Inlet and outlet condition
To achieve most accurate flow measurement it is essential to have certain straight inlet and
outlet pipe lengths as shown (D
i
: sensor diameter). MAG 8000 CT is approved for installation
with 0D of straight pipe upstream from the sensor and 0D of straight pipe downstream from
the sensor. It is, however, recommended to follow the installation guidelines for the MAG 8000
Standard water meter for optimal measurement performance.
Sensor must be completely full of liquid
Therefore avoid:
● Air in pipe.
● Installation at the highest point in pipe system.
● Installation in vertical pipes with free outlet.
