4.2

Straight pipe sections

They are necessary before and after the sensor. The minimum distances are the following:

Upstream

Downstream

In installations with turbulent ﬂow it may be necessary to increase these distances.

4.1 Sensor

position

The most adequate position is with the electrodes in a horizontal plane. In this way,
deposits of particles on the electrodes are avoided.
