Figure 16: Using reducers
Determine the resulting pressure loss when using reducers:
1. Determine diameter ratios d/D.
2. .Determine the flow velocity based on the flow rate
nomogram (Figure 17).
3. Read the pressure loss on the Y-axis in Figure 17.

Figure 18: 3A compliant installation
Please observe the following points:
A
Do not install the device vertically with the terminal box
or transmitter housing pointing downward.
B
The ‘angel bracket’ option is not 3A compliant.
C
Please make sure that the leakage hole of the process
connection is located at the lowest point of the installed
device.
• A vertical mounting position is preferred. For a horizontal
mounting position, make sure that the sensor is installed
to be self-draining.
• Make sure that the cover of terminal box and / or
transmitter housing is properly sealed. There can be no
gaps between the housing and the cover.
Only devices with the following process connections fulfill 3A
compliance.
• Welded
spuds
• Tri-clamp
