Transit Precautions 

To safeguard against damage during transit, transport the instrument to the 

installation site in the same container used for transportation from the factory 

if circumstances permit.

Installation

A. Location

For proper operation of the GT1600 flowmeter it must be mounted within

6 degrees of true vertical, with the inlet connection at the bottom of the

meter, and the outlet at the top. The use of a plumb-bob, level or other

device to assure vertical positioning is recommended.

B. Piping Arrangement

It is strongly recommended that the typical piping arrangement shown in

Figure 2-1, be used when installing the meter. This piping arrangement

permits the meter to be isolated from the flow for servicing or cleaning.

The design of the GT1600 flowmeter allows the horizontal inlet and outlet

end fitting to rotate independently of each other simply by loosening the

two clamp bolts for each end fitting at the rear of the meter. Additionally

the various end fittings offer horizontal or vertical connections or a

combination of both.
