Mounting location
A0028772
To prevent measuring errors arising from accumulation of gas bubbles in the measuring tube, avoid
the following mounting locations in the pipe:
• Highest point of a pipeline.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a down pipe.
Orientation
The direction of the arrow on the sensor nameplate helps you to install the sensor according to the
flow direction (direction of medium flow through the piping).

1)
Applications with low process temperatures may decrease the ambient temperature. To maintain the
minimum ambient temperature for the transmitter, this orientation is recommended.
2)
Applications with high process temperatures may increase the ambient temperature. To maintain the
maximum ambient temperature for the transmitter, this orientation is recommended.
If a sensor is installed horizontally with a curved measuring tube, match the position of the sensor to
the fluid properties.
