Vibrations
Secure the piping and the sensor if vibration is severe.
Caution:
It is advisable to install the sensor and transmitter separately if vibration is exces-
sively severe. The sensor is shock and vibration resistant for acceleration up to 2 g
in accordance with IEC 68-2-6.
Foundations, supports
If the nominal diameter is 14” or larger, mount the sensor on a foundation of ad-
equate loadbearing strength.
Caution:
Do not allow the sensor casing to take the weight of the sensor. This would buckle
the casing and damage the internal magnetic coils.
Inlet and outlet runs
If possible, install the sensor well clear of fittings such as valves, T-pieces, elbows,
etc. Compliance with the following requirements for the inlet and outlet runs is
necessary in order to ensure measuring accuracy:
•
Inlet run
≥
5 x pipe diameter
•
Outlet run
≥
2 x pipe diameter
Adapters
With the help of the appropriate adapters (reducers and expanders) the sensor can
be mounted in a pipeline of a larger diameter. For slowly flowing fluids, the resulting
higher velocity increases the measuring accuracy.
