Adapters
Suitable adapters to DIN EN 545 (double-flange reducers) can be used to install the sensor in larger-
diameter pipes. The resultant increase in the rate of flow improves measuring accuracy with very
slow-moving fluids. The nomogram shown here can be used to calculate the pressure loss caused
by reducers and expanders.
The nomogram only applies to liquids with a viscosity similar to that of water.
1. Calculate the ratio of the diameters d/D.
2. From the nomogram read off the pressure loss as a function of flow velocity (downstream from
the reduction) and the d/D ratio.
