302 requires neither straight inlet nor straight outlet in order to fulfil the Measuring Instruments Directive
(MID) 2004/22/ EC and EN 1434:2007. A straight inlet section will only be necessary in case of heavy flow
disturbances before the meter. We recommend you to follow the guidelines of CEN CR 13582.
Optimal position can be obtained if you take the below-mentioned installation methods into consideration:
