6. INSTALLATION
6.1 Piping Guidelines (See page 18 for jacketed type.)
(1) Flush the piping assembly.
Flushing must be performed before meter installation. Install a short pipe in place of the meter at this
time (see diagram below).
(1) In case flow direc-
tion is from L to R,
change places of
meter and strainer.
(2) Arrange piping so as
to facilitate drainage.
(3) Strainer should be
inspected on a
regular basis.
6.4 Example of
Faulty Piping
Do not install the meter
in a position like this.
NOTE: For outline dimensions and pipe connection dimensions, see approval drawing.
(2) Install the meter free from pipe strains.
(3) The meter must be installed on the discharge side of the pump.
(4) If the meter is to be used under tank head, give a head greater than the pressure losses of the piping
system, strainer, meter, etc.
NOTE: Pressure losses of Ultra Oval and strainers are stated on the general specifications.
(5) The meter installation is correct if the flow direction conforms to the arrow mark on the meter body.
(6) The strainer should be located upstream of, and as close to the meter as possible.
(7) Since the sensor in Ultra Oval operates on the principle of sensing changes in magnetic flux density,
it must be isolated from the influence of any external magnetic flux. In order to minimize the influence
of external magnetic flux, select an installation location at least 5 meters away from existing power
equipment and conductors - potential sources of creating strong magnetic and electric fields, such as
motors and generators.
(8) In case electric heating is desired, consult the factory.

Typical Ultra Oval Installations
6.2 Standard Installation, Horizontal Line
6.3 Standard Installation,
Vertical Line
(1) Install in the bypass line to
prevent scales falling from
top of the piping assembly.
(2) If the flow direction is from
top to bottom, change places
of meter and strainer.
