Section 3: Installation
Positioning of the transmitter
The positioning is critical, and should be the correct distance upstream from the flow structure
as stated in the relevant standard for your country. For example, in the ISO standards, the
distance should be four to five times the maximum height of the water (Hmax) for a thin plate
weir, or three to four times Hmax for a flume. For optimum accuracy, position the transmitter’s
front face at a height equal to the sum of the maximum flow depth plus the transmitter
deadband of 12.2 in. (300 mm) plus an extra 2 in. (50 mm).

It is important that the
bottom reference
of the transmitter should be related to the datum of
the primary measuring device (
