The flow sensor Superstatic 440 can be operated from 0,5 bar pipe pressure.
To prevent
cavitation
the operating pressure with a flow sensor Superstatic 440
must follow the recommendation in the table below. The Superstatic 440 must
not be exposed to pressures below ambient pressure.

Horizontal Mounting Position
Horizontal Mounting position
The sensor head MUST be placed to the side +/- 45° in relation to the pipe axis
to avoid influences of air inclusions (top) or dirt (bottom).
Vertical mounting position
Mounting in upward or downward pipes possible.
General notice for mounting:
After mounting and before commissioning purge system > 10 min at qp to avoid
air bubbles.
