nsertion Mounting Instructions - Compression Fittings
The MTI10 is mounted through a ¾" hole and a ¾" female NPT half
coupling provided in the customer's pipe. Insertion style flowmeters are
not designed for use in pipes smaller than 1½".
•
Install the compression fitting into the ¾-inch female NPT half
coupling.
•
When installing in a 50mm (2") pipe or larger, install the end of the
probe 22mm (0.87") past the center line of the pipe and tighten the
compression fitting nut (refer to Figure 2.2 on page 10).
• When installing into a 40mm (1.5") pipe carefully install the probe
into the pipe until it touches the opposite wall and pull back 3mm
(0.1”). Tighten the compression fitting nut.
Caution:
Once the compression fitting is locked onto the probe, the
probe can be removed or rotated, but the insertion depth is locked in
place.
Note:
Do not overtighten compression fitting.
Fig. 2.6: Proper Tightening of the Compression Fitting Nut
While holding the fitting body steady, tighten the nut one and one-quarter turn to the 9
o'clock position.
