Chapter 10 Appendix2-Insertion transducer
10.1. Overview
W210 type insertion transducers can be installed into metal pipelines via an
isolation ball valve (installation into pipelines of plastic or other materials may
require an optional mounting seat). The maximum pipe diameter in which insertion
transducers can be installed is DN2000. Fluid temperature range: +10
℃
~+80oC.
Sensor cable length (9m standard) normally can be extended to as long as 100m.
Figure 1 shows a diagram of the W210 Insertion Transducer. The insertion
transducer is attached to its mounting base (which is welded to the pipe section at
the measurement point) via a ball valve. When the transducer is removed, pipe
fluids can be contained by shutting off the ball valve. Therefore, installation and
extraction of the transducer can be performed without relieving pipeline pressure.
An O-ring seal and joint nut guarantee user safety while installing or operating the
transducer.

10.2. Measurement point selection
To guarantee highly accurate measurement results, it is necessary to select an
appropriate measurement point before installing the transducer. For examples of
measuring point selection, see the related section in the manual.
