7.2 GENERAL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
The probe must be installed at the point of average axial speed, which is located at 1/8 of the internal diameter
of the pipe (Fig. 58).
The meter axis must intercept the pipe axis (Fig. 59).
The pipe must always be full of liquid (see Fig. 60).
7.2.1 Care of the device
The measuring head of the insertion sensor is a delicate part of the measuring instrument and must be
handled with care.
By removing or inserting the measuring head in the pipe, make sure that the valve is completely open to avoid
damage to the sensor. If there is no valve, check that the insertion sleeve is not obstructed. Any damage to
the measuring head could compromise the meter and its performance.
Any physical damage to the sensor probe will void the warranty.
