Mount the sensor on a vibration-free wall or
steel frame as shown.
Ensure that the sensor is not emptied of liquid
(during normal operation) otherwise incorrect
measurement will occur.
With low flow, horizontal mounting is recom-
mended, as in this position air bubbles are
easier to remove.
Locate the sensor low in the system in order to
avoid an under-pressure in the sensor seperat-
ing air/gas in the liquid.
If the liquid is volatile or contains solid parti-
cles, vertical mounting is not recommended.
Always locate the flowmeter as far away as
possible from components that generate me-
chanical vibration in the piping.
Cross talk between sensors mounted close to
each other may disturb the measurement. To
avoid cross talk never mount more than one
meter on each frame and mount flexible hose
connections between the sensors as shown.

1. Installation of sensor
To facilitiate zero-point adjustment, a valve with
good shut-off should always be mounted in
connection with the sensor as a proper zero-
point setting is essential for a good accuarcy.
