Installation safety precautions

In applications with working pressures/media that can be dangerous to people,
surroundings, equipment or others in case of pipe fracture, we recommend that special
precautions such as special placement, shielding or installation of a security guard or a
security valve are taken when the sensor is mounted.
● Ensure that stresses and loading caused by e.g. earthquakes, traffic, high winds and fire
damage if appropriate are taken into account during installation.
● Ensure that the flowmeter is installed such that it does not act as a focus for pipeline
stresses. External loadings are not taken into account in the flowmeter design.
● Provide adequate protection to minimise any risk of contact with hot surfaces.
4.2

Determining a location

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before working on this product.
Upstream / Downstream
● Avoid long drop lines downstream from the sensor to prevent the meter pipe from
draining.
● Avoid installing the sensor upstream of a free discharge in a drop line where possible.
