Important Safety Information!

CAUTION:

(Standard version) Never remove the flow sensor from a pressurized pipe. Always wear safety face protection during sensor installation/removal.

(Hot-Tap version) Follow the recommended installation/removal instructions in this manual. Always wear safety face protection during sensor installation/removal.

Pipe fittings MUST be installed by a certified welder only. OMEGA will not assume liability of any kind for improper fitting installations.

Serious bodily injury and/or damage to the sensor can result if the conditions and specifications presented in this manual are exceeded. DO NOT exceed specifications under any circumstances.

The FP-6000 Hot-Tap system's overall specifica- tions and limitations depend on the lowest maxi- mum rating of the components associated with the system. In other words, the Hot-Tap system is only as strong as its weakest link. For example, a ball valve, a component of the system, is rated at a maximum 100 psi @ 185 °F, limiting the entire system's maximum pressure/temperature rating to 100 psi @ 185 °F. All higher maximum specifica- tions MUST yield to the component with the lowest maximum specification.

Maximum Operating Pressure: 225 psi (15 bar)

Maximum Operating Temperature:

212 °F (100 °C)
