Grounding
Step 5 Grounding
The sensor can be grounded via the piping if the joints in the pipeline are
Improper grounding can cause measurement error. Ground the flowmeter to earth, or follow ground network requirements for the facility.
If national standards are not in effect, follow these guidelines to ground the sensor:
•Use copper wire, 14 AWG (2,0 mm²) or larger wire size for grounding.
•Keep all ground leads as short as possible, less than 1 ohm impedance.
•Connect ground leads directly to earth, or follow plant standards.
