(max. 30°) will help to avoid these problem areas, but use caution. Excessive angles will cause bearing drag at lower flow rates.

On a vertical pipe run locate the sensor where the flow is upward. If downward flow is necessary the system must be designed to prevent air/water vapor pockets from developing in the pipe which will affect the performance of the sensor.

Sensor Installation Range

Vertical mounting is recom- mended to provide best overall performance.

Special Considerations

For Hot-Tap installations allow at least 3 feet of vertical clearance for sensor installation plus the distance required for the isolation valve and fittings attached to the pipe. More clearance may be necessary to suit the drilling machine used during sensor installation.

2.3 Sensor Wiring

Both Standard and Hot-Tap sensor versions include 25 feet of cable. The cable may be extended up to 200 feet without amplification. A 1/2 inch conduit port is available in the sensor to install the cable in protective conduit.
