4.5 Vibrations
Locate the flowmeter as far away as possible from components that generate mechanical vibration
in the piping.
Or ensure that there is no direct connection with
them e.g. by using flexible connections.
The flowmeter can also be located after a bend.
4.6 Cross-talk
If the flowmeters are located close to each other, e.g. in the same pipe section, the meters may
disturb each other in measurement, especially with low flow. Locate the meters with a flexible
connection instead of a permanent connection.
Avoid mounting the meter on the same steel frame. i.e. insulate the meters mechanically.
4.7 Magnetic fields
Locate the sensor a minimum of 10 inches (25 cm) from strong magnetic fields (motors,
transformers, electrically operated valves, etc.).
4.8 Transportation/
storage
The sensor is a fragile piece of equipment and shall be placed in its storage carton when
transported or stored. If this is not possible, the sensor must be packed so the packing enclosure
can withstand the hazards from transportation or storage.
