Alert: DO NOT change the orientation of the flow element in the enclosure as the interconnecting RTD and
heater wiring could be stressed and damaged. DO NOT apply any torque to the flow element
enclosure - only apply to the pipe surface itself.
Install the flow element, with the flow arrow (shown on Page 1) in the direction of media flow. The remote enclosure,
local enclosure, flow element and electronic transmitter serial numbers must all match.
For flange mount flow elements, attach the process mating flange with care. The correct orientation of the flow
element must be maintained to ensure the calibrated accuracy.
• Verify that the process media flow is in the same direction as the arrow on the flat machined area.
• Apply the appropriate gasket and/or sealant to flange mount as required.
• Mate flow element flange to process mount keeping flat oriented properly.
• Attach with bolt, two flat washers, lock washer and nut for each bolt hole, apply lubricant/sealant to male threads
and torque. Refer to ANISI B16.5 specifications.
For NPT pipe thread installations, apply sealant to the male threads. Carefully place in the process media line with the
machined flat facing up. Tighten the process connections. To avoid leaks do not overtighten or cross-thread
connections.
Shown below is the NPT mounting option. Other options are flange mount and butt weld mount. See the Installation
Section in the GF Series Manual, Document Number 06EN003229 for more details.
