GF92 In-line Body Length Verification
The GF92 flow element's mounting shape is a cylindrical pipe, with a customer specified "A" length
(see Figures 5 and 6) with process connections as ordered. The minimum recommended clearance
length in the process media pipe is 7.25 inches (184 mm).

GF92 Butt Weld
When welding the butt weld option into the process line, be sure the flow arrow with the machined flat
is facing up and the arrow is in the direction of flow. Also, be sure the wires to the remote enclosure are
disconnected from the integral enclosure. Ground the flow element before welding. Do not weld
anything to either the remote or local enclosures.
GF92 NPT Connection (Threaded Male or Female)
Apply sealant to male threads. Carefully place in the process media line with the machined flat facing
up, flat and level within ±2° for best results. The instruments threads are right-handed, tighten the
process connections.
GF92 Flange Mount
For flange mount flow element, attach the process mating flange with care. The correct orientation of
the flow element must be maintained to ensure the calibrated accuracy.
