4 INSTALLATION
This should be made in a point that guarantees that the pipe is always completely full.
Avoid high points of the pipes where air pockets usually form, or pipes with falling flow
where vacuums can form.
Partially full pipes can produce important reading errors.
Flow rate measurement with open discharge makes it necessary to install the flowmeter in
a pipe section with a siphon which avoids stagnation of air in the sensor.
3 HANDLING
It should always be done with care and without knocks.
The large diameter sensors have rings for holding the elevation elements. If the flowmeter
is held using slings, these should hold on the sensor and not on the electronics housing
(see drawing).
