Location in the system
The optimum location in the system depends on the application:
● Liquid applications
Gas or vapor bubbles in the fluid may result in erroneous measurements, particularly in the density measurement.
– Do not install the flowmeter at the highest point in the system, where bubbles will be trapped.
– Install the flowmeter in low pipeline sections, at the bottom of a U-section in the pipeline.
