To safeguard against damage during transit, transport the device to the
installation site in the same container used for transportation from the
factory, if circumstances permit.
Upon removal of the device from storage, a visual inspection should be
conducted to verify its "as-received" condition. If the device has been
subject to storage conditions in excess of those recommended (refer to
"2-3 Recommended Storage Practice" on p. 2-1), it should be subjected
to a pneumatic pressure test in accordance with applicable vessel codes.
To maintain a devices ultraclean integrity, this service should be
performed by the factory or one of the certified service centers.
Prior to installation, ensure that all piping is clean and free from
obstructions. Install piping in such a manner that permits easy access to
the device if removal becomes necessary.
It is recommended that an in-line filter be installed upstream from the
device to prevent the possibility of any foreign material entering the flow
sensor or control valve. The filtering element should be replaced
periodically or ultrasonically cleaned.
The recommended installation procedure guidelines are as follows:
• The device should be located in a clean, dry atmosphere relatively free
from shock and vibration.
• Leave sufficient room for access to the user interface, display and MAC
ID and baud rate switches (if equipped) at the top of the device.
• Install the device in such a manner that permits easy purge and removal
if the device requires servicing.
