In order to ensure a high precision of the measure and good stability of
the „flow zero" point, the transmitter must be installed into the
processed medium at least 24 H before calibration (electrode
passivation).
Dismounting precautions:
All precautions must be taken before removing the transmitter
depending on the process used as the pipe may contain dangerous /
agressive hot fluids or fluids with high temperatures or pressures.
3.1.1 Mounting positions
The 8045 electromagnetic flow transmitter can be mounted in the following ways to obtain
an accurate flow measurement although the piping should be designed to ensure that the
pipe is maintained full at all times to avoid inaccurate measurement.
Mounting horizontally
Flow direction
Mounting vertically
When mounting vertically ensure that the flow direction is in an
upward direction as indicated by the arrow.
Always mount the transmitter upstream a possible injection point in
the pipe of a high-conductivity product (acid, base, saline,...).
It is advisable to mount the transmitter at a 45° angle
to the horizontal centre of the pipe as shown in the
diagram to avoid having deposits on the electrodes
and false measurements due to air bubbles.
