Installation Requirements:
Minimum Straight Pipe Length Requirements - The meter's accuracy is affected by disturbances such as pumps, elbows, tees, valves, etc., in the flow stream. Install the meter in a straight run of pipe as far as possible from any disturbances. The distance required for accuracy is 10 times the nominal pipe diameter before the meter and 4 times the nominal pipe diameter after the meter.
Mounting location:
- F series meters must be mounted at the vertical (twelve o'clock) position in a horizontal run of pipe.
- Must be mounted on horizontal pipe only.
- U & D series meters must be mounted on vertical pipe only.
- The pipe must be completely full of water at all times.
- See the minimum straight length of pipe requirement chart above.
- The meter can accurately measure flow from one direction only.
