When installing two or more magnetic owmeters, provide a distance of at least 5D (D is size of model code) each other. If diameters of them are di󰀨erent, let D be the

larger one.

with the magnetic eld, induced signal voltages, or ow velocity distributions of the owmeter.

*2: A straight run may not be required on the downstream

side of the owmeter. However, if a downstream valve or other tting causes irregularity or deviation in ows, provide a straight run of 2D to 3D on the downstream side.

*3: The valves shall be mounted on the downstream side so

that deviated ows do not occur in the sensor and to avoid

startup from an empty condition.

*4: In case the piping conditions are compounded, install

on the straight pipe section where the upstream part is su󰀩ciently rectied.

(4) Maintaining Stable Fluid Conductivity

(5) Precautions for Use of Liquid Sealing

Compounds

Care must be taken in using liquid sealing compounds on the piping, as it may have a negative inuence on the ow indications by owing out and covering the

surfaces of an electrode or grounding ring. In particular,

care must be taken if a liquid sealing compound is used in the case of vertical piping.

(6) Service Area

Select locations where there is adequate space to service installing, wiring, overhauling, etc.

(7) Bypass Line

It is recommended to install a bypass line to facilitate

maintenance and zero adjustment.

Block valve

Do not install the owmeter where uid conductivity tends to become uneven. If chemicals are fed near the upstream side of a magnetic owmeter, they may a󰀨ect the ow rate’s indications. To avoid this situation, it is recommended that the chemical feed ports be located on the downstream side of the owmeter. If it is unavoidable that chemicals must be fed on the upstream side, provide a su󰀩cient straight pipe length (approximately 50D or more) to ensure the proper mixture of uids.

CAUTION

Do not secure the owmeter separately to prevent the vibrations, shocks, and expansion and contraction forces of the piping from a󰀨ecting it. Fix the pipes rst, then support the owmeter with the pipes.

Magnetic flowmeter

To release the load from installing the owmeter to the pipeline, set a expansive pipe in the downstream side.

 Avoid air bubbles.

If air bubbles enter a measurement pipe, ow rate indications may be a󰀨ected and measurement errors

may be caused.

In cases where uids contain air bubbles, piping must be designed to prevent them from accumulating in the

measurement pipe of a sensor.

If a valve exists near the owmeter, try to mount the owmeter on the valve’s upstream side in order to prevent a possible reduction of pressure inside the pipe, thereby avoiding the possibility of air bubbles.

 Mounting orientation

Install the magnetic owmeter so that the electrodes position is not perpendicular to the ground. Otherwise it may cause the measuring errors because air bubbles at upper side or slurry at downside covers the electrode. Mount the terminal box of a remote sensor and the transmitter of an integral owmeter above the piping to prevent water from entering them.

Installation

 Pipes must be fully lled with liquids.

It is essential that pipes remain fully lled at all times, otherwise ow rate indications may be a󰀨ected and

measurement errors may be caused.

Piping shall be designed so as to maintain the interior of the sensor lled with uids. Vertical mounting is e󰀨ective in such cases as when uids tend to separate or solid matter may be precipitated. When employing vertical mounting, direct the uids from the bottom to the top to ensure that the pipes remain fully lled.

3.2 Handling Precautions

WARNING

The magnetic owmeter is a heavy instrument. Be careful that no damage is caused to personnel through accidentally dropping it, or by exerting excessive force on the magnetic owmeter. When moving the magnetic owmeter, always use a trolley and have at least two people carry it.

This section describes the remote sensor as an example. The same attention must be paid to the integral owmeter.

3.2.1 General Precautions

(1) Precaution during Transportation

The magnetic owmeter is packed tightly. When it is unpacked, pay attention to prevent damaging the owmeter. To prevent accidents while it is being transported to the installing location, transport it to the site in its original packing.

CAUTION

(2) Avoid Shocks from Impact

CAUTION

Care should be taken not to drop the owmeter or expose it to excessive shock. In particular, be careful not to subject the ange surface to shock. This may lead to lining damage which will result in inaccurate

readings.

(3) Flange Protection Covers

Keep the protective covering (i.e. the corrugated cardboard or other cushioning material) in place over the ange except when mounting the owmeter to the

pipe.

(4) Terminal Box Cover

As it is possible that the insulation will deteriorate, do not open the terminal box cover until it is time to wire it.

(5) Long-term Non-use

When lifting the magnetic owmeter, use the lifting rings

(eye bolts or eye plates) as in Figure 3.2.1.

Never lift it using a bar passed through the magnetic owmeter as this damages the liner severely.

90 degrees or less

Eye bolt Eye plate

Figure 3.2.1 Lifting Flowmeter

90 degrees or less

It is not desirable to leave the owmeter unused for a long term after installation. If this situation is unavoidable, take care of the owmeter by observing the following.

 Conrmation of sealing conditions for the

owmeter

Conrm that the terminal box screw and electrical connections are well sealed. Equip the conduit piping with drain plugs or waterproof glands to prevent moisture or water from penetrating into the owmeter through the

conduit.

 Regular inspections

Inspect the sealing conditions as mentioned above, and the inside of the terminal box at least once a year. Also, due to rain, etc. when it is suspected that water may have penetrated into the inside of the owmeter, perform

supplementary inspections.

3.2.2 Flowmeter Piping

CAUTION

Misaligned or slanted piping can lead to leakage and damage to the anges.

(1) Correct any misaligned or slanted piping, and any

gaps that may exist between mounting anges before installing the owmeter (see Figure 3.2.2).

Slanted

Figure 3.2.2 Slanted and Misaligned Flowmeter Piping

(2) Inside a newly installed pipeline, there may be some

foreign substances such as residue from welding or wood chips. Remove them by ushing the piping before mounting the owmeter. This prevents the lining from being damaged, as well as the occurrence

of erroneous measured signals resulting from foreign

substances passing through the sensor during

measurement.

Misaligned

3.3 Integral Flowmeter and Remote Sensor Installation

WARNING

• All gaskets used for piping of Magnetic Flowmeters should be prepared by customers except in some

cases.

With the option of grounding ring, if the lining is

natural hard rubber or PTFE, gaskets must be placed between each the grounding ring and the sensor to avoid uid leakage. These gaskets are to be supplied by customer. Do not forget those gaskets also when ordering and attaching the

grounding rings later additionally.

• Use the gasket of the equivalent hardness for gasket (customer pipe) and gasket (sensor).

• The tightening torque of gaskets varies by the type and external dimensions of the lining and the gasket. The tightening torque values should be

decided by referring to Table 3.3.1.

• For uids capable of potentially permeating PTFE linings (such as nitric acid, hydrouoric acid, or sodium hydrate at high temperatures), do not use the PTFE lining type.

Installation

• The PTFE lining has a structure adhering PTFE to the metal inner face of the sensor. When tightening bolts and nuts to install to the piping, be careful not to bring unequal stress or torque to the PTFE lining.

• For the PTFE lining, it is recommendedo be installed with grounding rings, or to be installed with short

pipes at upstream and downstream sides.

Use bolts and nuts in compliance with the ange ratings. When choosing the gaskets, be sure to choose sheet gaskets designed to t for ange standard.

IM 01E25A01-01EN

IMPORTANT

<3. Installation>

(1) Mounting Direction

Mount the owmeter so that the ow direction of the uid to be measured is in line with the direction of the arrow mark on the owmeter. It may be especially di󰀩cult to move large size sensors after bringing them into the pit. Check directions before bringing.

If it is impossible to match the direction of the arrow mark, the direction of the electrical connection can be changed. Read Section 3.5. In case the uid being measured ows against the arrow direction, change the value from “Forward” to “Reverse” at the parameter “Flow direct”. Read the user’s manual of the applicable communication type (for AXW/AXW4A/AXG1A) or the hardware/software

edition (for AXFA11) as listed in Table 1.1.

(4) Applying Gasket and optional Grounding

Rings

Gasket:

Necessary gaskets for piping connection are as below depending on the choice of grounding rings. Use sheet gaskets designed to t for the ange ratings ad uid specications. The GF type-1 gaskets by JIS G 3443-2 should be used for the JIS F12 ange models in sizes 1100 mm (44 in.) and above. In this case, the gasket groove is required on the customer pipe anges. The thickness of gasket should be 2 mm (0.08 in.) to 5 mm (0.2 in.) for sizes up to 1000 mm (40 in.), and 5 mm (0.2 in.) or more for larger sizes. Use soft rubber gasket, PTFE-sheathed non-asbestos gasket, or its equivalent in hardness.
