2. Sensor Mounting Position

• Horizontal pipe runs: Mount sensor in the upright (0°) position for best overall performance.
Mount at a maximum of 45° when air bubbles are present. Do not mount on the bottom of the
pipe when sediments are present.

• Vertical pipe runs: Sensor must be mounted in lines with UPWARD flow only.
