1 Handling and Lifting Safety

CAUTION!

To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to equipment, follow all
lifting and handling instructions.

• Handle all parts carefully to prevent damage. Whenever possible,

transport the system to the installation site in the original shipping
container.

• PTFE-lined sensors are shipped with end covers that protect it from both

mechanical damage and normal unrestrained distortion. Remove the end
covers just before installation.

• Keep the shipping plugs in the conduit ports until you are ready to

connect and seal them. Appropriate care should be taken to prevent
water ingress.

• The sensor should be supported by the pipeline. Pipe supports are

recommended on both the inlet and outlet sides of the sensor pipeline.
There should be no additional support attached to the sensor.

• Use proper PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) including safety glasses

and steel toed shoes.

• Do not lift the meter by holding the electronics housing or junction box.

• The sensor liner is vulnerable to handling damage. Never place anything

through the sensor for the purpose of lifting or gaining leverage. Liner
damage can render the sensor useless.

• Do not drop the device from any height.

1.1 Lifting lugs

CAUTION!

If provided, use the lifting lugs on each flange to handle the Magnetic
Flowmeter when it is transported and lowered into place at the installation
site. If lifting lugs are not provided, the Magnetic Flowmeter must be
supported with a lifting sling on each side of the housing.

• Standard pressure 3-in. through 36-in. flanged magnetic flowmeters

come with lifting lugs.

• High pressure (above 600#) 1-in. through 24-in. flanged magnetic

flowmeters come with lifting lugs.

• Wafers and sanitary magnetic flowmeters do not come with lifting lugs.

3 Location and Position

3.1 Environmental considerations

To ensure maximum transmitter life, avoid extreme temperatures and
excessive vibration. Typical problem areas include the following:

• Tropical/desert installations in direct sunlight

• Outdoor installations in arctic climates

Remote mounted transmitters may be installed in the control room to
protect the electronics from the harsh environment and to provide easy
access for configuration or service.

3.2

Upstream and downstream piping

To ensure specified accuracy over widely varying process conditions, install
the sensor with a minimum of five straight pipe diameters upstream and two
pipe diameters downstream from the electrode plane.

Upstream and downstream straight pipe diametersFigure 3-1:

A. Five pipe diameters (upstream)
B. Two pipe diameters (downstream)
C. Flow direction

Installations with reduced upstream and downstream straight runs are
possible. In reduced straight run installations, the meter may not meet
absolute accuracy specifications. Reported flow rates will still be highly
repeatable.

3.3

Flow direction

The sensor should be mounted so that the arrow points in the direction of
flow.

November 2017 Quick Install Guide

Quick Install Guide 7

3.4 Sensor piping location and orientation

The sensor should be installed in a location that ensures it remains full during
operation. Depending on where it is installed, orientation must also be
considered.

• Vertical installation with upward process fluid flow keeps the cross-

sectional area full, regardless of flow rate.

• Horizontal installation should be restricted to low piping sections that are

normally full.

Sensor orientationFigure 3-3:

A. Flow direction

Quick Install Guide

November 2017

8 Rosemount 8700 Magnetic Flowmeter Sensor

3.5 Electrode orientation

The electrodes in the sensor are properly oriented when the two
measurement electrodes are in the 3 and 9 o’clock positions or within 45
degrees from the horizontal, as shown on the left side of Figure 3-4. Avoid any
mounting orientation that positions the top of the sensor at 90 degrees from
the vertical position as shown on the right of the Electrode Orientation
figure.

Electrode orientationFigure 3-4:

A. Correct orientation
B. Incorrect orientation

The sensor may require a specific orientation to comply with Hazardous Area
T-code rating. Refer to the approrpirate reference manual for any potential
restrictions.

4 Sensor Installation

4.1 Flanged sensors

Gaskets

The sensor requires a gasket at each process connection. The gasket material
must be compatible with the process fluid and operating conditions. Gaskets
are required on each side of a grounding ring (see Figure 4-1). All other
applications (including sensors with lining protectors or a grounding
electrode) require only one gasket on each process connection.

Note

Metallic or spiral-wound gaskets should not be used as they will damage the
liner face of the sensor. If spiral wound or metallic gaskets are required for
the application, lining protectors must be used.

Gasket placement for flanged sensorsFigure 4-1:

A. Grounding ring and gasket (optional)
B. Customer-supplied gasket

Bolts

Note

Do not bolt one side at a time. Tighten both sides simultaneously. Example:

1. Snug upstream

Quick Install Guide

November 2017

10 Rosemount 8700 Magnetic Flowmeter Sensor

2. Snug downstream

3. Tighten upstream

4. Tighten downstream

Do not snug and tighten the upstream side and then snug and tighten the
downstream side. Failure to alternate between the upstream and
downstream flanges when tightening bolts may result in liner damage.

Suggested torque values by sensor line size and liner type are listed in

Table 4-2 for ASME B16.5 flanges and Table 4-3 or Table 4-4 for EN flanges.

Consult the factory if the flange rating of the sensor is not listed. Tighten
flange bolts on the upstream side of the sensor in the incremental sequence
shown in Figure 4-2 to 20% of the suggested torque values. Repeat the
process on the downstream side of the sensor. For sensors with greater or
fewer flange bolts, tighten the bolts in a similar crosswise sequence. Repeat
this entire tightening sequence at 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% of the suggested
torque values.

If leakage occurs at the suggested torque values, the bolts can be tightened
in additional 10% increments until the joint stops leaking, or until the
measured torque value reaches the maximum torque value of the bolts.
Practical consideration for the integrity of the liner often leads to distinct
torque values to stop leakage due to the unique combinations of flanges,
bolts, gaskets, and sensor liner material.

Check for leaks at the flanges after tightening the bolts. Failure to use the
correct tightening methods can result in severe damage. While under
pressure, sensor materials may deform over time and require a second
tightening 24 hours after the initial installation.

Prior to installation, identify the lining material of the flow sensor to ensure
the suggested torque values are applied.

Alignment spacers

On 1.5 inch through 8 inch (40 through 200 mm) line sizes, Rosemount
requires installing the alignment spacers to ensure proper centering of the
wafer sensor between the process flanges. To order an Alignment Spacer Kit
(quantity 3 spacers) use p/n 08711-3211-xxxx where xxxx equals the dash

1. Insert studs for the the bottom side of the sensor between the pipe
flanges and center the alignment spacer in the middle of the stud. See

Figure 4-3 for the bolt hole locations recommended for the spacers

provided. Stud specifications are listed in Table 4-6.

2. Place the sensor between the flanges. Make sure the alignment spacers
are properly centered on the studs. For vertical flow installations slide the
o-ring over the stud to keep the spacer in place. See Figure 4-3. Ensure the
spacers match the flange size and class rating for the process flanges. See

Table 4-5.

3. Insert the remaining studs, washers, and nuts.

4. Tighten to the torque specifications shown in Table 4-7. Do not over­tighten the bolts or the liner may be damaged.

Gaskets

The sensor requires a gasket at each of its connections to adjacent devices or
piping. The gasket material selected must be compatible with the process
fluid and operating conditions.

Note

Gaskets are supplied between the IDF fitting and the process connection
fitting, such as a Tri-Clamp fitting, on all Rosemount 8721 Sanitary sensors
except when the process connection fittings are not supplied and the only
connection type is an IDF fitting.

Alignment and bolting

Standard plant practices should be followed when installing a magmeter with
sanitary fittings. Unique torque values and bolting techniques are not
required.
