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 48-in. flanged magnetic flowmeters

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:

• High-vibration lines with integrally mounted transmitters

• 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.

Quick Install Guide 7

Quick Install Guide May 2019

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.

Figure 3-1: Upstream and downstream straight pipe diameters

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
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.

Figure 3-2: Flow direction arrow

May 2019 Quick Install Guide

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.

Figure 3-3: Sensor orientation

A. Flow direction

Quick Install Guide 9

Quick Install Guide May 2019

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 Figure 3-4.

Figure 3-4: Electrode orientation

A. Correct orientation
B. Incorrect orientation

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

4 Sensor installation

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.

Figure 4-1: Gasket placement for flanged sensors

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

2. Snug downstream

3. Tighten upstream

4. Tighten downstream

Quick Install Guide 11

Quick Install Guide May 2019

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.

5 Process reference connection

The figures shown in this section illustrate best practice installations for
process reference connections only. For installations in conductive, unlined
pipe it may be acceptable to use one ground ring or one lining protector to
establish a process reference connection. Earth safety ground is also
required as part of this installation, but is not shown in the figures. Follow
national, local, and plant electrical codes for safety ground.

Use Table 5-1 to determine which process reference option to follow for
proper installation.
