F030101.EPS
IMPORTANT
Please install the flow tube to the location where
it is not exposed to direct sunlight and ambient
temperature is –10 to + 60°C (14 to 140°F).
(2) Noise Rejection
IMPORTANT
The instrument should be installed away from
large electrical motors, transformers and other
power sources in order to avoid interference with
the measurement.
(3) Length of Straight Run
To keep accurate measuring, JIS B7554 “Electro
Magnetic Flow Tubes” explains about upstream piping
condition of Magnetic Flow Tubes.
We recommend to our customers about the piping
conditions shown in Figure 3.1.1 based on JIS B7554
and our piping condition test data.
(4) Liquid Conductivity
IMPORTANT
Please avoid to install the flow tube at location
where liquid conductivity is likely to be nonuniform. Because it is possible to have bad
influences to the flow indication by non-uniform
conductivity when a chemical liquid is injected
from upstream side close to the flow tube. When
this occurs, it is recommended that chemical
application ports are installed on the downstream
side of the flow tube. In case chemicals must be
added upstream side, please keep the pipe
length enough so that liquid is properly mixed.

(12) Grounding
IMPORTANT
Improper grounding can have an adverse affect
on the flow measurement. Please ensure that
the instrument is properly grounded.
The electromotive force of the magnetic flow tube is
minute and it is easy to be affected by noise. And also
that reference electric potential is the same as the
measuring fluid potential. Therefore, the reference
electric potential (terminal potential) of the Flow Tube
and the Converter/Amplifier also need to be the same
as the measuring fluid. And moreover, that the potential must be the same with ground.
Please be sure to ground according to Figure 3.1.7.

equal elasticity. In case of optional code/FRG,
please use rubber gasket or others which has
equal elasticity. Be sure the inner diameter of
the gasket does not protrude to inner piping.
(Refer to Table 3.3.8)
(1) Mounting Direction
Please mount the Magnetic Flow Tube matching the
flow direction of the fluid to be measured with the
direction of the arrow mark on the flow tube.
IMPORTANT
NOTE
When installing a size 150mm with JIS F12
(JIS75M) flange, please displace in circumferential direction slightly because the cover of
electrode chamber will interfere against the bolts.
(4) Tightening Nuts
Please tighten the bolts according to Torque Values in
Table 3.3.5. In case of PVC piping, please select
optional code/FRG, use rubber gasket and tighten with
the torque value in Table 3.3.6.
CAUTION
In case of PFA lining type as the lining material
is Fluorocarbon PFA, it is possible that nuts
loose by its character as time passes. Please
tighten the nuts regularly.
Please be sure to tighten the bolts following
prescribed torque values. Please tighten the
flange bolts diagonally with the same torque
values, step by step up to the prescribed torque
value.
If it is impossible to match the direction, please
never remodel to change direction of the terminal box. In case the measuring fluid flows
against the arrow direction, please refer to the
section “Reversing Flow Direction” in the Instruction Manual of AM11 Magnetic Flow Converter.
(2) Mounting Centering Devices
To keep concentricity between the Flow Tube and
pipes, centering devices must be used. Pass two
through-bolts through the four centering devices (two
for each) and lower adjacent holes of both flanges.
(Refer to Figure 3.3.4)
Please give attention to the nominal size and flange
ratings of the centering devices. (Refer to Table 3.3.7)
(3) Positioning Flow Tube
Position the Flow Tube coming in contact four centering devices with Mini-Flanges. At this time, pay
attention to avoid four centering devices come in
contact with Housing. In case stud type of throughbolts are used, position them coming in contact four
centering devices with thread of the bolts. (Refer to
Figure 3.3.4) After positioning the Flow Tube, pass
remaining through-bolts to remaining holes.
Nuts
Please use appropriate
bolts and nuts
according to Process
connection.
