□
Install the sensor so that the flow direction arrow on the sensor matches the actual
forward flow of the process.
1.2 Best practices
The following information can help you get the most from your sensor.
• There are no pipe run requirements for Micro Motion sensors. Straight runs of pipe
upstream or downstream are unnecessary.
• If the sensor is installed in a vertical pipeline, liquids and slurries should flow upward
through the sensor. Gases may flow upward or downward.
• Keep the sensor tubes full of process fluid.
• For halting flow through the sensor with a single valve, install the valve downstream
from the sensor.
• Minimize bending and torsional stress on the meter. Do not use the meter to align
misaligned piping.
• The sensor does not require external supports. The flanges will support the sensor in
any orientation.
