3.1 INSTALLATION SITE SELECTION

Install the ow meter where it will be accessible for personnel to perform necessary periodic

maintenance. The clearance required for installation is typically 30-36” from the pipe wall

to the nearest obstruction above the valve assembly. This clearance dimension will increase

with larger diameter pipes. Refer to Section 1.6 WORKING ENVIRONMENT for additional

considerations.

ONICON insertion style ow meters must also be correctly oriented in the pipe with respect

to the direction of ow.

The drawings above illustrate the relationship between ow direction and the orientation of the

meter when installed in the pipe. Contact ONICON for assistance if this relationship does not

allow for proper installation.

GENERAL PRACTICES:

1. For best results, install the ow meter in a straight run of pipe, free of bends, tees,

valves, transitions and obstructions.

2. Straight run requirements vary based on the nature of the upstream obstruction.

See the table on page 12 for guidelines in determining upstream straight run

requirements. Depending upon specic location details, more or less straight run

may be required to produce a satisfactory ow prole.

3. If there is insufcient straight run, allow 80% of the run upstream and 20% of

the run downstream. If the total length of straight run is less than 75% of the

recommended distance, performance may seriously degrade, and consideration

should be given to installing a ow conditioner.

Flow Direction

The drawings above illustrate the relationship between

flow direction and display orientation for standard meters.
