5.1.2 Installation instructions
• To ensure optimal readability of the local display, adjust the housing and local display
• Endress+Hauser offers a mounting bracket to mount the device on pipes or walls
• When measuring in media containing solids (e.g. dirty liquids), installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment
• Using a valve manifold allows for easy commissioning, installation and maintenance
without interrupting the process
• When mounting the device, establishing the electrical connection and during operation:
prevent the penetration of moisture into the housing
• Point the cable and plug downwards as much as possible to prevent moisture from entering
(e.g. rainwater or condensation)
5.1.3 Installing pressure piping
• For recommendations for routing pressure piping, refer to DIN 19210 "Differential pressure
piping for flow measurement devices" or the corresponding national or international
standards
• When routing the pressure piping outdoors, ensure sufficient anti-freeze protection, e.g. by
using pipe heat tracing
• Install the pressure piping with a monotonic gradient of at least 10%
5.2 Mounting the device
5.2.1 Flow measurement
Flow measurement in gases
Mount the device above the measuring point so that condensate can drain into the process
pipe.
Flow measurement in vapors
• Mount the device below the measuring point
• Mount the condensate traps at the same height as the tapping points and at the same
distance to the device
• Prior to commissioning, fill the piping to the height of the condensate traps
Flow measurement in liquids
• Mount the device below the measuring point so that the piping is always filled with liquid
and gas bubbles can run back into the process pipe
• When measuring in media with solid parts, such as dirty liquids, installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment

the side flange on the low-pressure side
5.2.4 Differential pressure measurement
Differential pressure measurement in gases and vapors
Mount the device above the measuring point so that condensate can drain into the process
pipe.
Differential pressure measurement in liquids
• Mount the device below the measuring point so that the piping is always filled with liquid
and gas bubbles can run back into the process pipe
• When measuring in media with solid parts, such as dirty liquids, installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment
