5.2.1 Orientation
• Due to the orientation of the Deltabar M, there may be a shift in the measured value, i.e.
when the container is empty, the measured value does not display zero. You may correct
this zero point shift by a position adjustment in one of the following ways:
• Via the keys on the electronics module (→ 16, "Function of the operating elements")
• Via the operating menu (, "Position adjustment")
• Refer to the relevant national or international standards for general recommendations on
laying the piping.
• Using a three-valve or five-valve manifold allows for easy commissioning, installation and
maintenance without interrupting the process.
• When routing the impulse piping outdoors, ensure that sufficient anti-freeze protection is
used, e.g. by using pipe heat tracing.
• Lay the piping with a monotonic gradient of at least 10 %.
• Endress+Hauser offers a mounting bracket for mounting on pipes or walls (, "Wall and pipe
mounting (optional)").
Installation position for flow measurement
Flow measurement in gases
Mount the Deltabar M above the measuring point so that the condensate which may be
present, can run off into the process piping.
Mounting Deltabar M PMD55 FOUNDATION Fieldbus
8 Endress+Hauser
Flow measurement in vapors
• Mount the Deltabar M below the measuring point.
• Mount the condensate traps at the same level as the tapping points and at the same
distance to the Deltabar M.
• Prior to commissioning, fill the impulse piping to the height of the condensate traps.
Flow measurement in liquids
• Mount the Deltabar M below the measuring point so that the impulse piping is always filled
with liquid and gas bubbles can run back into the process piping.
• When measuring in media with solid parts, such as dirty liquids, installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment.
Installation position for level measurement
Level measurement in an open container
• Mount the Deltabar M below the lower measuring connection so that the impulse piping is
always filled with liquid.
• The low-pressure side is open to atmospheric pressure.
• When measuring in media with solid parts, such as dirty liquids, installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment.
Level measurement in a closed container
• Mount the Deltabar M below the lower measuring connection so that the impulse piping is
always filled with liquid.
• Always connect the low-pressure side above the maximum level.
• When measuring in media with solid parts, such as dirty liquids, installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment.
Level measurement in a closed container with superimposed steam
• Mount the Deltabar M below the lower measuring connection so that the impulse piping is
always filled with liquid.
• Always connect the low-pressure side above the maximum level.
• A condensate trap ensures constant pressure on the low-pressure side.
• When measuring in media with solid parts, such as dirty liquids, installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment.
Installation position for differential pressure measurement
Differential pressure measurement in gases and vapors
• Mount the Deltabar M above the measuring point so that the condensate which may be
present, can run off into the process piping.
• The low-pressure side is open to atmospheric pressure.
• When measuring in media with solid parts, such as dirty liquids, installing separators and
drain valves is useful for capturing and removing sediment.

5.2.2 Wall and pipe-mounting
Endress+Hauser offers the following mounting brackets for installing the device on pipes or
walls:
Standard design Heavy-duty version
A0031326 A0031327
The standard mounting bracket version is not suitable for use in an application subject to
vibrations.
The vibration resistance of the heavy-duty version of the mounting bracket has been
tested according to IEC 61298-3, see the "Vibration resistance" section in the Technical
Information.
When using a valve block, the block's dimensions must be taken into account.
Bracket for wall and pipe mounting including retaining bracket for pipe mounting and two
nuts.
Technical data (e.g. dimensions or order numbers for screws) see accessory document
SD01553P/00/EN.
Mounting Deltabar M PMD55 FOUNDATION Fieldbus
10 Endress+Hauser
Please note the following when mounting:
• To prevent the mounting screws from scoring, lubricate them with a multi-purpose grease
prior to mounting.
• In the case of pipe mounting, the nuts on the bracket must be tightened uniformly with a
torque of at least 30 Nm (22.13 lbf ft).
• For installation purposes, only use the screws with item number (2) (see the following
diagram).
NOTICE
Incorrect handling!
Damage of the device!
‣Disassembly of the screws with item number (1) is not permissible under any
circumstances and will result in loss of warranty.
