5 Installation in the pipeline • Installation material not included, to be provided by customer (stud bolts, nuts, gaskets, etc.) • Pipe flanges and operating pressure: refer to tables on “limits” in Section 11. • Distance between pipe flanges see fitting dimension “a”, in Section 10 “Dimensions and weights”. • Position of flanges Install flowmeter in line with the pipe axis. Pipe flange faces must be parallel to each other, max. permissible deviation: Lmax - Lmin ≤ 0.5 mm Lmax - Lmin ≤ 0.

7 • • Grounding All flowmeters must be properly grounded to avoid personnel shock hazard. The ground conductor should not transmit any interference voltages, therefore do not ground any other electrical devices together with this conductor. ALTOFLUX M900 separate primary head with terminal box • • An FE functional ground must always be connected.
