8.2 Installation procedure
The following steps explain the procedure of an appropriate installation.
Determination of the insertion depth of the sensor
The sensor tip must be placed in the center of the pipe. For this the
probe shaft has a scale. To determine the right position please calculate
the insertion depth as described below.
Center installation is the default and recommended installation type.
Insertion depth= x+ y
x=
OD
2
;OD is Outer Diameter of the pipe
y=length of the ball valve
Calculation example:
A 2”-diameter pipe and an 87 mm-
length ball valve:
OD=60.3 mm
x=
OD
2
=
60.3 mm
2
=30.15 mm
y=87 mm ;
Insertion depth
= 30.15 mm +87 mm=117.15mm
