9.2 Installation
The following steps explain the procedure of an appropriate installation.
9.2.1 Calculating the insertion depth
The sensor probe 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=117.15 mm
