3.4 Installation conditions
3.4.1 Supporting the meter
Support for meters with flange connections
1
The meter can be supported directly by its body
2
The meter can also be supported by the process pipework
Support for meters with hygienic connections
1
Always support the meter body.
2
DO NOT use the process pipework to support the weight of the meter. The thin wall of the pipework usually used in the
hygienic industry, is not strong enough to carry the weight of the meter.
CAUTION!
If there is excessive vibration in the process pipework, you must isolate the meter from its
mounting. It is recommended that you place an insert made from rubber (or similar material)
between the meter body, or pipework, and the mounting clamp or fixing point. For more
information, contact the manufacturer.
