• Mounting orientation
If electrodes are perpendicular to the ground, air
bubbles near the top or precipitates at the bottom
may cause measurement errors. Ensure that the
converterofanintegralowmeteraremounted
above the piping to prevent water from entering

Be careful that no damage is caused to
personnel through accidentally dropping it, or
by exerting excessive force on the magnetic
