There is no rotor to stop turning in dirty water and there are no bearings to wear out.

INSTALLATION Piping. For best results, the EX sensor should be installed with at least ten diameters of straight pipe upstream and five downstream. Certain extreme situations such as partially-opened valves are particularly difficult and may require more straight diameters upstream. The 101 and 201 sensors are supplied with a 1-1/2" male pipe thread fitting. The 115 and 215 sensors have a 2” NPT thread, for compatability with the 2” isolation valve.

INSTALLATION PROPER DEPTH SETTING Depth Setting. It is important for accuracy that the sensor be inserted the correct depth into the pipe. Follow these steps: 1. In Table 1, find the model of sensor which you have. Take Dimension C from this table for the pipe size. 2. Subtract wall thickness of your pipe to find Dimension D. Use Table 2 if you do not know the thickness. AR CH IV ED "D" 3.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS General Electrical Guidelines: Grounding Guidelines: Whenever possible avoid running control cables in the same conduit with AC power. Use shielded control cable where this type of installation is necessary. • If using shielded cable, be sure that one end is grounded • Avoid routing flow sensor cables in close proximity to a variable frequency drive.
