11. nt Engineering Handbook R W Miller Form 4 20 23 11 10 Straight Pipe Run Requirements CV VBR Preso CV and VBR Model Venturi elements can be installed in any position with minimal straight pipe run requirements The recommended minimum lengths for these models are 5 pipe diameters upstream and 2 pipe diameters downstream Selecting a Mounting Location The primary Venturi station can be installed in any position on vertical or horizontal lines However on horizontal liquid lines where the risk of gas gas entrapment in the meter tubing is prevalent it is recommended to install the element with the connections below the horizontal center line For horizontal air or gas lines it is recommended to install the element with the connection above the horizontal centerline For steam lines to protect the transmitter it is recommended to install the element so that the connections are in the horizontal centerline on meters with the instrument taps in the same plane See Figure 5 for meters with instrument taps that are not in the same plane Make sure that the flow arrow or the indicated inlet is correctly oriented Other positions are acceptable provided proper venting of the secondary element is accomplished and differences in tap line elevations are considered Vertical installations may introduce a slight hydrostatic head effect which must be considered when zeroing a transmitter The use of a 3 valve manifold is recommended particularly for
