Installation Procedure—Remote Mount to Orifice Meter or Cone Meter<br />

A <strong>Scanner</strong> <strong>2000</strong> can be mounted remotely and connected to an orifice meter or cone meter with tubing for<br />

liquid measurement (Figure 2.11). The setup of the meter run and plumbing configurations can vary widely,<br />

depending upon the challenges existing on location.<br />

CAUTION When measuring liquid, process connections must be designed to eliminate air pockets.<br />

This is achieved by mounting the sensor below the metering device and sloping all tubing<br />

downward from the meter to the sensor. A side-port MVT and block manifold (shown<br />

in Figure 2.11) is recommended to help prevent air bubbles from being trapped in the<br />

sensor.<br />

If a bottom-port MVT is used, the bottom process ports must be plugged or replaced with<br />

a drain valve, and side vents must be used for process connections. A block manifold is<br />

not recommended for use with bottom port MVTs. Contact a Cameron field representative<br />

for assistance.<br />

Positioning of sensor below the<br />

meter and slope of tubing helps<br />

prevent gas bubbles from entering<br />

the liquid<br />

can be used with an orifice meter as well.
