Azbil MagneW FLEX+ User Manual

Installation Azbil Corporation
2-10 MagneW FLEX+/PLUS+ Electromagnetic Flowmeter Detector
Gaskets
Gaskets are supplied with the grounding ring, except when it is made of SUS
material. If you are using SUS material, you must provide the gaskets. Azbil
Corporation recommends joint sheet or polytetraouroethylene (PTFE) gasket
material. For the inner (bore) diameters of the gaskets, see the following table.
Rubber gaskets are not recommended.
CAUTION
Using a gasket with too small a diameter can aect the ow velocity distribution,
resulting in inaccurate measurement.
Using a gasket with too large a diameter can cause leakage. Also, any solid
substance in the uid to be measured could accumulate between the gasket and the
ange, resulting in inaccurate measurement.

If you install the detector at a lower torque level using rubber gaskets, you must use
gaskets with the bore and outer diameters for the respective pipe bore shown in the
following table. Depending on the grounding ring material, two gaskets of dierent
thicknesses may be required. The following two tables provide the inner and outer
diameters for the two dierent gasket thicknesses.
