I'm working on installing a orifice type flow meter on a horizontal steam line. The DP transmitter will remote mount to the plate.
I have Rosemount manual that gives mounting options for this application. The way they suggest installing it is to mount the plate with the adapter plate positioned below the pipe. The tube connections to the transmitter will then goto the adapter and include a 90 elbow in its path. Hopefully Im not confusing.
Question is: is there a reason that condensate has to fill up the transmitter legs? Can the plate instead be mounted vertically and then tie into the transmitter such that its vertically above?
Process engineer I'm working with has concerns that steam condensate might freeze up the lines or at least fill it up with impurities if mounted the first way.
