Orienting the Sensor 
Step 2
Orienting the Sensor
The sensor will function properly in any orientation if the sensor tubes remain filled with process fluid. 
Micro Motion recommends orienting ELITE sensors as shown in Table 3.
Flow direction arrow
The sensor has a flow direction arrow (see Figures 1–4) to help you configure the transmitter for flow 
direction. If possible, install the sensor so that the flow direction arrow matches actual process flow.
Vertical pipeline
If the sensor is installed in a vertical pipeline, liquids and slurries should flow upward through the sensor. 
Gases may flow upward or downward.
