Appropriately rated lifting slings
The following instructions are intended to provide general guidelines for using proper lifting 
slings when lifting a Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter by itself. These instructions 
are intended to be followed in addition to your company's standards or the DOE-STD-1090-
2004 Hoisting and Rigging standard if such company standards do not exist.
Safety precautions using appropriate rated lifting slings
1.
Meters must only be lifted by personnel properly trained in the safe practices of rigging 
and lifting.
2.
NEVER attempt to lift the meter by wrapping slings around the electronics enclosure.
3.
NEVER attempt to lift the meter using only one sling around the meter. Always use two 
slings wrapped around each end of the body as shown below. A choker style sling is 
recommended.
