2. Run the process fluid through the sensor until the sensor temperature reaches the normal
process operating temperature.
3. Stop flow through the sensor by shutting the downstream valve, and then the upstream valve if
available.
4. Verify that the sensor is blocked in, that flow has stopped, and that the sensor is completely
full of process fluid.
5. Precautions should be taken to avoid sudden stops in flow that could cause severe pipeline
disruption.
