Abstract Super luminous flavor factories, as SuperKEKB in Japan, aim to achieve very high luminosity thanks to a newly employed concept, the nano-beam scheme, where ultra-low emittance beams collide at very large crossing angle . Luminosity optimisation and dynamic imperfections require fast luminosity measurements. The aimed precision, 10⁻³ in 10 ms, can be achieved thanks to the very large cross-section of the radiative Bhabha process at zero-photon scattering angle. As a result of huge particle fluxes, diamond sensors are chosen to be placed just outside the beam-pipe, downstream of the interaction point, at locations with event rates consistent with the aimed precision and small enough contamination by backgrounds from single-beam particle losses . We will present the results concerning the investigation of the optimal positioning of our diamond sensors, taking into account the rate of Bhabha particles, their interactions with the beam pipe material.
