Energy Accuracy:

The accuracy of the energy

measurement is a combi-
nation of the accuracy of
the associated flow and
temperature measurements.

Transit-Time Mode:
1% of reading typical for

calibrated systems.

TransFlection Mode:
2% of reading typical for

calibrated systems.

Fluid Types:

Transit-Time Mode:
Acoustically conductive fluids,

including most clean liquids
and many with entrained
solids or gas bubbles. Maxi-
mum void fraction depends
on transducer, interrogation
carrier frequency, path length
and pipe configuration.

TransFlection Mode:
Multiphase fluids, including raw

sewage, sludge, slurries, tar
sands, oil-water-gas mixtures,
acoustically attenuating
liquids and other demanding
applications.

reading typical; 0.5 to 1% of read-
ing with calibration. See note.

Velocity

1 ft/s (

0.3 m/s), ± 0.03 ft/s

(± 0.01 m/s). See note.

Pipe diameter (ID)

6 in. (150 mm):

Velocity > 1 ft/s (> 0.3 m/s), 2 to 5%

of reading typical. See note.
