Ensure that the transducer is properly
mounted to the pipe.
?
Verify that transducer connections are
correct
?
Ensure that the pipe is full of moving
liquid.
?
If SIGNAL STR is less than 100 counts
and flow rate is greater than 1 FPS [0.3
MPS], adjust GAIN control (R13 on the
Main PCB) till SIGNAL STR reaches at
least 130 counts.
?
On cleaner liquids, move the
transducers closer to a 90
o pipe elbow.
?
If GND connection and pipe are at
different potentials, ground D77 to pipe
potential.
?
If Variable Frequency Drives are being
utilized, verify that the D77 obtains a
