The best suitable sensor is automatically selected from the available sensor types in the
converter and the appropiate number of traverses is indicated. If none of the sensors is suitable,
the converter will show "Transducer set : None".
Calibration number Compare the calibration number with the number on the
transducer cable. If needed, select a different transducer
set to change the calibration number.
Number of traverses 1 traverse = Z mode
2 traverses = V mode
4 traverses = W mode
See figure below for an explanation of the number of
traverses.
Figure 3-10: Number of traverses
1 1 traverse (Z mode)
2 2 traverses (V mode)
3 4 traverses (W mode)
Pipe Available sensor Traverse mode
DN15...150 Small 2 MHz, 1 rail
DN50...250 Medium 1 MHz, 1 rail
DN200...750 Medium 1 MHz, 2 rails
DN400...1500 Medium 1 MHz, 2 rails
CAUTION!
Normally, install the sensors as advised. If the quality of the pipe walls is poor and / or in case of
scaling inside the pipes, try to decrease the amount of traverses or (if possible) use a medium
sensor instead of a small sensor.
