Propagation velocity

To make a flow measurement using the UFM 610 P on any liquid, it is necessary to know the propagation velocity in
metres/second. There is a short list of fluids that appear on the display when programming (See page 16), showing water and
various other liquids. However if the liquid you wish to measure is not on this list, by selecting measure, the instrument
measures the propagation rate itself but only for pipe internal diameter greater 40 mm, by selecting Other it is possible to enter
the propagation rate in m/sec, if known.

6.6

Maximum flow

The maximum flow is dependent on the velocity and pipe size.

6.7

Application temperature

On any application whose operating temperature is either above or below ambient temperature ensure that the transducers reach
and are maintained at the application temperature before undertaking a measurement. Transducer sets “A”, “B” and “C” have a
temperature sensor inside the block that needs to reach the application temperature before making a measurement. If the block is
not up to application temperature it could effect the separation distance and therefore the accuracy. When applying the
transducers to low temperature applications do not allow the pipe surface to ice up between the transducer and the pipe wall.
The ice will force the block away from the pipe wall and consequently you will lose the signal.
