SUMMIT 8800 STREAM CONFIGURATION 06
Ultrasonic meter type The specific meter to be used can be selected from a list. As meters are
generally designed for liquid, gas or stream, the list varies depending on
the medium. Also there is the option to use an analog input for flow.
Number of paths The number of measurement paths (1 to 8) of the selected meter (see
meter specifications for details). Used when the meter communicates
serially. An alarm will be given if the meter is not configured for the same
number of paths.
Meter units The engineering units in which the meter is measuring flow.
Maximum Counter
Increment
The maximum allowable increment for the flow data counter used for the
calculated volume. Used when the meter communicates serially. This
prevents a massive increment when, after a communication failure, the
meter resumes normal communication.
Flow offset This is used to simulate flow during testing when no meter is available. In
theorie it could also be used to correct a fixed mis-match of the flow.
Meter specific data For certain meters some parameters must be set. As these parameters
are meter specific, please consult the meter manufacturer’s operating
instructions for further guidance. Parameters for the following meters are
available:
- Flowsic 600 Use or ignore the security alarm, provided by Modbus or a digital output
- Senior Sonic Dimensions and material of the meter and calculation of dynamic Viscosity
- Instromet QSonic UFM efficiency settings used for reliability and diagnostic information.
- KROHNE UFM 3030 Select if the measured flow rate, velocity of sound and totals should be
used.
