Installation
The pipe mounting surface must be clean, smooth and free of any surface imperfections.
Remove all insulation material, loose paint, coatings, etc. Clean the pipe surface
thoroughly. Use a grinder, sandpaper, or other tool if necessary to remove surface
imperfections. Do not mount the transducers over weld seams.
Place a mark on the pipe where the first transducer will be located. Be sure to locate the
transducers on the side of horizontal runs of pipe.
Doppler Mode:
When the meter is operated in the Doppler mode, marking the second transducer
location is not necessary. Simply install both transducer directly opposite from each
other.
If the fluid to be measured contains particles, the meter should be operated using the
Doppler measurement method. For Doppler operation, the transducers will be mounted
directly opposite each other as shown below.
