Flow monitoring

The

FLOW READING screen is the one most used during normal monitoring operation. It shows the instantaneous

fluid flow together with totalized values (when enabled). In this mode you can select the flow rate measurement
units by pressing keys 7 (liters), 8 (Gallons, Barrels) or 9 (m³), or change the display to show velocity by pressing
key 4.

Managing Named Sites

If you want to monitor a particular site location frequently, you can set up a named ‘Site’ to store the installation
details, such as pipe dimensions and material, required to set-up the PUF system. These can then be recalled
later when revisiting that particular location.

The instrument can store up to 20 sites, the first site is reserved for

QUICK START and cannot be renamed;

subsequent sites are initially named

EmptySite1 through to EmptySite19.

3.4.1 Setting up a new site

18. Check that the indicated signal strength on the

left of the screen is at least 2 bars (ideally 3 or 4).
If less than 2 bars are shown it indicates there
could be a problem with the transducer spacing,
alignment or connections; or it could be due to an
application problem.
