3.

  After inserting the tube, wait for about 5 minutes before proceeding with the setup to allow the tube 

enough time to regain its original structure. 

4.

  Ensure that the temperature of the medium you use for your application is the same as the one the 

BioProTT

TM

 Clamp-On SL was adjusted and calibrated for. 

5.

  Carry out a zero flow adjustment. For this,

 

allow sufficient time for the system to adapt to ambient conditions.

 

ensure that the sensor is clamped on at the correct position.

 

ensure that there are no air bubbles inside the tube.

 

the tube must be completely filled with liquid, but the liquid 

must not 

move.

 

the acoustic coupling rate must be checked. It should be ≥ 60 %. 

 

A zero flow adjustment must be carried out before each measurement 

to avoid possible offsets 

from the measured values.

During the flow measurement: 

• 

Ensure that the coupling is within the operating range (i.e. ≥ 60% ). If the coupling falls below 50%, depending 
on the respective evaluation device, there is either a warning issued or no flow value is displayed as the  

low coupling might impair the measurement. 

• 

It is important that any unwanted interruption of the process due to damage or kinking of the tubing is 
avoided at all times.

• 

Any changes in the medium itself or its temperature can cause errors or anomalies in the measurement. 

• 

It must be ensured that the correct calibration parameters are used.

• 

While it is possible to carry out measurements outside of the specified flow range, em-tec GmbH cannot 
guarantee that resulting flow values will be within the given accuracy range. 

The parameters of the connected BioProTT

TM

 Clamp-On SL and the selected calibration table are accessible 

via the display or the web interface of the respective BioProTT

TM

 evaluation device.

 

Please note: 

The stated measurement accuracy of the BioProTT

TM

 Clamp-On SL is only valid if the parameters of your 

process and application are the same ones the sensor was calibrated and adjusted for and if your setup 
respects the factors stated in the TechNote "

Optimizing Accuracy

".
