KATflow 200
3 Installation
●
Place the transducer on the side of the pipe or alternatively up to 45 de-
grees from the horizontal plane through the pipe.
This is advisable to establish the best acoustic contact since on top of the
pipe air pockets could develop and deposits could accumulate at the bot-
tom of the pipe.
●
Take the spring end of the chain in one hand and insert the last ball ele-
ment in the vertical slot of the retaining clip. Mount the chain around the
pipe.
●
Pull the chain firmly around the pipe and fasten it in the lateral slot of the
retaining clip. There should be no air pockets between the transducer sur-
face and the pipe wall.
●
Mount the second transducer the same way.
●
Using a measuring tape, adjust the sensor separation distance as sugges-
ted by the flowmeter. When the sensor positioning screen (Section 3.3) is
displayed, the middle bar allows fine adjustment of the sensor location.
