Calculate transducer distance a with the Geometry Calculator
Alternatively to the manual calculation of the nozzle offset, the Geometry Calculator avail
-
able on the provided product CD can be used,
:
1
Open the Geometry Calculator.
2
On the tab "Calc transducer distance" first select in the field "Meter type" if it is a 1-path
or a 2-path installation.
3
Enter circumference U.
4
Enter the "Nominal nozzle angle" (e.g. 75°, 60°, 45°).
5
"Transducer Distance a" is calculated.

5) Draw guide lines (1) for the nozzle positions with the previously calculated nozzle offset a, mark crossing points (2) and draw marking
points (3) in distance 60 mm (x) from the crossing points.
