MOUNTING TRANSDUCERS ON A 1012 TRANSDUCER TEST BLOCK
z
Identify the side of the simulator that applies to the transducers under test. Rotate the clamping
bracket as required to mount transducers on the test surface.
z
Using a coupling compound (preferably CC-102), mount the transducers on the pipe simulator as
shown above. Slide each transducer until it presses against the pin-stop. Use the clamping screws to
hold the transducers in place.
z
Connect transducer cables between each transducer and the meter connectors for the channel
under test. The Up and Down orientation is not important.
z
Access the Installation Menu. Select [Meter Type] [Single, Dual, or Quad Channel] depending on
meter type. Select the meter channel (1,2,3, or 4) depending on which measurement channel you
intend to test. Select [Clamp-On] and then [Channel Setup].
z
Access the [Channel/Path Setup] menu. Move the highlight to [Create/Name Site]. Create a new Site
Setup (e.g., TEST1). You can now enter data without altering an existing Site Setup.
z
Select the [Pipe Data] Menu. Referencing either the English or metric pipe simulator
chart below, enter the pipe data corresponding to the transducer size under test.

6.9.1 USING THE 1012TB-1 AND 2 TEST BLOCKS
The 1012TB-1 and 1012TB-2 test blocks provide two test surfaces. Each surface supports a specific
transducer size. For example, one surface of the 1010TB-1 supports Size “A” transducers and the other
supports Size “B” transducers. The 1012 pipe simulators include two labels, one on each side-plate. The
labels identify the transducer size, data to be entered, and the surface to be used with the specific
transducer size. See drawing below.
