2.2.3 HOW TO ENTER THE PIPE OD (in. or mm)
Use this menu cell to edit the pipe outer diameter. Be aware that you will not be able to
complete the transducer installation successfully unless this information is accurate. In addi-
tion, if you change this parameter on a previously installed site, you will have to repeat the
transducer installation. Note: Use actual pipe dimensions, not ASA code or any other standard .
The English/Metric selection in the Meter Facilities menu determines whether these dimen-
sions are in inches or millimeters.
To enter the Pipe OD:
To enable numeric entry press
Use the numeric keys or Magnetic Wand to enter the exact outer diameter of the pipe
in inches or millimeters.
To register the Pipe OD press
2.2.4 HOW TO SELECT A PIPE MATERIAL
The pipe material selection affects flow calibration to a small degree. It also influences the
meter-generated transducer size and spacing recommendations. Select a substitute material
if you do not find the material of your pipe in the pipe table. You can edit each pipe paramet-
er to achieve a closer match. If you change any pipe parameters, after running the Trans-
ducer Install procedure, you may have to re-space the transducers. The [Pipe Material] option
list provides a selection of common pipe materials. The default pipe material is Steel. Press
the <Down Arrow> to accept the default setting for this menu cell.
To select a Pipe Material:
To access the [Pipe Material] option list press
To scroll to the required pipe material press
To register selection press
2.2.5 HOW TO ENTER THE WALL THICKNESS
The wall thickness of the pipe is one of the required parameters. The computer needs this data
to generate accurate transducer size and spacing data recommendations.
Selecting a pipe class/size inserts a wall thickness value. If this data is inaccurate, then use
this menu cell to set the pipe’s wall thickness (in English or Metric data units).
