2.3.3 HOW TO SELECT A PIPE TEMPERATURE RANGE
This menu cell informs the computer about the expected temperatures that the transducers
will be subjected to during operation. The default setting, -40ºF to 250ºF corresponds with the
rated temperature range of our standard 991 or 1011 series transducers. The other selections
provide higher upper limits of 375ºF and 450ºF, respectively.
If you know that the pipe temperature will exceed 250ºF at the transducer mounting location,
please use this menu cell to select the appropriate range. This will allow the Interface Detec-
tor to restrict its transducer recommendations to the appropriate environmentally rated types.
To select a temperature range:
To access the option list press
To highlight the desired range press
To register your selection press

should create ranges of LiquIdents where the appropriate K0/K1 variables are installed for
their corresponding liquids.
2.3.4 PIPE CONFIGURATION
The [Pipe Configuration] menu cell in the Application Data menu presents a list of descrip-
tions of piping configurations that could affect the flow profile characteristics (such as “Single
Elbow”). Examine the option list. Selecting a piping configuration that closely approximates
conditions at or near your mounting location allows the flow computer to compensate for the
effect of upstream piping on flow profile. The number of diameters between the upstream
configurations and the transducer installation can be numerically entered via the [Anomaly
Diams] menu cell.
To select a Piping Configuration:
To access the option list press
To highlight the desired piping configuration press
To register selection press
The default pipe configuration (Fully Developed) will cause the flowmeter to use the conven-
tional Reynolds Compensation Table when compensating for liquid flow profile behavior.
