2.7 SET UP (Quick Start)
To begin, select the system of measurement (US or Metric) in MENU Item 30.
The user must supply any two of the following four items of pipe information. The meter will calculate the
rest.
(There are tables in the appendices at the end of this manual for reference)
•
Pipe circumference
(M10)
•
Pipe OD
(M11)
•
Pipe wall thickness
(M12)
•
Pipe ID
(M13)
Enter the following pipe data and process data in the appropriate Menu locations:
•
Pipe Material
(M14)
•
Lined Pipe
(M16)
•
Process Liquid
(M20)
•
Transducer type
(M23)
* For Alia select either
#11
(Standard-TS) or
#12
(Standard-TM)
•
Transducer Mounting Configuration (M24)
The selections on M23 & M24 are is pipe size dependent. The diagrams on pages 9, 17 & 18 will guide the
user.
Handheld Menu Item 25 describes the transducer spacing that the Handheld has calculated as
required for your application. It is always a good idea to scroll back through the menu items to
confirm that the correct data was entered as the spacing / distance between the transducers is
based on this information and is critical. See Section 2.8 for correct transducer installation
Now proceed to configure the units of measurement (flow rate) and the totalizer units. This is done as
follows:
•
Flow Rate / Time Units
(M31)
•
Totalizer Units
(M32)
•
Totalizer Multiplier
(M33)
•
Turn OFF or ON Totalizers
(M34,35,36)
Positive, Negative, Net Totalizers
•
Totalizer reset (see Item M37 page 22)
Now, if the transducers are installed correctly and the above is done
,
the meter is ready to measure.
Press M01. At the bottom of the window the S value and the Q value should be in the 700,000 to 800,000
and >60% respectively. This may take a few seconds as the meter adjusts its gain for the new installation.
Finally, determine if any signal is being generated at zero flow. This will show up as flow rate or flow
velocity when there is NO FLOW. This can occur in environmentally noisy locations with pipe vibration. If
there is a flow reading when there is no flow then the meter must be zeroed. Go to M42, Press ENTER
then follow the on-screen instructions. (There is a counter to monitor progress) ENSURE THERE IS NO
FLOW.
You should now be making an accurate measurement. If this is a common measurement it might be
advantageous to SAVE it to a memory location (M26) for future use. Cont’ next page…
Cont’… The following will facilitate the operation of this instrument:
(1) When the window display is between M00 and M09 it is only necessary to press a single digit
number key to access other windows between M00 & M09.
(2) When the window display is between M00 and M09 it is only necessary to press a single digit
number key to access other windows between M00 & M09.
(3) When the window display is between M00 and M09, repeated pressing the ENT key will cycle
between M00 and M90.
(4)
When the window display is M25, press ENT key to go to M01.
