and negative pole(red and black line)
3,after transducers are connected with circuits,must apply enough sealant to prevent water in.
4,after covering the transducers,must screw and lock tightly the hole for shield line of
transducers to prevent water in.
5,use strap(stainless steel band) to fix on the center part of transducers,to make it weighted
uniform,no moving.
6,apply enough couplant around the area
，
so that transducers touch pipe to prevent
air,sands,rust in,that influence the beam transfering.
§4.6 Insertion type transducer installation method
The new TDS-100M series insertion type transducer incorporates the advantages of clamp on
type and in line type transducers,its features:
Transducers can be installed directly on pipes of carbon steel or stainless steel by welding;
while for those pipes of materials like cast iron, glass fiber reinforced plastic, PVC and cement
which cannot be welded directly, special straps should be used for installation. For
those users who are in similar situation, please inform us of the precise outside diameter
of the pipe to be installed to prevent leakage.

§4.6.1 Installation tools
Special hole-drilling positioning tools made by our company (Hipeak Instrument Development Co.,
Ltd), 400w handle rotary drill (high speed adjustable is preferable), spanner and
screwdriver are needed for installing insertion transducers.
§4.6.2 Installation space
Insertion style transducers spacing is calculated based on the distance between the centers of the
two transducers along the pipe axis. The space will be shown on menu M25 when necessary data
are put into the menu, and the transducers should be installed according to this space.
§4.6.3 Installation method
There is only one way to install insertion style transducers which is called Z-method installation
and can be applied for all pipes which diameter is more than DN80mm.
§4.6.4 Locate the installation point
Input the pipe parameters on the mainframe, the installation space L (L=inside diameter
－
9.113mm) will be calculated. (the two sensors must be located in the same axis plane), the
installing space L should be the distance between the centers of the two sensors horizonally.
