Appendix B. Using the Clamping Fixtures
B.3 Using the Magnetic Clamping Fixture - MCF
The Magnetic Clamping Fixture (MCF) is used to fasten transducers to the pipe at the proper spacing
without
chains or straps. Different fixtures are used for the odd traverse and even number of-traverse methods. Each
type of MCF has magnets located in the two blocks at the ends of the fixture. When the magnets are turned
ON
, the fixture is magnetically clamped to the pipe wall.
The transducer installation consists of mounting the MCF to the pipe and then mounting the transducers
into the fixture. To properly mount the MCF, you should first become familiar with the components of the
fixture (see Figure 110 below). Then, refer to the appropriate section for instructions on either the even
traverse or odd number of-traverse method.

B.3.1 Even Traverse Method
Note:
The instructions in this section can also be used for a multiple-traverse method. However, you must use
an
EVEN
number of traverses. The distance the signal travels from one side of the pipe wall to the
opposite side of the pipe wall is considered one traverse. For installations with more than two traverses,
contact BHGE for assistance.
The even-traverse MCF consists of a fixed magnetic block and an adjustable magnetic block, which are
connected by two rods (one of the rods acts as a scale to help you properly space the transducers). In
addition, a fixed transducer block and an adjustable transducer block are included. To install the MCF in a
even-traverse configuration, complete the following steps:
WARNING!
Do not use the MCF at temperatures that exceed 120°F (49°C) - the fixture will fall off
the pipe.
