6.7 The Double-Traverse Method - MCF

5.

Locate the magnetic blocks at least 4 in. (10 cm) away from the transducer blocks. This will ensure that there is
enough clearance to mount the transducers in the blocks. Move the adjustable magnetic blocks in the same manner
as the transducer blocks.

6.

Position the clamping fixture along the horizontal plane of the pipe. However, if the pipe is horizontal, do not place
the fixture on either the top or bottom of the pipe.

7.

Turn the switches on each magnet to the

ON

position.

8.

If provided, secure the optional safety chain. The safety chain prevents the fixture from falling off the pipe if the
magnets fail to hold.
