CONDENSED OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
F. SELECTING SENSOR TYPE/ENTERING SENSOR DATA (calibration)
To configure/calibrate the analyzer so that measured values will accurately represent actual values,
you must select the sensor type and enter specific sensor-related data. This is a normal part of the
initial setup. The data you enter depends on the sensor being used:
•
GLI sensor mounted in tee:
Enter the TEE SIZE and TEE MATERIAL.
•
GLI sensor mounted in pipe (using weldolet, pipe saddle or ball valve assembly):
Enter
the inside diameter of the pipe (SET PIPE ID).
•
Non-GLI sensor (any mounting):
Enter a slope value (SET SLOPE) and an offset value (SET
OFFSET).
After entering appropriate sensor data, the analyzer is calibrated. Anytime thereafter, you can line-
arly offset measured flow readings by using the CALIBRATE menu.
Calibration adjustment should
only be considered when analyzer readings need to match a user-supplied “qualified refer-
ence” flow instrument.
See PART THREE, Sections 5.1 and 5.2 for complete adjustment details.
NOTE: The following configuration/calibration procedure is only for Sensor A and only for
GLI sensors.
Configure/calibrate other sensors in the same way using their respective menu
screens. (To enter specific data for non-GLI sensors, see PART THREE, Section 4.2, sub-
section “SET SENSOR Data” under the “Non-GLI Sensor Setup” category.)
