PTFM 1.0 Portable Transit Time Flow Meter

FIELD TROUBLESHOOTING

Possible Causes:

Corrective Action:

METER READING WHEN THERE IS NO FLOW?

Erratic measurement (set damping to 0% to check) due
to electrical noise or poor signal quality.

function.



Try adjusting sensor spacing (+/- 10%) and
contact Greyline for further assistance.



setting.

Variable Speed Drive interference



Follow Drive manufacturers wiring and
Grounding instructions



Relocate Flowmeter, Sensors and wiring away
from VSD

Sensor cable connections incorrect or loose



Disconnect and reconnect sensor cables
ensuring that cable plugs are properly inserted
into terminals and tightened.

METER READING LOWER THAN EXPECTED?

Calibration Error



Review calibration menu. Pipe dimensions and
fluid selection/fluid velocity.

Lower flow rate than expected



Investigate pump/valves. Compare velocity
with alternate instrument.

Erratic measurement (set damping to 0% to check) due
to electrical noise or poor signal quality.



Try adjusting sensor spacing (+/- 10%) and
contact Greyline for further assistance.

NO ECHO INDICATION (Icon: No Echo)?

Sensor Connections



Check sensor connections at PTFM

Sensors not mounted to Pipe or mounted improperly



Apply coupling compound and mount sensors
to pipe with proper sensor spacing.

Empty pipe or partially filled



Pipe must be fluid filled and acoustically
transparent in order to obtain echoes.
