Troubleshooting
Most problems with measurement are due to poor signal strength or quality.
Initial checks should include:
•
Has sufficient acoustic coupling paste been applied?
•
Can the number of sound passes be changed? As a general rule,
more passes will improve accuracy, fewer passes will give better
signal strength.
•
Are there any nearby sources of noise or disturbance?
•
Can the signal be improved by moving the sensors around the
circumference of the pipe?
•
Are the application parameters correct?
