Operation and Performance

Fluid Types
Acoustically conductive gases with minimum density
requirements. See Table 3-1 on page 3-5, Table 3-2 on page 3-7
and Table 3-3 on page 3-9.
Pipe Sizes
0.75 to 12 in. (20 to 300 mm) with PT878GC-01 electronics
4 to 24 in. (100 to 610 mm) with PT878GC-02 electronics
Pipe Wall Thickness
See Table 3-1 on page 3-5, Table 3-2 on page 3-7 and Table 3-3
on page 3-9.
Pipe Materials
All unlined metals and plastics; no lined pipes.
Clamp-On Flow Accuracy (Velocity)
For pipes 6 in. (150 mm) and smaller: ±2% to 5% of reading
typical
For pipes over 6 in. (150 mm): ±1% to 2% of reading typical
Note: Accuracy depends on pipe size and whether measurement
is one-path or two-path. Accuracy to ±0.5% of reading
may be achievable with process calibration.
Repeatability
±0.2 to 0.5% of reading
Range (Bidirectional)
See Table 3-1 on page 3-5, Table 3-2 on page 3-7 and Table 3-3
on page 3-9.
Rangeability (Overall)
150:1
