3. TRANSFER INSTALL FUNCTION
All 1010 flowmeter operating systems (version 3.00.20 and greater) include the installation facil-
ity called "Transfer Install." This function permits the transducers to be repositioned while main-
taining all calibration parameters and operation established during the water calibration. The
Transfer Install function allows the transducers to be optimally positioned for a different fluid,
without the need for a new Initial Makeup procedure.
NOTE: Prior to performing Transfer Install make sure that the water calibration proce-
dure was performed and a saved active site exists.
3.1 Transfer Install Procedure
To initiate the Transfer Install function, proceed as follows:
3.1.1 In the Application Menu press the <Right Arrow> to select the [Liquid Class] menu cell.
Scroll and highlight [Estimated Vs m/s] from the option list.
3.1.2 Use the numeric keys to change the Estimated Vs to the Estimated Vs value of the
customer selected liquid.
3.1.3 To enter new Estimated Vs value press <ENT>.
3.1.4 Proceed to the Pick/Install Xdcr menu and select the same transducer, mounting mode
and spacing offset that was selected for the water calibration.
3.1.5 Re-space the transducers to the index position indicated by the flowmeter.
3.1.6 Scroll to the [Install Completed?] menu cell and select [Transfer Install] from the option
list.
NOTE: If [Transfer Install] does not appear in the option list then either the Estimated
Vs or the transducer size was improperly entered. In this case, recall the water
calibration site and start the procedure again at Step 3.1.1 above.
3.1.7 For MultiPath systems repeat Step 3.1.6 above for the remaining paths.
3.1.8 The flowmeter should now be operational at the new spacing location.
NOTE: Depending on the size of the pipeline, the change in the estimated sonic veloc-
ity (Vs) and the repositioning of transducers, the flowmeter may not operate out
of Fault even if the spool or pipe is filled with liquid. This can be expected when
performing a Transfer Install for liquified gases or for clamp-on natural gas flow-
meters.
3.2 Saving New Transfer Install Site
3.2.1 To save the Transfer Installed site, scroll to the Channel Setup menu and press the
<Right Arrow>. Press the <Right Arrow> again to select the [Save/Rename] menu cell.
3.2.2 Use the numeric keys to rename the Transfer Installed site with the same site name
used in Step 3.1.2 above, but with a "T" appended to the end of the site name (e.g.,
3CS40T).
3.2.3 Press <ENT> to store data.
