6.4 Installing the Magnetic Clamping Fixture and Transducers - MCF
The Magnetic Clamping Fixture (MCF) is used to fasten transducers to the pipe at the proper spacing without chains or
straps. The MCF can be used only on ferrous pipe materials.
Different fixtures are used for the single- and double-traverse installations. Each type of MCF has magnets at both ends
of the fixtures. When the magnets are turned ON, the fixture magnetically "clamps" to the pipe wall.
6.5 Identifying the MCF Components
Refer to Figure 12 to identify the MCF components. Then proceed to the instructions for either the double-traverse
method or the single-traverse method.
