PREAMBLE : Thank you for choosing Ultraflux to make your flow measurement. We offer a full range of portable or fixed flowmeters backed by 30 years’ expertise and experience using Ultrasonic techniques: UF 801-P family, high features portable flow meters, with integral loggers, signal analysis functions and many options.
SUMMARY: 1 – Typical Applications: Installation with intrusive (Wetted) probes on two parallel chords. Installation with clamp on probes on crossed diametric planes. 2 – Composition of a measurement point. Certifications Applicable standards MiniSonic limitations 3 – Ergonomics and dimensions Wall mounted industrial Version.
1 - TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Compared to a single-chord version, the management of 2 chords placed correctly on the same pipe provides better monitoring for the hydraulic conditions specific to the site and are the key to better accuracy. There are two main possible acquisition configurations: ...
2 - COMPOSITION OF A MEASUREMENT POINT - The probes (x4) are arranged two per chord - Integral or optional supports (SU) - Coupling kits for external probes - Probe / converter link cables - The converter associated with its accessories (software, PC cable) - If required, accessory modules: power supply transformer, Zener barriers CERTIFICATIONS All equipment is CE certified.
3 - ERGONOMICS AND DIMENSIONS OF THE MINI 600 / 2000-2 CONVERTERS Wall-mounted industrial version (IP 65 or 67): The resources for cabling the 4 cables leading to the probes are provided by the installation of double glands on a “Y” type with IP 65 protection level. To preserve the MiniSonic index 67, an external extension box is necessary (optional supply).
4 – WIRING DIAGRAM FOR MINISONIC 600-2 & 2000-2 : (Low voltage supply) (See also NT 218 if the GP 01 / 90-230 V AC // 24 V DC if installed). The internal cables must be kept as short as possible. The cable connections must use the adjacent gland.

Attention! If this R loop is too high for the supply, the curent fall down to 4 mA Connection to probes: BR 4 (chord 1) & BR 3 (chord 2). - Use Twin-ax cables specified by Ultraflux (ET1217 & ET1217A). - In the industrial version, shield and conductors are separated in the “Y” compartment of the Y gland, while leaving a free length of 10 cm to terminal blocks.
6 – PROBES INSTALLATION – (General Procedures). Unless specified and instructed otherwise in the order, refer to the probe data sheet of the model used. A dual-chord spool must always be constructed according to our guide drawing. Once the structure has been made, verify the sizes “D ”...
7 - COMMISSIONING AND PARAMETERING OF MINISONIC 600-2 / 2000-2 1. Once the cabling has been carried out and verified, power up the system: The MiniSonic must display its delivered configuration screens: - Hardware version = MiniSonic 600-2 or 2000-2 and P.C. Board (MK4_M…) - Software version = 18.10-01 (e.g.

It will be required for any subsequent intervention. In case of loss, contact Ultraflux giving the following information: the serial number of your MiniSonic MK4*/xx/xx/xxxx as it appears during energizing and the date or dates on which you want action to take place. An operation will be requested allowing a provisional code to be calculated.

If the MiniSonic displays INIT constantly, attempt a power cutoff, then re-energize. If the fault persists, contact Ultraflux (Problem with the microprocessor). If the fault disappears, it may come back and could be due to excessively high impedance in the supply source.
