    Section 1 1010BXFM-3 SYSTEM HARDWARE DESCRIPTION System 1010BX is housed inside a cylindrical explosion-proof NEMA-7 aluminum, epoxy painted case. The main metering compartment front and rear sections are sealed with an O-Ring with separate threaded covers. The front section houses the main electronics and the optional Magnetic Touch-Panel User Interface with a 2x16 character LCD Alphanumeric Display view- able through a tempered glass window.

    Real-time operation commences after the completion of the site setup procedure. The real time operating software’s function is to collect the primary measurement data from the trans- ducer system and then make it available to be converted to output data by the Data I/O and Siemens Hardware Display subsystem.
  • Page 32: Description Of Channel Functions (1010Dbx Systems Only)

    Section 1 1010BXFM-3 Since System 1010BX is a multitasking, multifunction system, all necessary operations are interleaved to guarantee the fastest operation and greatest real-time data density. Installation Menu choices govern the functionality of the real-time operating system. For ex- ample, data will be reported either in data units selected by the installer during the site setup or default units, if the installer chose not to edit that menu choice.

  • Page 208 Installation Instructions CC129A-7 PREPARING THE PIPE SURFACE Pick a mounting location with the longest straight run. You must have easy access to at least one side of your pipe. For uninterrupted operation the mounting location must remain fully pressurized, even at zero flow. Decide on your mounting mode (direct or reflect).
  • Page 209 Table 1. Note that operating and installation temperatures are not the same. Determine the proper location of the transducers (refer to paragraph 1 above). Thoroughly clean and degrease the selected pipe area with a suitable solvent (see Siemens Hardware Cautions in para. 3.1.5). CN4973 February 2005...
  • Page 210 Installation Instructions CC129A-7 After determining the best sheet cutting pattern from suggestions above, mark the pipe for the starting edge of the dry couplant sheet position. Partially peel the sheet backing 1 to 2 inches from the starting edge, then carefully locate and press against the pipe surface.
  • Page 211 3.1.5 CAUTIONS ON THE USE OF CC129A DRY FILM COUPLANT Don’t clean the transducers or pipe surface with MEK, acetone, trichloroethane, trichlo- roethylene, toluene, freon (and its vapors), chloroform, and xylene. Don’t use on oily or greasy pipe surfaces. It will interfere with adhesion. Siemens Hardware CN4973 February 2005...
