THE PIPE DATA MENU

This menu becomes available after picking a Meter Type, Measurement Channel and Mea-
surement Technology. We recommend that you edit the Pipe Data immediately after creating
a new Site Setup. The Pipe Data menu allows you to define the application's pipe parameters.
Select a pipe from one of the meter's stored pipe tables (see menu structure below); or input
the pipe size and description manually. Manual entries include Pipe Material, Outer Diam-
eter (OD) and pipe Wall Thickness. Liner Material and Liner Thickness entries are included
to support pipes with liners. The meter requires the pipe outer diameter (OD) and wall thick-
ness to operate. You must define these parameters to complete the installation.
The pipe table includes descriptions for over sixty standard pipes plus any user-entered pipes
(see Meter Facilities). To use these presets, first pick a Pipe Class (e.g., ASA Stainless Steel),
then pick a pipe size within that class (e.g., 4SS10). When you select a particular pipe class/
size, the relevant pipe parameters appear in the Pipe Data menu cells. If a given pipe class/
size does not match your application exactly you can still edit each individual parameter to
fine-tune your selection. In addition, the Meter Facilities section of the Installation Menu
provides a pipe table editor that allows you to customize any or all of the stored pipe tables.
NOTE: If you edit the pipe parameters after the system is operating, you will have to
repeat the transducer install procedure.
