The principle of measurement is the radiant force method. The UPM-DT-xPA Series uses a positioning clamp to hold the transducer in degassed water above a conical target. The ultrasonic energy passes through the water to reflect off the target and is then absorbed by the rubber lining.

Page 8: Test Setup
TEST SETUP Water as a Measurement Medium Ultrasound propagation in water closely approximates ultrasound propagation in tissue. Large areas in the body can consist of low attenuating material such as urine and amniotic fluid. Other areas of the body, such as the liver, contain higher attenuating materials. Water is used as a lower limit of the attenuation encountered in the body. - Page 9 Conical Target Installation Tilt the test tank and begin filling with degassed water creating a minimal amount of turbulence. Fill the tank 1/4” from the top with fresh degassed water. Disengage the meter’s slide lock (if equipped; see Meter Layout section). Power on the UPM-DT-xPA and allow the meter to zero.

- Page 11 Transducer Placement To place the transducer, tighten the positioning clamp jaws onto the transducer handle; See Figure 3 for Positioning Clamp details. Loosen the two positioning clamp knuckles and insert the transducer head into the degassed water at an angle to minimize disruption of the degassed water.
