Appendix A. Specifications
A.1 Operation and Performance
Fluid Types:
Liquids: Acoustically conductive fluids, including most clean liquids, and many liquids with limited amounts of
entranced solids or gas bubbles.
Flow Measurement
Patented Correlation Transit-Time™ mode.
Meter Sizes
Standard: 3 to 16 in. (80 to 600 mm)
Optional: up to 36 in. (900 mm) available upon request.
Accuracy
±0.5% of reading
Range: 3 to 40 ft/s (0.91 to 12.19 m/s)
Calibration Fluid: Water (2 Points)
Final installation assumes a fully developed flow profile (typically 10 diameters upstream and 5 diameters downstream
of straight pipe run) and single phase fluids. Applications with piping arrangements that induce swirl (e.g., two
out-of-plane elbows) may require additional straight run or flow conditioning.
Repeatability
±0.2% of reading
Range: 3 to 40 ft/s (0.91 to 12.19 m/s)
Range (Bidirectional)
0.1 to 40 ft/s (0.03 to 12.19 m/s)
Rangeability (Overall)
400:1
SIL Certification (Pending)
IEC61508 certified pending
SIL2 certification with single set of electronics
SIL3 achievable with redundant design system
