Installation With The Alignment Guide; Straps Preparation; Fastening Of The Transducers - Tecfluid CU Series Instruction Manual

5.2

Installation with the alignment guide

It is convenient to use the alignment guide (normally supplied for pipes from DN80 to
DN350), to guarantee that the transducers are perfectly aligned.
In case that the guide is not required or it is not supplied, the transducers can be installed
directly with the supplied straps (see page 24).
5.2.1

Straps preparation

Pass the free end of the strap through the two slots of one end of the guide.
Place the strap encircling the pipe, positioning the free end over the hooks and below the
screw. Snap the hooks on the tightest position possible. Tighten the connection with a
screwdriver until the guide is fixed rigidly, with no possible movement due to vibrations.
Proceed in the same way for the second strap.
5.3

Fastening of the transducers

In order to fix the transducers it is necessary to calculate de optimum separation distance
between them. This distance depends on some parameters of the pipe and the liquid that
flows through it. The calculation of the separation between the transducers needs to enter the
following parameters.
Switch on the electronic converter. It is not necessary that the transducers are installed.
Press the (OK) key in order to enter the main menu.
With the keys (2) and (8), select "Installation", and then validate with the key (OK).
