6.4 Clamp-On Liquid Tool
The [Liquid Sensor Selection and Sizing Tool] screen allows the user to specify units of
measure, pipe dimensional data, liquid type, along with nominal values for flow range, and
temperature range. These values are used by the sizing tool to calculate the recommended
sensor selection (type and size) along with the recommended sensor installation methods.
The tool also provides application calculations for flow velocity, Reynolds number, Std
Volume compensation factor, expected repeatability and will point out if an application
conflict exists.

To display the [Liquid Sensor Selection and Sizing Tool] screen:
1. In the [Utilities] drop down menu select [Clamp-On Liquid Tool].
2. Input your default units of measurement in the row at the top of the screen
3. Select your pipe material from the drop-down menu, then enter your pipe's Outside
