4.5.8 Installing DMP-1 Dampening Material
1.
Measure the approximate distance (D) between the two transducers, as shown below.
2.
Lay the first strip of dampening material on a flat surface. Using a utility knife, cut a strip with a width equal to the
distance (D) between the transducers, as shown in the figure above. Then, peel back a small part of the backing
paper, but do not completely remove the backing paper.
3. Use a dry towel or a rag to thoroughly dry the pipe.
IMPORTANT: The dampening material will only adhere to the pipe correctly if the pipe is completely dry.
4. Wrap the strip of dampening material around the pipe in the space between the transducers, peeling the
backing paper off as you proceed.
5.
Lay the second strip of dampening material on a flat surface. Using a utility knife, cut the strip into two equal
pieces with a width of 4.5 in. (12 cm). Then, peel back a small part of the backing paper on each piece, but
do not completely remove the backing paper.
6. Make sure the pipe is dry, then wrap each of these dampening material strips around the pipe at the outside
edge of each mounting block, peeling the backing paper off as you proceed. One strip will be upstream from the
flow measurement point, while the other strip will be downstream form the flow measurement point. The
completed installation should appear similar to the figure below (for clarity, the junction boxes are not shown).
