Section 3
INSTALLATION - DIRECT MOUNT WITH EZ CLAMP AND SPACER BAR
1. Perform all required menu steps until the flow computer issues the number index and prompts you to
press [ENT] to finish the transducer install routine. Stop at this point. Note the number index value
displayed in the Pick/Install menu. You will use this number to properly space the transducers. Check
to ensure that you have a matched set of transducers. They both should have the same S/N number
but marked with either an "A" or "B" (e.g., 100A and 100B).
2. Temporarily position one transducer (in the 9 o'clock position) at the location where you have deter-
mined it would be mounted. Ensure that this is a smooth area without any raised spots (seams, etc.).
Mark a generous area around the transducer where it contacts the pipe (with a pencil or chalk).
Remove the transducer.
3. Prepare the area you marked by de-greasing the surface if needed and removing any grit, corrosion,
rust, loose paint or surface irregularities with the abrasive pipe conditioning material provided.
4. Attach the EZ clamp to the transducer under the spring clip. The adjusting nut knob should be pointing
up and on the side opposite of the spacer bar. Unscrew the knob until it's at the stop.
