  • Page 4: Quick Start Procedure

    U1000MKII-HM User Manual 2 Quick Start Procedure The following procedure details the steps required to set up the heat meter. See the sections referred to if you are unsure about how to install the instrument. 1. Wire the electronics up to a 12 to 24V ac or dc power supply (7VA minimum per instrument) via the Blue and Brown wires.
  • Page 5: How Does It Work

    U1000MKII-HM User Manual 3 How Does It Work? The U1000MKII-HM is a clamp-on, ultrasonic flowmeter that uses a cross correlation transit time algorithm to provide accurate flow measurements. Figure 1 Principle of Transit-Time operation An ultrasonic beam of a given frequency is generated by applying a repetitive voltage pulse to the transducer crystals.

    Experience has shown that the most consistently accurate results are achieved when the transducer guide rails are mounted at 45°with respect to the top of the pipe. The U1000MKII-HM equipment expects a uniform flow profile, as a distorted flow will produce unpredictable measurement errors. Flow profile distortions can result from upstream disturbance such as bends, tees, valves, pumps and other similar obstructions.

    U1000MKII-HM User Manual 5.1 Preparation 1. Before attaching the transducers, first ensure that the proposed location satisfies the distance requirements shown in Figure 3 otherwise the resulting accuracy of the flow readings may be affected. The unit is preconfigured for the application as follows :-...
