Installation overview 3.2 System configuration Generally after deciding on the necessary flow measurements an evaluation should be done. In this way, the best economical solution can be obtained since configurations and accuracy measurement requirements can be in conflict with the overall system costs. In particular when using Clamp-on systems it’s important to perform a very detailed evaluation.
Installing/mounting This chapter describes how to install the sensors. The following installation steps must be carried out: • Determine a suitable installation location for the sensors and transmitter. See Determining a location (Page 25). Note IMPORTANT This step should have been done prior to ordering the clamp-on system •...

Installing/mounting 4.4 Determining a location Determining a location Introduction There are a number of factors to consider when deciding on an installation location for the clamp-on sensors and transmitter. Primarily, the pipe section should remain completely full during normal operation and be in reasonable condition, without excessive corrosion (or scaling) which can interfere with ultrasound transmission into the fluid.
Page 26
Installing/mounting 4.4 Determining a location Selecting a location for the sensors 1. Locate the sensors downstream from the center of the longest available straight run. A location ten pipe diameters or greater downstream from the nearest bend will provide adequate flow profile conditions. 2.
"A" sensor to the downstream "B" sensor, whereas negative flow is in the reverse direction. Orienting the sensors Siemens recommends orienting the sensors in one of the following ways: Note IMPORTANT Avoid installing sensors on top or on the bottom of a horizantal pipe.
Installing/mounting 4.6 Installation instructions 1. Vertical orientation with an upwards flow in order to minimize the effect of gas / air bubbles in the media (sensors shown in Reflect Mount). Figure 4-2 Vertical installation with an upwards flow 2. Horizontal orientation with sensors shown in Reflect Mount and Direct mount. Note that flow can move in either direction.

Explosion hazard in case of an electric discharge. Ensure that no explosive atmosphere is present during mounting of the couplant sheet to the pipe. Siemens dry film couplant/damping material is an adhesive backed viscoelastic polymer sheet that provides excellent acoustic coupling without concern for couplant washout. For clamp-on gas applications this material effectively absorbs unwanted pipe noise to lower the minimum pressure required for flow measurement.
Installing/mounting 4.6 Installation instructions Preparing the pipe surface 1. Pick a mounting location with the longest straight run. You must have easy access to at least one side of your pipe. For uninterrupted operation the mounting location must remain fully pres-surized, even at zero flow.

KEEP FRAMES SEPARATED (until installation) in order to prevent the magnets from colliding with excessive force. This may cause the magnets to shatter. 2.
Additional Installation Instructions B.3 Magnetic mounting 8. Prepare the surface of the pipe. De-grease the surface, if necessary, and remove any grit, corrosion, rust, loose paint, etc. Use abrasive material provided to provide a clean contact surface for the sensors. 9.
