4. The next required parameter is either the outside diameter (OD) or
the circumference (OD x
press [ENT]. For either measurement, enter the desired value and
press [ENT].
Note: Obtain the required information by measuring either the pipe
outside diameter (OD) or circumference at the transducer
installation site. The data may also be obtained from standard
pipe size tables found in Sound Speeds and Pipe Size Data
(914-004).
5. The meter also requires the Wall Thickness (WT). Scroll to the WT
option, and press [ENT]. Use the arrow keys to enter the known
thickness, and press [ENT].
Note: To obtain an accurate pipe wall thickness measurement, use
an ultrasonic thickness gauge.
