The transit-time flow meter utilizes two transducers that function as both
ultrasonic transmitters and receivers. the transducers are clamped on the
outside of a closed pipe at a specific distance from each other. the transducers
can be mounted in V-method where the sound transverses the pipe twice, or
W-method where the sound transverses the pipe four times, or in Z-method
where the transducers are mounted on opposite sides of the pipe and the sound
crosses the pipe once. this selection of the mounting method depends on pipe
and liquid characteristics. The flow meter operates by alternately transmitting
and receiving a frequency modulated burst of sound energy between the two
transducers and measuring the transit time that it takes for sound to travel
between the two transducers. the difference in the transit time measured is
directly and exactly related to the velocity of the liquid in the pipe, show as
follows:
Downstream Transducer
V= MD x 11T
sin20 r:ip • ¼own
Wherein
0 is the include angle to the flow direction
Mis the travel times of the ultrasonic beam
D is the pipe diameter
Tup is the time for the beam from upstream transducer to the
downstream one
Tdown is the time for the beam from downstream transducer to
the upstream one
iiT=Tup-Tdown

There exists a 'Zero Point' with certain installation which means the flow meter
will display a non-zero value when the flow is absolutely stopped. In this case,
setting a zero point with the function in window M42 will bring a more accurate
measurement result.
Make sure that there is no liquid running inside the pipe, and then run the
function in window M42 by pressing the®key.
Example A: flow rate range is 0-500m3/h. Just enter 0 in M56 and 500 in M57.
