1.0 Product Overview

The Sonic-Pro series S4 Ultrasonic Flow Meter can measure fluid flow in water and many other clean fluids with sound speeds that are similar to water. The meter measures fluid flow using the Transit Time method. The S4 ultrasonic sound transducers do not touch the process fluid and there are no moving parts. This method of flow measurement is safe, nonintrusive and requires little to no maintenance.

The fluid being measured must be relatively “clean” to enable the sound waves to complete their circuit. The maximum amount of particles should not exceed . The 5% (50,000 ppm) meter cannot measure through air. Air bubbles and excessive turbulence will disrupt the sound beam.

The angle of the sound beam, as it travels through a material, is effected by the speed that sound travels through that material. As the sound speed changes, the angle changes. Sound travels through 68 F clean water at a speed of 1,481 meters per sec. The S4 ultrasonic sound transducers are factory positioned for a fluid sound speed of 1,500 m/sec +/- 100. They cannot be adjusted in the field.

Water that contains concentrations of other chemicals, or other chemicals entirely, may be acceptable provided the chemical does not change the sound speed (SOS) more than approximately +/- 100 meters per second and provided the fluid allows the sound beam to pass through unimpeded. Note that the speed that sound travels through the fluid is effected by changes in the fluid’s density.

The S4 includes a 6-button user interface that can be used to configure the meter. The optimum sound speed setpoint can be adjusted by the user within the range of 1,500 m/sec +/- 100 m/sec.

TRANSIT TIME MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE

During operation in the Transit Time measurement method, a short ultrasonic signal burst passes first in one direction and then in the other between two transducers separated along the length of the pipe. When traveling in the same direction as fluid flow, the burst is carried along by the fluid and arrives earlier as a result. When traveling against fluid flow, the burst is held back by the fluid and arrives later. The SPU ( measures this Signal Processing Unit) difference in time-of-flight in the two directions. From this, the actual time-of-flights, the distance traveled in the fluid and the angle of the ultrasonic signal path, it calculates the fluid velocity.

Minimum Straight Pipe Length Requirements

The Sonic-Pro’s sound wave beam is only affected by fluid that actually passes through the beam and therefore, the meter will not measure with high accuracy if the fluid velocity is not consistent across the entire pipe diameter. Flow disturbances such as pumps, elbows, tees, and valves in the flow stream can cause swirl patterns and vortices that will affect the measurement accuracy or disrupt flow measurement capability. Install the transducers on a straight run of pipe as far as possible from any disturbances. The distance required for high accuracy will depend on the type of disturbance.

The sound transducers are located in the S4 pipe fitting. They are carefully positioned at the

factory for use with water at 68 degrees F which has a SOS (Speed Of Sound) of 1481 meters per second. (see page 28 for water SOS chart). The transducer placement cannot be adjusted in the field. As the fluid’s sound speed moves away from the target Fluid SOS, measurements become more difficult. If the speed that sound travels through the fluid is very different than that of water, the meter will not function. The acceptable SOS range is from 1,400 to 1,600 m/sec.

The meter will display the SOS of the fluid being measured in the upper right hand corner of the display.

Successful measurements are possible with fluids other than water provided the fluid’s SOS is within the acceptable range and there are not too many particles or other sound blocking or reflecting contaminants in the fluid which can inhibit the sound beam.

The target Fluid SOS value can be adjusted to maximize the meter’s ability to measure the fluid. The chart below provides the sound speeds of a number of chemicals of specific concentrations at specific temperatures. Diluted chemicals will have a different sound speed.

Data logs are stored in the meter’s internal memory in a space delimited .TXT file that can easily be copied to a removable USB flash drive located on the main circuit board. Each log file includes the date and time, the flow rate (FR) and the flow total (TL). A total of 191,800 logs can be stored.

2013/12/29 09:15:00 FR 0.0000 TL 0.00

The Log Interval determines the number of seconds from 1 - 999,999 that the meter will wait between logs.

If a value is entered into Rate Set Point 1, a new log will be generated every 60 seconds while the measured rate of flow is greater than the configured value.

If a value is entered into Rate Set Point 2, a new log will be generated every 60 seconds while the measured rate of flow is less than the configured value.

6.3.2.9 Sleep Timer

Sonic-Pro

To conserve power, the S4 can be configured to “sleep” from 3 to 268 seconds per cycle. At the end of each sleep cycle, the meter will “wake” for the number of seconds (from 2 to 10 seconds) as configured in the Flow Average feature, record data, and then return to sleep. During the “wake” period, the display will remain blank.

The Flow Totalizer will estimate the amount of total fluid flow that would have been measured while the meter was sleeping, using the following formula:

Total flow display value = T1 + (F1 + F2 / 2) x (N +1) Where: T1 = Last total before sleep F1 = Last flow rate (units per second) before sleep F2 = Flow rate average of the 1st second of wake-up (units per second) N = Seconds of sleep (Sleep Timer Value) note: the one second is added to the Sleep Time for accusation time at wake.

The sleep cycle can be interrupted by pressing the ENTER button.

Data logging cannot occur while sleeping. Logging will occur if the meter is “awake” and if it is time to log data.

6.6 Zero Flow Calibration

6.7 Global Configuration

The zero calibration data can be stored for one flow direction only. If the Pipe Fitting and SPU was shipped from the factory as a single model number, the zero flow Calibration

required to link the SPU and the Pipe Fitting was performed at the factory for the A --> B flow direction. No further calibration is necessary. If the flow direction is from A <--- B or if a new Ultrasonic Inline Pipe Fitting is used, re-calibration may be necessary to achieve high accuracy.

The meter can be re-calibrated in the field by selecting Calibration and pressing the right arrow u or ENTER button. The pipe must be full of fluid and there must be no movement of the fluid in the pipe during the calibration process.

Note that performing a Zero Flow Calibration does not affect the Flow Direction configuration settings shown on the Calibration Detail Label: Zero and Zero +/- variables: transducer/Flow Direction/Settings/A -> B/

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL BLUE-WHITE BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL LOSES OR DAMAGES THAT SHOULD ARISE FROM THE USE OF THE FLOWMETER AND IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COMPANIES LIABILITY EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID BY THE PURCHASER FOR THE PRODUCT.

This warranty does not cover damage to the flowmeter that results from misuse or alterations, nor damage that occurs as a result of improper installation.

Blue-White assumes no liability for the acceptability of the flowmeter in a specific application. THE USER MUST DETERMINE THE ACCEPTABILITY OF THE PRODUCT AND ITS FITNESS FOR USE IN THE SPECIFIC APPLICATION.
