The Series TUF Tennant Ultrasonic BTU Flowmeter is a MID/EN1434 approved
highly accurate and stable energy meter. It utilizes ultrasonic technology to measure
heating and cooling energy consumption. The Series TUF incorporates a owmeter,
temperature meter, and a calculator into a single, compact unit. The size and lack of
moving parts means the Series TUF requires minimal maintenance. The 8-digit LED
display enables easy reading of the meter’s recorded values; including temperature,
ow-rate, energy consumption, etc. These features make it ideal for installation on
chillers, boilers, and individual apartment piping. With the optional couplings it is
capable of being used with either NPT or BSPT pipe sizes. It is the perfect meter for
tenant billing applications.
FEATURES
• Lower maintenance costs with local parameter display and no moving parts
• Serial communication output allows for easy transfer of data
• Flow and temperature monitor in one unit eliminates the need for multiple units

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Install the meter as shown in either Figure 1 or Figure 2.
2. Mount the temperature sensor with the blue tag on the corresponding return pipe on
application. The sensor with the red tag has already been installed in the meter.
3. Flush the system in the proper direction until:
• No impurities remain in the lter and pipe.
• No water leaks when pressure is added to the system.
• The humidity inside the enclosure containing the meter does not exceed 93%.
4. After ushing for a period of time; close the ball valves on either side of the meter
and ush the impurities out of all lters.
*3.6 V ER26500 battery may be purchased separately to power display only.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
NOTICE
measuring accuracy.
1. Ensure that there is a 10 diameter straight run of pipe upstream and a 5 diameter
straight run of pipe downstream form the meter.
2. See the installation positions in Figure 3, in which A and B are the proper installation
positions, while C and D are the improper positions.
3. If the meter is installed on the horizontal pipe, it must be oriented at least 45° from
horizontal (see Figure 4). If the meter’s face is horizontal, then debris accumulation
can increase inaccuracies (see gure 5 for correct and incorrect orientations). There
is no special requirement when installing on the vertical pipe work.
4. Handle display with care. LCD display may damage with force.
Note: the meter can be installed on the return pipe or the supply pipe according to
user’s needs, but it should be selected in advance.
If the following requirements are not followed, then large air
particles and impurities in the pipe could inuence the meter’s
INSTALLATION NOTES
NOTICE
CAUTION
optional battery could cause the battery to explode and cause injury to people and
damage the meter.
1. Avoid tugging on the temperature probe’s cables.
2. Ensure the water is owing in the direction indicated by the arrow on the meter’s
body.
3. If several meters are installed on the same vertical pipe work, each meter should be
separated from the others to avoid pipe leakage or fallen debris that could affect the
other meters’ operation.
Do not directly weld the meter on to the pipe; the extreme heat
will damage the BTU meter’s internal elements.
Do not install the meter near a high temperature heat source
such as during electro gas welding. Doing so after installing an

1. If meter is not in use during freezing conditions, drain all water from the connecting
pipe. Low temperatures will cause the water to freeze in the pipe and damage the
meter.
2. This device is intended to be used with clean water. While dirty water will not
damage the meter, it will cause errors in the reading.
3. A lter should be mounted near the meter and cleaned regularly.
4. If the heat exchanging system is operating normally, but the instantaneous ow-rate
of the heat meter reduces signicantly, then there is too much dirt in the lter. This
will narrow the pipe and reduce the ow. Cleaning the lter will x the problem.
5. To protect the meter and avoid damage from harsh conditions, it is recommended
that the meter be encased in an enclosure.

to monthly information ▲▲, and then to other information ▲▲▲. Once in the
desired section, pressing the key will switch the information shown for the given
section.

3. Display Details
a. “Monthly Reading Date” is displayed as “Pd= XX”, in which XX is the end date of
the current month’s energy summation. The factory default value is 31, meaning
that the monthly recording period ends at midnight on the 31st day of the month. At
this time the current month’s cumulated energy will be stored and the system will
begin to record the next month’s energy.
b. The meter can store and display the recordings from the past 18 months.
c. The units for “Sum of Working Time” (hours) is displayed as h.
d. “Software and Protocol Editions” are displayed as “UEr.X.X X.X”. The rst X.X is
the software edition code and the second X.X is the communication protocol edition
code.
e. “Leaving-factory serial number” is the meter’s identication number, which is the
same as the one in the external label. This serial number is a unique number set by
the factory; it is also the secondary address in M-BUS system.
f. Battery Voltage displays “UCC=X.XX” (the default unit is Volts). When the battery’s
voltage capacity is lower than 2.9±0.1 V, “ ” will appear on the display. This
symbol will not appear if no battery is installed.
g. If there are any unresolved errors, the start date will display as normal but the end
date will display “00-00-00”, and then the error message will be displayed.
