The Daniel 3812 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter is a two-path (four transducers) in-line meter
de
signed to measure the difference in signal transit time with and against the flow across one or
more measurement path(s). A signal transmitted in the flow direction travels faster than one
transmitted against the flow direction. Each measurement path is defined by a transducer pair
in which each transducer alternately acts as transmitter and receiver. The meter uses transit
time measurements and transducer location information to calculate the mean velocity.
Computer simulations of various velocity profiles demonstrate that multiple measurement
ths provide an optimum solution for measuring asymmetric flow. The Daniel 3812 Liquid
pa
Ultrasonic Flow Meter utilizes two cross-bore, parallel-plane measurement paths, offers a high
degree of repeatability, bi-directional measurement and superior low-flow capabilities without
the compromises associated with conventional technologies.
The Daniel 3812 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter’s U.L
. safety listing is accomplished through the
combination of an explosion-proof Transmitter Electronics Enclosure that houses the CPU
Module, Power Supply board, I.S. Barrier board, Backplane board and optional LCD Display
board.
NOTE: The op
tional LCD Display requires firmware v1.04 and Uboot version, January 31, 2013.
The Base Electronics Enclosure is intrinsically safe and houses the Acquisition Module, the
uisition cable and wiring. The Intrinsically safe transducers and cable assemblies are
acq
designed for Class 1, Division 1, Groups C and D areas without need of further protection when
installed in accordance with the field wiring diagram (refer to Daniel drawing DMC - 004936, see
Appendix A and Section 1.8).

Daniel Ultrasonic meters come equipped with a tapped hole located on the top of each meter
body end flange. A flat machined surface surrounds each tapped hole (see Figure 2-7). This
feature provides complete surface contact ONLY between the meter flange and an OSHA
ompliant Safety Engineered Swivel Hoist Ring as shown in Figure 2-8.

8. Always use separate slings for each hoist ring. NEVER reeve one sling through both
hoist rings. The slings must be of equal length. Each sling must have a load rating that
equals or exceeds the hoist ring load rating. The angle between the two slings going to
the hoist rings must never exceed 90 degrees or the load rating of the hoist rings will be
exceeded.

9. Direct mount option: NEVER allow the slings to contact the electronics enclosure.
Damage to the enclosure may occur. Use a spreader bar with the slings to prevent
contact with the electronics enclosure and the base enclosure (
see Figure 2-11). If the
slings do come in contact with the electronic enclosure then remove the four bolts
holding the e
nclosure to its base and temporarily remove the head from the meter
during the lifting operation. You will need to unplug the cable on the Acquisition
Module. Two screws hold this cable in place. Once the lifting operation is complete,
reattach and secure the electronics cable on the Acquisition Module, return the
electronics enclosure to its original position, replace the bolts, and secure the enclosure
in place.
Lifting the meter with the upper enclosure installed but without the bolts installed, may
ause the electronics to fall and cause personal injury or equipment damage.

Failure to do so may r cause damage to the equipment.
REMOVE CONDUIT TIE WRAPS FROM THE JUNCTION BOX
Conduit tie wraps must be removed prior to powering the meter.
Tie wraps placed on the junction box conduit for protection during shipping must be
removed before the meter is powered.
3-9000-765 Rev D March 2013
10. Remote mount option: Always use separate slings for each hoist ring. NEVER reeve one
sling through both hoist rings. The slings must be of equal length. Each sling must have
a load rating that equals or exceeds the hoist ring load rating. The angle between the
two slings going to the hoist rings must never exceed 90 degrees or the load rating of
the hoist rings will be exceeded.

11. NEVER apply shock loads to the meter. Always lift the meter gradually. If shock loading
ever occurs, the hoist ring must be inspected per manufacturer's recommendations
prior to be placed in any further service. If a proper inspection cannot be performed,
discard the hoist ring.
12. NEVER lift with any device, such as hooks, chains, or cables that could create side pulls
that could damage the ring of the hoist ring.
13. NEVER lift more than the ultrasonic meter assembly including electronics and
transdu
cers with the hoist rings. The only exception is that it is safe to lift the meter
with one ASME B16.5 or ASME B16.47 blind flange bolted to each end flange of the
meter. NEVER use the hoist rings on the meter to lift other components such as meter
tubes, piping or fittings attached to the meter. Doing so will exceed the load rating of
the hoist rings.
14. Remove the hoist rings from the meter after lifting is completed and store them in an
ppropriate case or container per their manufacturer's recommendation.

3.1 Cable length TTL mode
The maximum cable length is 2000 feet when the “TTL” mode is selected.
3.2 Cable length Open Collector mode
For the “open collector” mode, the maximum cable length depends on the cable parameters,
pull-up resistance used, the maximum frequency to output, and frequency input parameters
being driven. The following table provides estimated cable lengths for different pull-up resistor
values and different Max Frequency settings in the meter using the following cable parameters.
The table also provides an estimated cable voltage drop which indicates how much voltage will
be across the cabling and effectively indicates to what voltage level the frequency input can be
pulled down to by the frequency output.
If the voltage drop is higher than the voltage requ
then the configuration will most likely not work for your system. Performance of frequency
outputs will vary from this table with setup and frequency input being driven.

communicate with a Daniel 3812 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter.
March 2013 3-9000-765 Rev D
3.5 Wiring and I/O
Daniel MeterLink uses the TCP/IP protocol to communicate with the 960-24™ MSTS electronics
instead of Modbus ASCII or RTU. The TCP/IP protocol only works across either Ethernet, RS-485
full duplex (i.e., 4-wire), or RS-232. Daniel MeterLink can communicate with multiple meters if
they are multi-dropped using 4-wire full duplex RS-485 mode. The meter electronics are HART
capable and provide communication flexibility with Daniel 3812 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meters.
The HART® output provides communication with other field devices (e.g., 475/375 Field
municator and AMS™ Device Manager software) and ultimately, communicates key

Ethernet communications
The Ethernet port IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address are software-configurable. In
addition, a meter can be configured to act as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
server to assign an IP address to a PC or laptop running Daniel MeterLink. The DHCP server
facility is not intended to act as a general purpose DHCP server for a wider network. To this end,
no user control is provided over the class or range of IP addresses the unit provides. A standard
twisted pair (Cat-5) cable should be used for Ethernet wiring.
It is strongly recommended that the meter be configured using an independent (off-network)
gle host. After configuration of the meter, the DHCP option must be turned off if used on a
sin
LAN/WAN.
Use ethernet cable (Daniel P/N 3-3400-079) to connect the PC to the meter.

When Beldon wire No. 9940 or equivalent is used, the maximum cable length for RS-232
ommunications at 9600 bps is 88.3 meters (250 ft.) and the maximum cabl
c
communication at 57600 bps is 600 meters (1970 ft.).
Port A supports a special override mode which forces the port to use known communication
alues (19200 baud, address 32, RS-232). Note that the protocol is auto-detected. This mode is
v
xpected to be used during meter commissioning (to establish initial communication) and in
e
the event that the user cannot communicate with the meter (possibly due to an inadvertent
communication configuration change). Alternately, when using Daniel MeterLink™ with an
Ethernet port, use Ethernet cable (Daniel P/N 3-3400-079) to connect the PC.

The unit should be properly sealed with a sealing compound after electrical connections have
been tested according to the customer's Best Practices schedule. Some areas require a
witnessed Acceptance Test for the installed system and require that the meter run for a
predetermined length of time (approximately one to two weeks) before the unit is sealed. This
allows time to verify all electrical connections are correct, that the meter is accurately
measuring flow and that the meter meets the customer’s installation requirements. See Section
