The Daniel 3812 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter is a two-path (four transducers) in-line meter
designed to me
asure 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 op
pa
timum solution for measuring asymmetric flow. The Daniel 3812 Liquid
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.
. safet
The Daniel 3812 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter’s U.L
y 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 LC
D Display requires firmware v1.04 and Uboot version, January 31, 2013.
The Base Electronics Enclosure is intrinsically safe and houses the Acquisition Module, the
acquisitio
n cable and wiring. The Intrinsically safe transducers and cable assemblies are
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).

SUNSHIELD PROTECTION
Install a sunshield to prevent prolonged exposure to direct sunlight in extreme climates.
Failure to shield the meter may result in exceeding the process temperature range and damage
transmitter electronics.
For optimal flow measurement conditions, Daniel suggests the piping configurations below.
Regardless of the configuration selected, the user agrees to accept full responsibility for the
site piping design and installation.
3-9000-765 Rev H June 2017
Sunshields, provided by the customer, may be required to prevent exceeding the process fluid
temperature when the meter is mounted in a location with extremely hot climates.
Flow conditioning is recommended for best measurement results.
• Honed or un-honed meter tube(s)
• Flow direction (unidirectional or bidirectional)
• Correct
meter size selection - too low may cause poor flow stability (thermal

DANGER TO PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT
Lifting a Daniel Ultrasonic Meter with other equipment
The following lifting instructions are for installation and removal of the Daniel Ultrasonic
Meter ONLY. The instructions below do not address lifting the Daniel ultrasonic meter while it
is attached, bolted, or welded to meter tubes, piping, or other fittings.
Using these instructions to maneuver the Daniel Ultrasonic Meter while it is still attached,
bolted, or welded to a meter tube, piping, or other fitting may result in equipment damage,
serious injury, or death.
The operator must refer to their company's hoisting and rigging standards, or the "DOE-STD1090-2004 Hoisting and Rigging" standard if such company standards do not exist, for lifting
and maneuvering any assembled meter tube and associated piping.
CRUSHING HAZARD
During meter installation or removal, always place the unit on a stable platform or
surface that supports its assembled weight.
Failure to do so could allow the meter to roll, resulting in serious injury or equipment damage.
Prior to lifting the unit, refer to the Daniel 3812 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter nameplate or
outline dimensional (general arrangement) drawing for the assembled weight.

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
transducers
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 ca
a
se or container per their manufacturer's recommendation.
15. Apply heavy lubricant or anti-seize to the threads of the plug bolts and reinstall the plug
bolts to ke
ep the tapped holes free of debris and to prevent corrosion.

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.

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)

Serial connections
Use serial cable (Daniel P/N 3-2500-401) to connect to a PC running Daniel MeterLink. The cable
is designed for RS-232 communications which is the serial Port A default configuration (see

BLACK wire goes to COM for the RS-485/RS-232 (Table 3-4 for Port A wiring).
When Belden wire No. 9940 or equivalent is used, the maximum cable length for RS-232
communications a
t 9600 bps is 88.3 meters (250 ft.) and the maximum cable length f
communication at 57600 bps is 600 meters (1970 ft.).
Port A supports a special override mode which forces the port to use known communication

expect
aud, address 32, RS-232). Note that the protocol is auto-detected. This mode is
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

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
3.4.1 and Section 3.4.2.
