1.5 3814 liquid ultrasonic meter design
The Daniel 3814 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter is a four-path (eight transducers) in-line meter
designed 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
paths provide an optimum solution for measuring asymmetric flow. The Daniel 3814 Liquid
Ultrasonic Flow Meter utilizes four 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.

designed 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
paths provide an optimum solution for measuring asymmetric flow. The Daniel 3814 Liquid
Ultrasonic Flow Meter utilizes four cross-bore, parallel-plane measurement paths, offers a high
degree of repeatability, bi-directional measurement and superior flow capabilities for custody
transfer without the compromises associated with conventional technologies.
The Daniel 3814 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 optional LCD Display requires firmware v1.04 or later and Uboot version, January 31,
2013.
The Base Electronics Enclosure is intrinsically safe and houses the Acquisition Module, the
acquisition 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,

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 convection
or too fast may cause erosion problems and resonance, cracks or failure of probes or
thermowells (approximately 0.6 to 12 m/sec or 2 to 40 ft./sec).
• Space availability for meter lengths (to allow inlet piping customization)
• Concentric alignment pins or flange concentricity technique considerations

discard the bolts as they must be reinstalled once the lifting operation is complete to
prevent corrosion of the tapped holes.
3. Make sure the tapped holes on the meter are clean and free of debris before installing
the hoist rings.
4. Use only the safety engineered swivel hoist rings that are rated for lifting the meter. Do
not use any other type of hoist rings with the same screw size or heavy duty hoist rings.
The meter tapping and counter bore size are suitable only for the hoist rings specified
by Daniel.
5. When installing a hoist ring, make sure the base surface of the hoist ring fully contacts
the machined flat surface of the tapped hole. If the two surfaces do not come in contact
then the hoist ring will not hold its full rated load. Torque the hoist ring attachment
bolts to the limit indicated on the hoist rings.
6. After installation of the hoist rings, always check that the ring rotates and pivots freely
in all directions.
7. NEVER attempt to lift the meter using only one hoist ring.

8. Always use separate slings to 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.

3-9000-760 Rev E March 2015
9. 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 2-10). If the slings do come in contact
with the electronic enclosure then remove the two bolts holding the enclosure to its
base and temporarily remove the head from the meter during the lifting operation. You
will need to unplug the cable from J3 on the Acquisition Module. Two screws hold this
cable in place.
Once the lifting operation is complete, reattach and secure the electronics cable to J3
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
cause the electronics to fall and cause personal injury or equipment damage.
Figure 2-9 Incorrect sling attachment
10. 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
Use of appropriate safety engineered swivel hoist rings in meter end flanges 33

Section 2: Mechanical installation Daniel 3814 Liquid Ultrasonic Meter Installation Manual
March 2015 3-9000-760 Rev E
prior to be placed in any further service. If a proper inspection cannot be performed,
discard the hoist ring.
11. 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.
12. 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.
13. Remove the hoist rings from the meter after lifting is completed and store them in an
appropriate case or container per their manufacturer's recommendation.
14. Apply heavy lubricant or anti-seize to the threads of the plug bolts and reinstall the plug
bolts to keep the tapped holes free of debris and to prevent corrosion.

2.3.2 Appropriately rated lifting slings
The following instructions are intended to provide general guidelines for proper lifting slings of
the Daniel 3814 Ultrasonic meter by itself. These instructions are intended to be followed in
addition to your company's standards or the DOE-STD-1090-2004 Hoisting and Rigging
standard if such company standards do not exist.
Safety precautions using appropriate rated lifting slings
1. Meters must only be lifted by personnel properly trained in the safe practices of rigging
and lifting.
2. NEVER attempt to lift the meter by wrapping slings around the electronics enclosure.
3. NEVER attempt to lift the meter using only one sling around the meter. Always use two
slings wrapped around each end of the body as shown below. A choker style sling is
recommended.
Figure 2-10 Correct sling attachment
4. Visually inspect the slings prior to use for any signs of abrasion or other damage. Refer
to the sling manufacturer's procedures for proper inspection of the particular sling you
are using.
5. Only use slings with ratings that exceed the weight to be lifted. Reference your
company's standards for safety factors that must be included when calculating the load
rating.
36 Appropriately rated lifting slings
Page 51
Daniel 3814 Liquid Ultrasonic Meter Installation Manual Section 2: Mechanical installation
3-9000-760 Rev E March 2015
6. NEVER allow the slings to contact the electronics enclosure or the transducer cabling.
Damage to the meter may occur. If the slings do come in contact with the electronics
enclosure, then remove the two bolts holding the enclosure to its base and temporarily
remove the head from the meter during the lifting operation (remove the two bolts
holding the enclosure to its base and unplug the cable from the Acquisition Module.
Two screws hold this cable in place.) Use a spreader-bar on the sling to prevent contact
with the electronics.
Once the lifting operation is complete, reattach and secure the electronics cable to J3
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 with out the bolts installed, may cause the electronics to fall and
cause personal injury or electronics damage.
Figure 2-11 Incorrect sling attachment
7. NEVER apply shock loads to the meter. Always lift the meter gradually. If shock loading
ever occurs, the slings must be inspected per manufacturer's procedures prior to being
placed in any further service.

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 maximum 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 required for the frequency input to see a low state,
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)
single host. After configuration of the Daniel 3814 Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter, the DHCP
option must be turned off if used on a LAN/WAN.
Use ethernet cable (Daniel P/N 3-3400-079) to connect the PC to the meter.

A DIN 41612 48-pin connector is the interface from the CPU Module to the Field Connection
Board (male end located on the back of the Field Connection Board).
Serial connections
TM
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 Appendix A field wiring diagram, Daniel Drawing DMC-004936). The DB-9 end of the cable
TM
plugs directly into the PC running Daniel MeterLink
. The three wires on the other end of the
cable connect to the CPU Module. The RED wire goes to RX, the WHITE wire goes to TX, and the
BLACK wire goes to COM for the RS-485/RS-232 treenails (Table 3-4 for Port A wiring).
When Belden wire No. 9940 or equivalent is used, the maximum cable length for RS-232
communications at 9600 bps is 88.3 meters (250 ft.) and the maximum cable length for RS-485
communication at 57600 bps is 600 meters (1970 ft.).
Port A supports a special override mode which forces the port to use known communication
values (19200 baud, address 32, RS-232). Note that the protocol is auto-detected. This mode is
expected to be used during meter commissioning (to establish initial communication) and in
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.

3.6.2 Analog input settings
The 960-24™ MSTS has the capability to sample analog temperature (Analog Input 1) and
pressure (Analog Input 2) with 4-20 mA signals. These analog input signals are configured to
sink. The two independent analog input circuits are configured for conventional 4-20 mA
service. Also, 24VDC isolated power supply connection is provided for an external power source.
Refer to the Field wiring diagram DMC-004936 in Appendix A.
3.6.3 Analog output settings
The 960-24™ MSTS provides two 4-20 mA analog output signals that are software configurable
for either sink or source current (see Appendix A Daniel drawing
DMC-004936).
Full HART® functionality is provided so that any commercially available HART® transmitter
which meets the specifications of the HART® Communications Foundation can be connected to
the Daniel® Liquid Ultrasonic Flow Meter.
Analog Output 2 (AO2) is user-configurable as a conventional 4-20 mA output.
3.6.4 Digital Input
The 960-24™ MSTS provides one digital input that can be used as a general purpose input or
used for synchronizing calibration (for flow calibration gating - contact closure). The meter
records the volume seen between switch closures. The polarity of the input is configured as
normal or inverted polarity.
• polarity is determined by the IsDI1ForCalActiveLow and the gating edge is determined by
the IsDI1ForCalStateGated (calibrate edge gated or calibrate state gated)
• calibration is started via an inactive>active state change and stopped via an
Active>inactive state change.
The digital input must be configured via the Daniel MeterLink
screen.
3.6.5 DHCP server switch settings
The meter can be configured to act as a DHCP server. The DHCP server is enabled/disabled via

3.6.9 Sealing the unit
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.
