The measuring device described in these Operating Instructions is to be used only for measuring the
flow rate of liquids in closed pipes.
Examples:
• Acids, alkalis, paints, oils
• Liquid gas
• Ultrapure water with low conductivity, water, wastewater
As well as measuring the volume flow, the sound velocity of the fluid is also always measured.
Different fluids can be distinguished or the fluid quality can be monitored.
Resulting from incorrect use or from use other than that designated the operational safety of the
measuring devices can be suspended. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damages being
produced from this.
1.2Installation, commissioning and operation

• Endress+Hauser is willing to assist in clarifying the chemical resistance properties of parts wetted
by special fluids, including fluids used for cleaning.
However, small changes in temperature, concentration or the degree of contamination in the
process can result in changes to the corrosion resistance properties. Therefore, Endress+Hauser
cannot guarantee or accept liability for the corrosion resistance properties of wetted materials in
a specific application.
The user is responsible for choosing suitable wetted materials in the process.
• If carrying out welding work on the piping, the welding unit may not be grounded by means of
the measuring device.
• The installer must ensure that the measuring system is correctly wired in accordance with the
wiring diagrams. The transmitter must be grounded, except in cases where special protective
measures have been taken (e.g. galvanically isolated power supply SELV or PELV).
• Invariably, local regulations governing the opening and repair of electrical devices apply.
1.3Operational safety
Note the following points:
• Measuring systems for use in hazardous environments are accompanied by separate "Ex
documentation", which is an integral part of these Operating Instructions. Strict compliance with
the installation instructions and ratings as stated in this supplementary documentation is
mandatory. The symbol on the front of this supplementary Ex documentation indicates the
approval and inspection authority (e.g. 0 Europe, 2 USA, 1 Canada).
• The measuring system complies with the general safety requirements in accordance with
EN 61010-1, the EMC requirements of IEC/EN 61326, and NAMUR Recommendation NE 21

3.2.3Orientation
Vertical orientation
We recommend the sensor be mounted where there is upward direction of flow. With this
orientation, entrained solids will sink down and gases will rise away from the sensor when the fluid
is stagnant.
Horizontal orientation
We recommend the sensors be mounted within an angle of ±60° to the horizontal (area shaded gray
in the graphic). With this orientation, flow measurement is less affected by any gas or air
accumulation in the upper area of the pipe or by buildup at the bottom of the pipe.

3.2.4Inlet and outlet run
If possible, install the sensor well clear of assemblies such as valves, T-pieces, elbows, etc. If several
flow obstructions are installed, the longest inlet or outlet run must be considered. Compliance with
the following inlet and outlet runs is required in order to ensure measuring accuracy.

3.2.5Sensor selection and arrangement
The sensors can be arranged in two ways:
• Mounting arrangement for measurement via one traverse: the sensors are located on opposite
sides of the pipe.
• Mounting arrangement for measurement via two traverses: the sensors are located on the same
side of the pipe.
A0001108
Fig. 7: Sensor mounting arrangement (top view)
AMounting arrangement for measurement via one traverse
BMounting arrangement for measurement via two traverses
The number of traverses required depends on the sensor type, the nominal diameter and the
thickness of the pipe wall. We recommend the following types of mounting:

installation allows the easiest and most comfortable type of mounting and means that a system can also be mounted
even if the pipe can only be accessed from one side. However, in certain applications a 1 traverse installation may be
preferred. These include:
• Certain plastic pipes with wall thickness > 4 mm (0.16")
• Pipes made of composite materials such as GRP
• Lined pipes
• Applications with fluids with high acoustic damping
2)
If the pipe nominal diameter is small (DN 65 / 2½" and smaller), the sensor spacing with Prosonic Flow W can be too
small for two traverse installation. In this case, the 1 traverse type of installation must be used.
3)
0.5 MHz sensors are also recommended for applications with composite material pipes such as GRP and may be
recommended for certain lined pipes, pipes with wall thickness > 10 mm (0.4"), or applications with media with high
acoustic damping. In addition, for these applications we principally recommend mounting the W sensors in
a 1 traverse configuration.

Insertion W sensors are mounted in a 1 traverse configuration ä 45.

3.3Two-channel operation
The transmitter is able to operate two independent measuring channels (measuring channel 1 and
measuring channel 2). A pair of sensors is connected per measuring channel. Both measuring
channels operate independently of one another and are supported by the transmitter to an equal
extent.
Two-channel operation can be used for the following measurements:
• Two-channel measurement = flow measurement at two separate measuring points
• Two-path measurement = redundant flow measurement at one measuring point
3.3.1Two-channel measurement
The flow is measured at two separate measuring points in the case of two-channel measurement.
The measured values of the two measuring channels can be processed and displayed differently.
The following measured values can be output for two-channel measurement:
• Individual measured values per measuring channel (output independently of one another)
• The difference between the two measured values
• The sum of the two measured values
The two measuring channels can be configured individually. This makes it possible to independently
configure and select the display, outputs, sensor type and type of installation.

BA
3.3.2Two-path measurement
The flow is measured redundantly at one measuring point in the case of two-path measurement.
The measured values of the two measuring channels can be processed and displayed differently. The
following measured values can be output for two-path measurement:
• Individual measured values per measuring channel (output independently of one another)
• The average of the two measured values.
The "Averaging" function generally provides you with a more stable measured value. The function
is thus suitable for measurements under conditions that are not ideal (e.g. short inlet runs).
The two measuring channels can be configured individually. This makes it possible to independently
configure and select the display, outputs, sensor type and type of installation.
It is generally not necessary to individually configure the two measuring channels in the case of twopath measurement. However, in certain situations individual channel configuration can be used to
balance out application-specific asymmetries.

3.4Preparatory steps prior to installation
Depending on the conditions specific to the measuring point (e.g. clamp-on, number of traverses,
fluid, etc.), a number of preparatory steps have to be taken before actually installing the sensors:
1.Determination of the values for the necessary installation distances based on the conditions
specific to the measuring point. A number of methods are available for determining the values:
– Local operation of the device
– FieldCare (operating program), connect a notebook to the transmitter
– Applicator (software), online on the Endress+Hauser Internet site
2.Mechanical preparation of the clamp-on retainers for the sensors:
– Premount the strapping bands (DN 50 to 200 / 2 to 8") or (DN 250 to 4000 / 10 to 160")
– Fix the welded bolts
3.5Determining the necessary installation distances
The installation distances that have to be maintained depend on:
• The type of sensor: P or W (DN 50 to 4000 / 2 to 160"), P or W (DN 15 to 65 / ½ to 2½")
• Type of mounting:
– Clamp-on with strapping band or welded bolt
– Insertion version, installation in the pipe
• Number of traverses or single-path/dual-path version
3.5.1Installation distances for Prosonic Flow P or W clamp-on
• Make sure that the permitted operating temperature range (-20 to +60 °C / –4 to +140 °F) is not
exceeded at the mounting location. Install the device in a shady location. Avoid direct sunlight.
• Always install the wall-mount housing in such a way that the cable entries are pointing down.

2.Guide the sensor connecting cables through the cable gland cover (F).
3.Threat the sensor connecting cables into the transmitter housing.
Align the outer end of the rubber grommet with the end of the cable gland/grounding
mechanism. This ensures that the cable entry will be a) tight and b) the cable is correctly
grounded to the transmitter housing at the internal contact point (D) once tightended.
An external inspection is not possible, so it is important to follow this instruction.
4.Tighten the cable gland by turning the cable gland cover clockwise.
Note!
The red marked cable is sensor "up"; the blue marked cable is sensor "down".
Note!
The cable gland can be released from the cable by unscrewing and removing tha cable gland cover.
Then retract the grounding mechanism (G) with pair of pliers. The retraction of the mechanism does
not require strong force (strong force might destroy the screen). It might be required to lift the
internal hooks of the grounding mechanism out of a locked position by pressing the grounding
mechanism further forward by turning the cable gland clockwise. Remove the cable gland cover
again. Then retry to retract with the pair of pliers.

OperationProline Prosonic Flow 93
5.3.1General notes
The Quick Setup menu ( ä 85) contains the default settings that are adequate for commissioning.
Complex measuring operations on the other hand necessitate additional functions that you can
configure as necessary and customize to suit your process parameters. The function matrix,
therefore, comprises a multiplicity of additional functions which, for the sake of clarity, are arranged
on a number of menu levels (blocks, groups, and function groups).
Comply with the following instructions when configuring functions:
• You select functions as described on ä 69. Each cell in the function matrix is identified by a
numerical or letter code on the display.
• You can switch off certain functions (OFF). If you do so, related functions in other function groups
will no longer be displayed.
• Certain functions prompt you to confirm your data entries.
Press OS to select "SURE [ YES ]" and press F to confirm. This saves your setting or starts a
function, as applicable.
• Return to the HOME position is automatic if no key is pressed for 5 minutes.
!
"
"
Note!
• The transmitter continues to measure while data entry is in progress, i.e. the current measured
values are output via the signal outputs in the normal way.
• If the power supply fails all preset and parameterized values remain safely stored in the EEPROM.
Caution!
All functions are described in detail, as is the function matrix itself, in the "Description of Device
Functions" manual which is a separate part of these Operating Instructions.
5.3.2Enabling the programming mode
The function matrix can be disabled. Disabling the function matrix rules out the possibility of
inadvertent changes to device functions, numerical values or factory settings. A numerical code
(factory setting = 80) has to be entered before settings can be changed.
If you use a code number of your choice, you exclude the possibility of unauthorized persons
accessing data ( "Description of Device Functions" manual).
Comply with the following instructions when entering codes:
• If programming is disabled and the OS operating elements are pressed in any function, a prompt
for the code automatically appears on the display.
• If "0" is entered as the private code, programming is always enabled.
• The Endress+Hauser service organization can be of assistance if you mislay your personal code.
Caution!
Changing certain parameters such as all sensor characteristics, for example, influences numerous
functions of the entire measuring system, particularly measuring accuracy.
There is no need to change these parameters under normal circumstances and consequently, they
are protected by a special code known only to the Endress+Hauser service organization. Please
contact Endress+Hauser if you have any questions.
5.3.3Disabling the programming mode
Programming mode is disabled if you do not press an operating element within 60 seconds following
automatic return to the HOME position.
You can also disable programming in the "ACCESS CODE" function by entering any number other
than the customer's code.

5.4Error messages
5.4.1Type of error
Errors that occur during commissioning or measuring are displayed immediately. If two or more
system or process errors occur, the error with the highest priority is the only one shown on the
display.
The measuring system distinguishes between two types of error:
• System error: this group includes all device errors, for example communication errors, hardware
errors, etc. ( ä 106).
• Process error: this group includes all application errors, e.g. measuring range exceeded
( ä 110).
!
A0001211
Fig. 77: Error messages on the display (example)
1Error type: P = process error, S = system error
2Error message type: $ = fault message, ! = notice message, (definition: ä 105).
3Error designation: e.g. S. V. RANGE CH1. = sound velocity of channel 1 is outside the measuring range
4Error number: e.g. #492
5Duration of most recent error occurrence (in hours, minutes and seconds)
5.4.2Error message types
Users have the option of weighting system and process errors differently, by defining them as either
Fault messages or Notice messages. This is specified by means of the function matrix (see
"Description of Device Functions" manual). Serious system errors, e.g. module defects, are always
identified and classed as "fault messages" by the measuring device.
Notice message (!)
• Displayed as Exclamation mark (!), error group (S: system error, P: process error).
• The error in question has no effect on the outputs of the measuring device.
Fault message ( $)
• Displayed as Lightning flash ($), error designation (S: system error, P: process error)
• The error in question has a direct effect on the outputs.
The response of the outputs (failsafe mode) can be defined by means of functions in the function
matrix ( ä 112).
Note!
• Error conditions can be output via the relay outputs.
• If an error message occurs, an upper or lower signal level for the breakdown information
according to NAMUR NE 43 can be output via the current output.
Endress+Hauser71
OperationProline Prosonic Flow 93
5.4.3Confirming error messages
For plant and process safety reasons, the measuring device can be configured in such a way that
fault messages displayed ($) not only have to be eliminated but also have to be confirmed by pressing
F. Only then will error messages disappear from the display!
This function is enabled or disabled via the ACKNOWL. FAULTS function ( "Description of
Device Functions" manual).
!
Note!
• Fault messages ($) can also be reset and confirmed via the status input.
• Notice messages (!) do not have to be confirmed. However, they remain on the display until the
cause for the error has been eliminated.
5.5Communication (HART)
In addition to via local operation, the measuring device can also be configured and measured values
obtained by means of the HART protocol. Digital communication takes place using the 4–20 mA
HART current output ( ä 63).
The HART protocol allows the transfer of measuring and device data between the HART master and
the field device for configuration and diagnostics purposes. HART masters, such as the handheld
terminal or PC-based operating programs (such as FieldCare), require device description (DD) files.
They are used to access all the information in a HART device. Such information is transferred solely
via "commands". There are three different command classes:
!
Universal commands:
All HART devices support and use universal commands. These are associated with the following
functionalities for example:
• Recognizing HART devices
• Reading off digital measured values (volume flow, totalizers, etc.)
Common practice commands:
Common practice commands offer functions which are supported and can be executed by many but
not all field devices.
Device-specific commands:
These commands allow access to device-specific functions which are not HART standard. Such
commands access individual field device information, (among other things), such as empty pipe/full
pipe calibration values, low flow cutoff settings, etc.
Note!
The measuring device has all three command classes. A list of all the "Universal Commands" and
"Common Practice Commands" supported is provided on ä 75 ff.

Proline Prosonic Flow 93Operation
5.5.1Operating options
For the complete operation of the measuring device, including device-specific commands, device
description (DD) files are available to the user for the following operating aids and programs:
!
Note!
• The HART protocol requires the "4 to 20 mA HART" or "4-20 mA (25 mA) HART" setting in the
CURRENT SPAN function (current output 1).
• A jumper on the I/O board provides the means of activating or deactivating HART write
protection.

Selecting device functions with a HART Communicator is a process involving a number of menu
levels and a special HART function matrix.

6.2.3Quick Setup "Pulsating Flow"
A flow that fluctuates severely, for a temporary period, occurs when using pump types that transport
media in a pulsating manner, such as reciprocating pumps, peristaltic pumps and eccentric pumps.
Negative flow on account of the closing volume or valve leakage can also occur with these pumps.
!
Note!
Execute the Quick Setup "Commissioning" before running the Quick Setup "Pulsating Flow"
ä 85.
A0001213
Fig. 80: Flow characteristic of different pump types
AWith high pulsating flow
BWith low pulsating flow
By specifically configuring a number of different device functions via the "Pulsating Flow" Quick
Setup, flow fluctuations over the entire flow range can be compensated for, and pulsating liquid
flows can be measured correctly. The process for executing the Quick Setup menu is described in
detail in the next section.
Note!
It is recommended to always run the "Pulsating Flow" Quick Setup if you are unsure of the exact
flow characteristics.
Low pulsating flows
It is not absolutely essential to run the Quick Setup if only minor flow fluctuations occur, e.g. when
using gear-type pumps, three-cylinder or multi-cylinder pumps.
In such situations, however, it is advisable to adapt the functions listed below (see "Description of
Device Functions" manual) to meet the local process conditions to achieve a stable, constant output
signal. This applies, in particular, to the current output:
• Measuring system damping: "SYSTEM DAMPING" function Increase value
• Current output damping: "TIME CONSTANT" function Increase value

6.3.1Zero point adjustment
Zero point adjustment is generally not necessary!
Experience shows that the zero point adjustment is advisable only in special cases:
• To achieve highest measuring accuracy with very low flow rates.
• Under extreme process or operating conditions (e.g. very high process temperatures or very high
viscosity fluids).
Preconditions for a zero point adjustment
Note the following before you perform a zero point adjustment:
• A zero point adjustment can be performed only with fluids that have no gas or solid contents.
• Zero point adjustment is performed with the measuring tube completely filled and at zero flow
(v=0 m/s). This can be achieved, for example, with shutoff valves upstream and/or downstream
of the measuring range or by using existing valves and gates ( ä 91).
– Standard operation Valves 1 and 2 open
– Zero point adjustment with pump pressure Valve 1 open / valve 2 closed
– Zero point adjustment without pump pressure Valve 1 closed / valve 2 open.
Caution!
"
• If the fluid is very difficult to measure (e.g. containing entrained solids or gas) it may prove
impossible to obtain a stable zero point despite repeated zero point adjustments. In instances of
this nature, please contact your Endress+Hauser service center.
• You can view the currently valid zero point value using the ZERO POINT function
( "Description of Device Functions" manual).

6.3.2Advanced diagnostic functions
Changes to the measuring system can be detected at an early stage with the optional "Advanced
diagnostics" software package (F-CHIP, accessories, ä 99). Such influencing factors normally
reduce the system accuracy or result in system errors in extreme situations.
With the diagnostic functions, it is possible to record various process and device parameters during
measuring operation, such as volume flow, flow velocity, signal strength, sound velocity, etc.
By analyzing the trend of these measured values, deviations on the part of the measuring system
from a "reference state" can be detected at an early stage and countermeasures can be taken.
Reference values as the basis for trend analysis
For trend analysis, reference values of the parameters in question always have to be recorded. These
reference values are determined under reproducible, constant conditions. Reference data are
acquired under customer-specific process conditions, e.g. during commissioning or certain
processes (cleaning cycles, etc.).
Reference values are recorded and saved in the measuring system via the device function
REFERENCE CONDITION USER (7601).
Caution!
"
It is not possible to analyze the trend of process/device parameters without reference values!
Reference values can only be determined under constant, unchanging process conditions.
!
Data acquisition method
There are two different ways of recording process and device parameters. You can specify the
method you would like to use in the function ACQUISITION MODE (7610):
• "PERIODICAL" option: data are acquired periodically by the device. The desired interval is
entered via the "ACQUISITION PERIOD (7611)" function.
• "SINGLE SHOT" option: data are acquired manually by the user at times defined by the user.
Make sure you acquire data when the process conditions correspond to the reference state. This is
the only way deviations from the reference state can be determined reliably and clearly.
Note!
The last ten entries are stored in the measuring system.
The "history" of these values can be called up via various functions:
Diagnostic parameterData records saved (per parameter)
Volume flow
Flow velocity
Signal strength
Sound velocity
Transit time
Acceptance rate
Note!
!
More detailed information on this is provided in the "Description of Device Functions" manual.
Triggering warnings
Where necessary, a limit value can be assigned to the process/device parameters that are relevant
to diagnosis whereby a warning message is triggered if this limit value is exceeded "WARNING
MODE (7603)" function.
The limit value is entered in the measuring system as a relative deviation from the reference value
"WARNING LEVEL (76…)" function.
Deviations can be output via the current or relay outputs.
– Reference value "REFERENCE VALUE ……" function
– Lowest measured value "MINIMUM ……" function
– Highest measured value "MAXIMUM ……" function
– List of the last ten measured values "HISTORY ……" function
– Measured value/reference value deviation "DEVIATION ……" function
Endress+Hauser93
CommissioningProline Prosonic Flow 93
Interpreting data
The interpretation of the data records recorded by the measuring system depends greatly on the
actual application. This means that the user has to have a good knowledge of the process conditions
and the associated deviations in the process, which have to be determined by the user in each
individual case.
For example, knowledge of the permitted maximum and minimum deviations is particularly
important to be able to use the limit value function. Otherwise there is the risk that a warning
message is unintentionally triggered when "normal" fluctuations in the process occur.
There can be several reasons why the system deviates from the reference state. The table below lists
a number of examples and possible causes:
Diagnostic parameterPossible causes behind deviations from the reference value
Signal strengthA change in the signal strength can be put down to changes in the process, e.g.
higher level of gas or solids in the liquid, or less than optimum signal processing as
the coupling fluid has dried out or has been rinsed out.
Sound velocityA change in the sound velocity can be put down to altered process conditions. The
most common reasons are changes in the temperature or makeup of the liquid.
Optimum measurement takes place when the change in sound velocity is smaller
than +/– 10 %.
Measured transit time
Time the signal takes to travel from
the transmitter to the sensor, pipe,
liquid, pipe, sensor and back to the
transmitter. The transit time in the
liquid is relevant for the flow
velocity.
Acceptance rate
The acceptance rate indicates the
number of measurements that are
used for calculating the flow.
The transit time measured is proportional to the sound velocity and behaves like it.
A drop in the acceptance rate is caused by fluctuating signal strength and is an
indicator of gas pockets or solids in the liquid.

– Risk of destroying measuring devices!
Observe the exact positions of the jumpers. If jumpers are incorrectly connected, this can result
in excess current and the destruction of the device itself, or devices connected externally!
– Please note that the position of the current submodule on the I/O board can differ depending on
the order version. Consequently the terminal assignment in the connection compartment of the
transmitter can also differ ä 62.

6.4.3Relay contacts: NC contact/NO contact
The relay contact can be configured as an "NC contact" or "NO contact" via two jumpers on the
I/O board or the relay submodule. The current configuration is displayed in the "ACTUAL STATUS
RELAY" function (4740).

Warning!
Risk of electric shock. Exposed components carry dangerous voltages. Make sure that the power
supply is switched off before you remove the cover of the electronics compartment.

– The configuration of the jumpers on the permanent-assignment board is the inverse of the
configuration on the flexible-assignment board. Observe the illustration in the graphics.
– If reconfiguring, the two jumpers have to be unplugged and plugged into the opposite slot!

6.5Data storage device (HistoROM, F-CHIP)
At Endress+Hauser, the term HistoROM refers to various types of data storage modules on which
process and measuring device data are stored. By plugging and unplugging such modules, device
configurations can be duplicated onto other measuring devices to cite just one example.
6.5.1HistoROM/T-DAT (transmitter-DAT)
The T-DAT is an exchangeable data storage device in which all transmitter parameters and settings
are stored.
Storing of specific parameter settings from the EEPROM to the T-DAT and vice versa has to be
carried out by the user (= manual save function). Please refer to ä 95 for a description of the
related function (T-DAT SAVE/LOAD) and the exact procedure for managing data.
6.5.2F-CHIP (function chip)
The F-CHIP is a microprocessor module that contains additional software packages with which the
functionality, and thus the range of application, of the transmitter can be extended.
The F-CHIP is available as an accessory for subsequent retrofitting and can be simply plugged into
the I/O board. The transmitter can access this software immediately after startup.

Plugging into the I/O board ä 114
Caution!
"
To ensure unique F-CHIP assignment, the F-CHIP bears the serial number of the transmitter as soon
as it has been plugged into the I/O board. This means that the F-CHIP cannot be used for any other
device afterwards.

MaintenanceProline Prosonic Flow 93
7Maintenance
The flow measuring system Prosonic Flow 93 requires no special maintenance.
Exterior cleaning
When cleaning the exterior of measuring devices, always use cleaning agents that do not attack the
surface of the housing and the seals.
Coupling fluid
A coupling fluid is required to ensure the acoustic link between the sensor and the piping. This is
applied to the sensor surface during commissioning. Periodic replacement of the coupling fluid is
usually not required.
!
Note!
• Clean and reapply new coupling fluid when sensor is removed from the pipe.
• Avoid to use a thick layer of the coupling fluid (less is more).
On rough pipe surface e.g. GRP pipes ensure that the gaps crevices within the surface roughness
•
are filled.
• On rough pipe surfaces where a thicken layer of coupling fluid has been applied the risk for dust
collection on washing away is present. In such cases it is recommended to seal the external gap
between the sensor holder and the pipe surface e.g. with.
• A change in the signal strength might indicate a change of the coupling fluid. No action is required
as long as the signal strength is higher than 50 dB.
Apply sufficient coupling fluid.
