Function and system design
Measuring principle The measuring system operates on the principle of transit time difference. In this measurement method,
acoustic (ultrasonic) signals are transmitted between two sensors. The signals are sent in both directions,
i.e. the sensor in question works as both a sound transmitter and a sound receiver.
As the propagation velocity of the waves is less when the waves travel against the direction of flow than along
the direction of flow, a transit time difference occurs. This transit time difference is directly proportional to the
flow velocity.

a
The measuring system calculates the volume flow of the fluid from the measured transit time difference and
the pipe cross-sectional area. In addition to measuring the transit time difference, the system simultaneously
measures the sound velocity of the fluid. This additional measured variable can be used to distinguish different
fluids or as a measure of product quality.
The measuring device can be configured onsite to suit the specific application using Quick Setup menus.
Measuring system The measuring system consists of one transmitter and two sensors.
The transmitter is used both to control the sensors and to prepare, process and evaluate the measuring signals,
and to convert the signals to a desired output variable.
The transmitter is optionally equipped for two-channel operation → ä 6.
The sensors work as sound transmitters and sound receivers. Depending on the application and version, the
sensors can be arranged for measurement via one or two traverses → ä 5.

Mounting accessories
The requisite mounting distances must be determined for the sensors. Information on the fluid, the pipe
material used and the exact pipe dimensions is needed to determine these values. The values for the sound
velocity of the following fluids, pipe materials and lining materials are stored in the transmitter:
Fluid Pipe material Lining
•Water
•Sea water
• Distilled water
• Ammonia
• Alcohol
•Benzene
•Bromide
•Ethanol
•Glycol
•Kerosene
• Milk
• Methanol
• Toluene
•Lube oil
•Diesel
• Gasoline
• Carbon steel
• Ductile iron
• Stainless steel
• Alloy C
•PVC
•PE
•LDPE
•HDPE
•GRP
•PVDF
•PA
•PP
•PTFE
•Glass pyrex
• Asbestos cement
• Copper
•Mortar
• Rubber
• Tar Epoxy
If you are using fluids, pipe materials or lining materials other than those listed in the table, and you do not
have the corresponding sound velocities for these fluids/materials, you can use the DDU18 and DDU19
sensors to determine the values.

(sound velocity measurement)
Nominal diameter range: DN 50 to 3000 (2 to 120")
Wall thickness range:
• Steel pipes: 2 to 50 mm (0.08 to 2.0")
• Plastic pipes: 4 to 15 mm (0.16 to 0.60")
(only suitable for PTFE and PE pipes to a certain extent)
A0009784
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.

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.

Two-channel operation T
he 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
Two-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.

B Measuring channel 2: mounting the sensor pair for measurement via one traverse
Two-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 two-path
measurement. However, in certain situations individual channel configuration can be used to balance out
application-specific asymmetries.
