Chapter 1. General Installation Instructions

1.1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the AT600 ultrasonic flow meter. The AT600 is a clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter for the measurement of liquid products. It is designed for the industrial applications, including water, wastewater, steel, campus energy, and others. The AT600 utilizes a new electronics platform and industrial design to make it extremely simple to install and use in the field.

• So easy to use, it practically installs itself

The AT600 consists of the new AT600 electronics, a metal enclosure, the field proven AT transducer system, and a clamp-on transducer fixture (see Figure 1 below).

AquaTrans™ AT600 User’s Manual 1

Figure 1: Typical AT600 System Mounted on a Pipe

Chapter 1. General Installation Instructions

1.2 Theory of Operation

The AT600 flow meter uses a procedure called Transit-Time Flow Measurement. In this method, two transducers, which are in acoustic communication with each other, serve as both ultrasonic signal generators and receivers. That is, the second transducer can receive ultrasonic signals transmitted by the first transducer and vice versa.

In operation, each transducer functions as a transmitter, generating a certain number of acoustic pulses, and then as a receiver for an identical number of pulses (see Figure 2 and Figure 3 below). The time interval between transmission and reception of the ultrasonic signals is measured in both directions. When the liquid in the pipe is not flowing, the transit-time downstream equals the transit-time upstream. However, when the liquid is flowing, the transit-time downstream is less than the transit-time upstream. The difference between the downstream and upstream transit times is proportional to the velocity of the flowing liquid and its sign indicates the direction of flow.

1.7 Choosing a Clamp-On Fixture/Transducer Location

For a given fluid and pipe, the accuracy of AT600 depends on the location and alignment of the transducers. In addition to accessibility, when choosing a transducer location, follow these guidelines:

• Position the clamp-on fixture(s) and transducer system so that there are at least 10 pipe diameters of

straight, undisturbed flow upstream and 5 pipe diameters of straight, undisturbed flow downstream from the measurement point (see Figure 7 below). Undisturbed flow means avoiding sources of turbulence in the fluid such as valves, flanges, expansion joints, elbows, swirl, and cavitation.

Figure 7: AT600 Clamp-On Fixture/Transducer Location

• Locate the transducers on a common axial plane along the pipe (see Figure 8 below). The transducers

should be mounted on the side of the pipe, rather than the top or bottom, because the top of the pipe tends to accumulate gases and the bottom tends to accumulate sediment. Either condition may cause excessive attenuation of the ultrasonic signal. There is no similar restriction with vertical pipes, as long as the flow direction is upward to prevent free falling of the fluid in a partially filled pipe.

Figure 8: Good and Bad Transducer Locations

AquaTrans™ AT600 User’s Manual 7

Chapter 1. General Installation Instructions

1.8 Mounting the Clamp-on Fixture and Transducer System

The AT600 transducer system includes one or two clamp-on fixtures, two transducers and one transducer cable. One clamp-on fixture is shipped with both transducers installed and the transducer cable connected to the transducers. This fixture is the default setup for most applications. If a second fixture has been ordered, it is shipped empty.

Transducers available for use with the AT600 flow meter are listed in Table 1 below.

The AT600 clamp-on fixture and AT6 transducer system can be installed on pipe sizes 2 in. (50 mm). For optimum performance in any specific application, either a two-traverse or one-traverse installation can be chosen. Because the maximum pipe size for a single clamp-on fixture is 250 mm for 2 MHz transducers or 320 mm for 1 MHz and 0.5 MHz transducers, the detailed installation requirements differ based on the calculated transducer spacing and the chosen number of traverses. Refer to Table 2 below to find the parameters for your specific configuration.

2.1 Installing an AT600 Clamp-On Fixture and Transducer System

The instructions in this section are for installations using the AT600 clamp-on fixture only. For installations using other clamp-on fixtures, see “Installing a CF-ES Clamp-On Fixture and Transducer System” on page 20 or “Installing a General Clamping Fixture and Transducer System” on page 20.

2.1.1 Transducer Spacing = 32 to 250 mm or 50 to 320 mm, Traverses = 2, Fixtures = 1

Note: A two traverse installation with one clamp-on fixture is the standard AT600 configuration.

When the required transducer spacing is 32 to 250 mm for a 2 MHz transducer or 50 to 320 mm for a 1 MHz or

0.5 MHz transducer, one clamp-on fixture is needed for a dual traverse installation. Proceed as follows:

1. Install the AT600 clamp-on fixture with transducers on the pipe using two mounting straps.

a. Choose a location with enough straight pipe run (refer to Figure 7 on page 7).

b. Install the two mounting straps on the pipe about 12 in. (30 cm) apart (see Figure 10 below).

Figure 10: Mounting Straps Installed on Pipe

c. Hold the fixture against the pipe and move the mounting straps onto the fixture. Then, tighten

the screws on the straps, and verify that the straps remain in place on the fixture (see Figure 11 below).

2.1.2 Transducer Spacing = 320 to 940 mm, Traverses = 2, Fixtures = 2

For a two traverse installation with a calculated transducer spacing of 320 to 940 mm for a 1 MHz or 0.5 MHz transducer, two fixtures are installed on the same side of the pipe. To do so, complete the following steps:

1. Install the four mounting straps on the pipe with a spacing of 12 in. (30 cm) between each pair of straps.

2. Hold one of the clamp-on fixtures, with two transducers and one cable, against the pipe between the upstream pair of straps and move the two mounting straps onto the fixture (see Figure 15 below). Then, tighten the screws on the mounting straps, and verify that the straps remain in place on the fixture.

Figure 15: 2 Traverse Installation with 2 Clamp-On Fixtures

3. Repeat step 2 to install the second clamping fixture, with no transducers or cable, on the pipe between the downstream pair of straps. Use the bar on the second fixture to connect the two fixtures. Then, move the straps onto the second fixture and tighten the screws.

IMPORTANT: Be sure the bar on the left side of the second fixture is in close contact with the bar on the first

fixture.

4. Set the spacing between the two transducers in the upstream clamping fixture to the value calculated by the meter and tighten them back onto the pipe, as follows:

a. Rotate the fixture so that the transducers are in view (see Figure 12 on page 12).

b. Remove the downstream transducer from the first fixture (see Figure 16 below), disconnect the

transducer cable, and route the cable into the second fixture. Then, install the downstream transducer into the second fixture and reconnect the transducer cable. If you are using solid couplant, apply it to both transducer faces. Then, rotate the transducers back onto the rail

2.1.3 Transducer Spacing = 0 to 250 mm or 0 to 320 mm, Traverses = 1, Fixtures = 2

For a one traverse installation with a calculated transducer spacing of 0 to 250 mm for a 2 MHz transducer or 0 to 320 mm for a 1 MHz or 0.5 MHz transducer, two clamp-on fixtures are installed on opposite sides of the pipe. To install this configuration, complete the following steps:

1. Mark a straight line parallel to the pipe centerline on the top of the pipe (i.e., the 12 o’clock position).

2. Use a band tape to measure the circumference of the pipe. Then, mark two additional lines on the

pipe parallel to the first line. Locate these lines 1/4 of the way around the pipe in each direction from the original line (i.e., at the 3 o-clock and 9 o’clock positions).

3. Install two mounting straps on the pipe about 12 in. (30 cm) apart (see Figure 19 below).

4. Hold one clamp-on fixture, with two transducers and one cable, on the pipe along one of the lines

marked in step 2. Then, move the two straps onto the ends of this fixture.

5. Hold the remaining (empty) clamp-on fixture on the opposite side of the pipe from the first fixture.

Then, move the two straps onto the ends of this clamp-on fixture.

6. Align the two fixtures to be equal distances from the band tape. Tighten both straps securely.

For a one traverse installation with a calculated transducer spacing of >320 mm for a 1 MHz or 0.5 MHz transducer, two clamp-on fixtures are installed on opposite sides of the pipe. To install this configuration, refer to Figure 21 below and complete the following steps:

1. Mark a straight line parallel to the pipe centerline on the top of the pipe (i.e., the 12 o’clock position).

2. Use a band tape to measure the circumference of the pipe. Then, mark two additional lines on the

pipe parallel to the first line. Locate these lines 1/4 of the way around the pipe in each direction from the original line (i.e., at the 3 o-clock and 9 o’clock positions).

3. Install the four mounting straps on the pipe with a spacing of about 12 in. (30 cm) between each pair

of straps. Then, mark a fixture position on each of the straight lines, using the band tape as a reference point.

4. Hold one clamp-on fixture, with two transducers and one cable, on the pipe between the pair of

downstream straps and along one of the lines marked in step 2. Then, move the two downstream straps onto the ends of this clamp-on fixture. Tighten the strap screws and verify that the straps remain on the ends of the fixture.

5. Hold the remaining (empty) clamp-on fixture along the line on the opposite side of the pipe from the

first fixture and between the upstream pair of straps. Then, move the two upstream straps onto the ends of this clamp-on fixture. Tighten the strap screws and verify that the straps remain on the ends of the fixture.

Totalizer Pulse Setting Guidelines

When programming the pulse totalizer, a smaller pulse value generally results in higher totalizer accuracy. However, the minimum practical pulse value is limited by the resolution of the pulse counter being used. Thus, one must find the proper balance between the desire for a small pulse value and the capability of the pulse counter to accurately read the pulses output by the AT600.

The best way to illustrate this process is with the following example calculation:

• The parameters set on the previous page are the Pulse Value (PV = the volume of flow per pulse) and

Pulse Time (PT = the width of each pulse).

the

• Program the Pulse Measurement as a Forward Batch Totalizer.

• Consider a process where the volumetric flow rate (VR) fluctuates near 4.6 liter/sec.

• As a typical value, try a PV of VR/20 = 4.6/20. Thus, set PV = 0.23 liter/pulse.

• Then, the duration of each pulse is PV/VR = 0.23/4.6 = 50 ms. As the Pulse Time (PT) is defined as half

the pulse duration, then the correct

PT = 25 ms.

• Program the AT600 frequency output with PV = 0.23 liters/pulse and PT = 25 ms. If your frequency

counter correctly reads the AT600 pulse output, then these settings are appropriate. If not, you need to try different calculations for PV (instead of VR/20) until you find a set of values that can be properly read by your frequency counter. In general, the smallest PV value that is within the resolution specification for your frequency counter will provide the best accuracy for the batch totalizer.
