1.3System description

The UFM 3030 ultrasonic flow meter is a precision instrument designed for linear, bi/directional flow measurement of liquids. Flow measurement values can be output via the standard analog and-or pulse/frequency outputs. Via a user friendly operator interface (HMI) the unit can be set up for a wide range of applications. Next to actual volumetric flow measurement the unit can be configured to perform flow totalization (plus, minus and sum). Also measurement and output of the liquid sonic velocity can be configured. Optionally the unit can be set to perform one of the following additional functions:

Calculate and output corrected standard volumetric or mass flow using the external pressure and temperature inputs

Batch function

Heat function, combining T1, T2 and volume

2 Mechanical installation

2.1Handling the flowmeter

Important: Do not lift the compact flowmeter by the signal converter housing or the terminal box. Check the weight of the flowmeter as indicated on the type plate before handling the unit. When handling the flowmeter avoid hard blows, jolts or impacts.

Do not place the flowmeter on the signal converter housing.

2.2Installation location and position

The UFM 3030 flow meter can be installed in horizontal, slightly ascending or vertical pipelines. If installed in a horizontal or slightly ascending pipeline, always install the converter or terminal box in vertical position opposite the flow sensor either with the converter up or down, but never in horizontal position.

8

UFM 3030

If required the position of the signal converter can be modified by turning the display circuit board through 90° or 180° to achieve a horizontal position of the display. In addition the signal converter housing may be turned through 90° opposite the flow sensor.

For an exact description of this procedure, refer to chapter 8.6.

The measuring tube must be completely filled at all times for proper flow measurement, as the sensors become non-wetted, a loss of signal message will be displayed. There is no damage when this occurs.

Flow direction. The UFM 3030 is a bi-directional flow meter. Note the indicating arrow for the positive direction on the flow meter.

It is recommended to protect the signal converter from direct sunlight to prolong the life. Although no direct damage will occur, installation of a sunshield is advised.

Do not expose the signal converter to excessive vibration. To protect the flow meter from excessive vibration support the pipeline on either side of the flow meter.

Make sure there is sufficient room next to the pipe flanges to fit the bolts and nuts.

To achieve the specified accuracy of the flow meter, a straight inlet section of 10 × DN (DN = meter size) and an outlet section of 5 × DN should be applied.

Normally zero setting is not necessary, but if required the zero point can be checked and the meter can be re-zeroed under stationary flow conditions (see Function 1.01.03 of the converter menu). To force zero flow, a shut-off valve should be provided upstream and/or downstream of the flow sensor.

Mixing different fluid products. Install the flow meter upstream of mixing point or at minimum distance of 30× DN (DN = meter size) downstream of the mixing point, otherwise the flow measurement may be unstable.

Ambient temperature all flow meters: -40 to +65°C/ -40 to +149°F

Product temperature compact flow meter: -25 to +140°C/ -13 F to +284°F

Product temperature separate flow meter: -25 to +180°C/ -13 to +356°F

Special versions are available for higher process temperatures.

In case of a pipeline running along a wall: please observe a minimum distance between pipe centreline and the wall of at least 0.5 m (1.6 ft).

2.3Special installation requirements

To avoid measuring errors and malfunctioning of the flow meter due to gas or air inclusions or an empty pipe, please observe the following precautions:

UFM 3030

9

Since gas will collect at the highest point of a pipe, installation of the flow meter at that location should be avoided at all times. Also installation in a down going pipe should be avoided since a completely filled pipe may not be guaranteed due to cascading affects. Additionally flow profile distortion is possible.

Long horizontal pipes: install in slightly ascending pipe section. If not possible, ensure adequate velocity to prevent air, gas or vapour from collecting in upper part of flow tube As a partially filled meter will report higher than actual flow rates, or not measure (as transducer pairs become non-wetted).

Open feed or discharge: Install meter in a lowered section of the pipe to ensure a full pipe condition through the meter.

Down going pipeline over 5 m (16 ft) length: install air vent downstream of the flow meter. To prevent vacuum. While this will not harm the meter, it may cause gases to come out of solution (cavitate) and interfere with proper measurements.

Always install control valves downstream of flow meter in order to avoid cavitation or distortion of flow profile.

Never install flow meter on a pump suction side in order to avoid cavitation or flashing in the flow meter.

2.4Pipe flanges

Refer to dimensional drawings for flange spacing and in addition allow for thickness of gaskets. Install flow meter in line with pipe axis. Pipe flange faces must be parallel to each other, max. Permissible deviation: Lmax - Lmin 0.5 mm (0.02").

10

UFM 3030

2.5Pipes with cathodic protection

Pipes with electric corrosion protection are generally insulated inside and outside so that the fluid has no conductive connection to ground. The flow meter must be insulated from the pipe. Note the following when installing the flow meter:

The pipe flanges must be connected to each other using a copper cable (L), but must not be connected to the flow meter.

The bolts for the flange connections and the gaskets must be insulated. Use sleeves and washers that are made of insulating material (these must be provided by customer).
