NOTE:
If the instrument has select e d a guiderail assembly to work in DIAGONAL MODE the floating transducer has to be
removed and placed on the opposite side of the pipe, using the diagonal beam rail and the appropriate mounting
hardware (See 2.9 - ATTACHING THE TRANSDUCERS).
• Connect the red/blue and black sensor cables to both the electronics and the guiderail assembly. The red cable indicates +ve

• Attach to the pipe as shown in figure 3 and turning the knurled knob anti-clockwise, screw the fixed transducer to the pipe,
making finger tight contact.
• Press ENTER and the display will show the separation distance in mm.
• Set the separation distance (see figure 3) by sliding the floating transducer along the scale until the front edge of the block is
at the recommended distance. Now turn the knurled knob anti-clockwise, until in finger tight contact with the pipe surface.

2.3 Charger (only use the charger supplied)
The battery takes 15 hours to fully charge. When the instrument is charging but switched off the display will read CHARGING
and display a battery and plug symbol. When the instrument is in flow mode, the fact that the batter y is charging will be
displayed under Battery. The instru ment also displays a “p lug” symbol when connected to the mains in flow mode.
2.4 Battery
When you first receive your unit put th e batter y on ch arge for a min imum of 15hrs. When fully charged the battery will last up
to 24hrs, depending on the outputs used and how often the back light is operated. If the backlight is enabled, every time a key is
press ed the backlight comes on for 15 seconds. Th is dramat ically reduces th e ba ttery li fe. I f the backlight wa s on continu ous ly
the battery life would reduce down to 8hrs, and if the 4-20mA was used constantly at 20mA, this would reduce the battery life
by 20%. The display in flow mode continually shows the battery level as a percentage. When this indication reads
approximately 20%, it will display a warning message, at which point there is only 30 minutes of use left. The battery can be
charged whil e the instr u ment is in u se or overnight whil e the instrument i s s witched off. The in s trument can be partially charged
and then used.
2.5 Keypad
Programming is via the tactile membrane keypad with rim embossed keys. The keypad is rated at IP65.

There are some facilities that require you to move the cursor on the display left and right as well as up and down. This is done
with keys 5 (left) and 6 (righ t ).
The 4-20mA, Pulse, RS232 and logger keys can only be activated from flow mode (see page 33 - Keypad Options) but the
RS232 and data logger are also on the MAIN MENU.
2.6 Temperature indication/range
The transducers work over two temperatur e ranges. Th e s tandard t emperature rang e is from -20 °C to +100 °C and high
temperature is from –20 °C to +200 °C. The application temperature is displayed when in flow mode only if the prop/temp
sensor cable i s connected. If the in s tr u ment is di s pl aying th e tempera ture produ ced from th e sensor in the transdu cer, then th is
figure will vary if the temperature of the application varies, which could serve as an indication of change in the process. The
instrument can only compensate for a temperature change of ±10°C when reading flow .
2.7 Transducers
The UFM 610 P uses three different transducer types to measure flow which we call “A”, “B” and “C”. These are selected by
the instrument depending on the data entered, the pipe size and flow velocity. There are default settings that are programmed
into the instru ment and most of the tim e these wil l n ot n eed to be chan g ed , al though it is possible t o u se d ifferent transducer sets
on different pi p es outside their nor mal operat ing rang e. ( s ee 3 .4 Select s ensor set ) .

NOTE:
The sensor blocks must always be placed in the guiderail as shown above. If for any reason they get taken out, it is
Figure 8
possible to put them back in the opposite way. This will result in the instrument not working correctly.
Transducer set “A” and transducer set “B” are positioned in the guiderail, to help align the transducer blocks along the pipe axis
correctly. Both the “A” and “B” guiderails have two sensor blocks. One of these is fixed, the other is moveable and can slide up
& down the scale to enable you to set the separation distance required.
The separation distance is calculated by the instrument when the application information has been entered. The fixed sensor can
be identified because it is slightly longer and has two connections as opposed to the floating block only having one connection.
Each guiderail can be mounted to the surface of the pipe using the mounting hardware provided, which includes both velcro and
webbing straps. Magnetic attachments are available as an option with guiderail “B” and the diagonal guider ail, “D” sensors are
supplied with ratchet straps.
2.7.3 Transducer set "A"
These are supplied for pipes 13mm to 89mm inside diameter. They are only supplied with velcro straps, unless the high
temperature version has been supplied. Magnets are not available for this transducer set.
12
2.7.4 Transducer set "B" and "C"
There are two types of transducer block available that both fit into guiderail “B”. One pair for standard velocity on pipes 90mm
to 1000mm, the second pair “C” are for higher velocity flow in pipes 300mm to 2000mm inside diameter. Magnetic attachments
are available to fit onto these guiderails as a standard they are supplied with chains.
2.7.5 Transducer ki t " D "
The “D” transducers are for use on pipes 1000 mm to 5000 mm inside diameter. The sensors are supplied with their own guide
rails, ratchets and webbing straps. They may also be supplied with chains if required, if webbing straps have been supplied with
the standard instrument they also can be used to attach to the “D” guide rail. The “D” sensors are aligned in the same way as
other tr ansducers i.e. in Reflex or D iagonal mode and the s ep ar ation di stance is taken from th e front edge of the block a s shown
in fig ure 12. the transducers are ma d e fr om a p erspex mat er ial with an operatin g range up to +8 0°C. Please state when ordering
“D” sensors whether you were supplied with webbing straps or chains with your original UFM 610 P.
2.8 Separation distanc e
The separation distance is calculated by the instrument when all the parameters have been entered in and the fixed transducer
has been tur ned down onto the pip e s urface. Th e next stag e is to slid e the moveable sensor to the separation di stance r eq ui red
and screw down onto the pipe surface making sure not to overtighten as it may force the fixed sensor off the pipe wall - finger
tight is sufficient! The s ep ar ation distance is the distance betwe en the fr ont face of each sensor bl ock. See Fig u res 9, 10, 1 1, 12
pages 12 & 13, for examples in both reflex and diagonal mode. Connections are made via the LEMO IP65 connectors between
the sensor block and the el ectronics.
2.9 Attaching the transducer
The guiderails are attached to the pipe surface as shown in Figures 9, 10, 11 and 12 using velcro, webbing straps, chains or
magnets.

Figure 12
Ultrasonic couplant must be used on the sensor face to interface with the pipe wall. (See Figures 20, 21 & 22). On applica tions
above 100°C high temperature couplant will be required, and is supplied as standard with high temperature sensors.
2.11 Fluid types
The type of fluids that can be measur ed with the UFM 61 0 P are clean li q u ids or oils etc. that h ave less than 3 % b y volu me of
parti culate content. Liquids that ar e cloudy, li k e ri ver water , effl u ent et c. can be mea sured and al so liquid s tha t are clean , like
demineralised water. During the set up procedure the user is asked to select from a list of liquids (See fluid type 3.2) w hich
includes water and oils. If the liquid to be measured is not listed it is possible for the instrument to measure the propagation rate
automatically, but only when pipes sizes are greater then 40 mm internal diameter (See 6.5). Applications include :- River water,
Seawater, Potable water, Demineralised water, Treated effluent, Water/Glycol systems, Hydraulic systems and Diesel oil.
