Parameter Meaning Options Description
PIPE SS Pipe sound speed
ENGLSH (fps)
METRIC (mps)
Specifies the speed of sound value, shear or transverse wave, for the pipe wall. If the UNITS
value was set to ENGLSH, the entry is in fps (feet per second). METRIC entries are made in
mps (meters per second).
If a pipe material was chosen from the PIPE MAT list, a nominal value for speed of sound
in that material will be automatically loaded. If the actual sound speed is known for the
application piping system and that value varies from the automatically loaded value, the
value can be revised.
If OTHER was chosen as PIPE MAT, then a PIPE SS must also be entered.
PIPE R
Pipe material relative
roughness
(Enter a numeric
value)
The transmitter provides flow profile compensation in its flow measurement calculation.
The ratio of average surface imperfection as it relates to the pipe internal diameter is used
in this compensation algorithm and is found by using the following formula:
Linear RMS Measurement of the Pipes Internal Wall Surface
PipeR =
Inside Diameter of the Pipe
If a pipe material was chosen from the PIPE MAT list, a nominal value for relative roughness
in that material will be automatically loaded. If the actual roughness is known for the
application piping system and that value varies from the automatically loaded value, the
value can be revised.
LINER T Pipe liner thickness
ENGLSH (Inches)
METRIC (Millimeters)
If the pipe has a liner, enter the pipe liner thickness. Enter this value in inches if ENGLSH
was selected as UNITS; in millimeters if METRIC was selected.
LINER MA Pipe liner material
Select a liner material. This list is provided as an example. Additional materials are added periodically. Select the
appropriate material from the list or select OTHER if the liner material is not listed.
Tar Epoxy TAR EPXY HD Polyethylene HDPE
Rubber RUBBER LD Polyethylene LDPE
Mortar MORTAR Teflon (PFA) TEFLON
Polypropylene POLYPRO Ebonite EBONITE
Polystyrene POLYSTY Other OTHER
LINER SS
Speed of sound in the
liner
ENGLSH (fps)
METRIC (mps)
Allows adjustments to be made to the speed of sound value, shear or transverse wave, for
the pipe wall. If the UNITS value was set to ENGLSH, the entry is in fps (feet per second).
METRIC entries are made in mps (meters per second).
If a liner was chosen from the LINER MA list, a nominal value for speed of sound in that
media will be automatically loaded. If the actual sound speed rate is known for the pipe
liner and that value varies from the automatically loaded value, the value can be revised.
LINER R
Liner material relative
roughness
(Enter a numeric
value)
The transmitter provides ow prole compensation in its ow measurement calculation.
The ratio of average surface imperfection as it relates to the pipe internal diameter is used
in this compensation and is found by using the following formula:
Inside Diameter of the Liner
Liner R
=
Linear RMS Measurement of the Liner’s Internal Wall Surface
If a liner material was chosen from the LINER MA list, a nominal value for relative roughness
in that material will be automatically loaded. If the actual roughness is known for the
application liner and that value varies from the automatically loaded value, the value can
be revised.
FL TYPE Fluid/media type
Select a fluid type. This list is provided as an example. Additional liquids are added periodically. Select the
appropriate liquid from the list or select OTHER if the liquid is not listed.
Water Tap WATER Ethanol ETHANOL Oil Hydraulic, Petro-based HYD OIL
Sewage SEWAGE Ethylene Glycol ETH-GLYC Oil Lubricating LUBE OIL
Acetone ACETONE Gasoline GASOLINE Oil Motor, SAE 20/30 MTR OIL

Ammonia AMMONIA Isopropyl Alcohol ISO-ALC Water Sea WATR-SEA
Benzene BENZENE Kerosene KEROSENE Other OTHER
Brine BRINE Methanol METHANOL
