8. Insert the T-Slot transducer assembly into the meter transducer port. Tighten with
crescent wrench to securely seat the assembly in the mount. Do not over tighten.
9. Plug the transformer module into the transducer holder assembly. The transformer
module is keyed and can only be installed one way.
10. Apply three wraps of Teflon tape to the retainer. Place over the transformer
assembly. Ensure the retainer threads are aligned correctly and hand-tighten. Use a
1 1/8” wrench and turn clockwise until the transformer retainer is fully seated in the
transducer holder.
Note
Do not over tighten the retainer.
11. Place the transformer retainer over the transformer module. Ensure the transformer
retainer threads are aligned correctly and hand-tighten. Use an 1 1/8” wrench and
turn clockwise until fully seated in the transducer holder.
12. Align the keyed transducer cable and securely seat into the transducer holder and
secure with retaining clips.
Note
The transducer cable is keyed and will only go on one way.
13. Repeat Step 1 through Step 12 for all transducer holders to be replaced.
14. Slowly repressurize the meter to line pressure. Check for leaks as the meter is
pressurized. If you hear gas leaking from the threads, recheck all connections and
resolve the problem. Then, slowly repressurize the meter to line pressure.
15. Connect to the meter with Daniel MeterLink and update the transducer parameters.
From the Tools → Transducer Swap-out menu, run the Transducer Swap-out
Wizard. This utility allows you to update the parameters for the components that
are replaced.
Note
Running the Transducer Swap-out utility is required when transducers, mounts,
holders, or stalks are replaced for a chord.
a) After writing all of the changes to the meter’s configuration, open the
Monitor (Detailed View) and verity the meter is acquiring data, the
transducers have good signals and flow profiles for the all of the chords
displayed.
b) Collect and save a Maintenance Log and verify the meter is optimally
performing. Save the meter configuration file. If communicating with the
meter via Modbus or HART, manually update the parameters (see Modifying
the calibration parameters for T-Slot transducers).
