6.2.2 Installation of the transducers
6.2.2.1 Orientation of the transducers and determination of the transducer distance
Observe the orientation of the transducers. If the transducers have been mounted properly, the engravings on the transducers
form an arrow, see Fig. 6.6. The transducer cables show in opposite directions.
The transducer distance is measured between the inner edges of the transducers.
• Select the installation instructions that correspond to the supplied transducer mounting fixture.
Bidirectional measurements
• The sound beam plane is selected
according to the nearest elbow (horizon-
tal or vertical, depending on the pipe
orientation, see above).
