It is possible to enter the pipe circumference instead of the outer pipe diameter, see section 18.1.
If the input of the pipe circumference is activated and zero is entered in Outer Diameter, the menu item Pipe Circumfer.
will be displayed. If the pipe circumference is not to be entered, press key BRK to return to the main menu and start the parameter
input again.
Pipe wall thickness
• Enter the pipe wall thickness.
• Press ENTER.
Pipe material
The pipe material has to be selected to be able to determine the corresponding sound speed.
The sound speeds for the materials in the scroll list are stored in the transmitter.
• Select the pipe material.
• Press ENTER.
• If the material is not in the scroll list, select Other Material.
• Press ENTER.
Sound speed of the pipe material
• Enter the sound speed of the pipe material.
• Press ENTER.
These displays will only be indicated if Other Material is selected.
For the sound speed of some materials, see annex C.
Lining
• Select yes if the pipe has a lining.
• Select no if the pipe has no lining.
• Press ENTER.
Notice!
The inner pipe diameter (= outer pipe diameter - 2 × pipe wall thickness) will be calculated internally.
If the value is not within the inner pipe diameter range of the connected transducers, an error message will be displayed.
It is possible to change the lower limit of the inner pipe diameter for a given transducer type, see section 16.8.
