10 Basic Measurement
• Place the mounting shoe on the pipe. Hold clasp and mounting shoe with one hand
while pushing the tension strap through parts (2) and (1) of the clasp (see Fig. 10.11).
• Pull the tension strap firmly and engage it in the inner hooks of the clasp.
• Mount the second transducer in the same way. Adjust the displayed transducer dis-
tance by means of the measuring tape.
• Tighten the screws of the clasps.
• Push the transducers in the mounting shoes. Press the transducer firmly on the pipe.
There should be no air pockets between transducer surface and pipe wall. Tighten the
screw of the mounting shoe firmly.
Note! The clasp and the metal spring must be in contact completely with
the pipe to ensure a good fixation.
Note! At pipes with large diameters, use tongs, if necessary, to tense the
tension strap.
Note! When the transducers are mounted on a vertical pipe and the flow-
meter is placed lower than the pipe, the cable of the upper transducer
should be fixed to the tension strap by a cable tie to protect the cable
from mechanical strain.
