To mount Transducers on a 996PSP Pipe Simulator:
¦ Using coupling compound, mount the transducers on the pipe simulator as shown on the previous
page. Slide each transducer until it presses against a pin-stop. Use the clamps to hold the trans-
ducer in place.
¦ Connect cables between each transducer and the computer connectors for the channel under
test. The Up and Down orientation is not important.
¦ Access the Installation Menu. Select [Meter Type] [Single, Dual, or Quad Channel] depending on
meter type. Select the meter channel (1,2,3, or 4) depending on which measurement channel you
intend to test. Select [Clamp-On] and then [Channel Setup].
¦ Access [Channel/Path Setup] menu. Move highlight to [Create/Name Site]. Create a new Site Setup
(e.g., TEST1). You can now enter data without altering an existing Site Setup.
¦ Select the [Pipe Data] Menu. Referencing either the English or metric pipe simulator chart below,
enter the pipe parameters corresponding to the transducer size under test.
