To move the highlight to [Install Flow Tube] press . Press to access the Install Flow
Tube menu.
To access the Flow Tube option list press . Note that this list shows the currently available
flow tube sizes. The number is the size (e.g., 1). The letter represents the material (e.g., S =
Steel, P = PVC, T = Teflon, K = Kynar). In this example, we will install a size 1S Flow Tube. This
1011FTP-1S (Stainless Steel) unit uses a 5/8” Swagelok Tube Fitting.
To select size 1S press . This moves the highlight to [Install Completed?].

Note that the next menu down is Liquid Data. This menu allows you to enter Viscosity (in centis-
tokes) and the Density (specific gravity) data for the liquid to be measured. Data entry in this
menu is optional. The default values are those of Water at 68
°F (20°C). If you choose to edit these
parameters, you should be aware that the viscosity of the liquid is an important factor. It governs
the degree of Reynolds Number compensation that the flow computer applies to the final rate
output. Therefore, flow data errors could result if you enter inaccurate data. Note that the Siemens
Technical Service Group may be able to provide the viscosity data for the liquid to be measured.
