2.3.1 HOW TO SELECT A LIQUID CLASS
The liquids listed in the [Liquid Class] option list are representative samples of the class of liquids to
which they belong. Selecting a named liquid fills in the Estimated Vs (m/s), Viscosity (cS), and Density
(SG) parameters automatically. However, you have the option of editing these parameters individually to
fine tune the liquid settings. If you do not find a liquid that matches your application, then you can select
[Other]. This selection will not provide a liquid name or automatic parameter entry. Only Ethylene Glycol
(10, 20, 30, 40 & 50%), CaCl Brine (27%) and all water entries provide energy metering services.

Use this menu cell to edit the
Estimated Vs ONLY if you are
sure of a more accurate value.
This will reduce the chances of
a re-spacing request for clamp-
on flow transducers during the
install procedure.
Use this menu cell to edit
the liquid viscosity ONLY
if you are certain that the
data you enter is
accurate. An erroneous
entry could affect meter
calibration.
Use this menu cell to
edit the specific
gravity of the liquid.
