4.2.2 HOW TO SELECT A PIPE SIZE
Selecting a Pipe Size installs the selected pipe parameters into the balance of the Pipe Data menu cells
and prepares the 1010 for Transducer selection and Installation. This option is not applicable if the Pipe
Class is [Manual Entry].
After selecting a pipe class:
To access the [Pipe Size] option list press
To scroll to the required pipe press
To register selection press
4.2.3
HOW TO ENTER THE PIPE OD (in. or mm.)
Use this menu cell to edit the pipe outer diameter. Be aware that you will not be able to complete the
transducer installation successfully unless this information is accurate. In addition, if you change this
parameter on a previously installed site, you will have to repeat the transducer installation. Note: Use
actual pipe dimensions, not ASA code or any other standard. The English/Metric selection in the
Meter Facilities menu determines whether these dimensions are in inches or millimeters.
To enter the Pipe OD:
To enable numeric entry press
Use the keypad’s numeric keys to type the exact outer diameter of the pipe in inches or milli-
meters.
To register the Pipe OD press
4.2.4
HOW TO SELECT A PIPE MATERIAL
The pipe material selection affects flow calibration to a small degree. It also influences the meter-gener-
ated transducer size and spacing recommendations. Select a substitute material if you do not find the
material of your pipe in the pipe table. You can edit each pipe parameter to achieve a closer match. If you
change any pipe parameters, after running the Transducer Install procedure, you may have to re-space
the transducers. The [Pipe Material] option list provides a selection of common pipe materials. The de-
fault pipe material is Steel. Press <Down Arrow> to accept the default setting for this menu cell.
To select a Pipe Material:
To access the [Pipe Material] option list press
To scroll to the required pipe material press
To register selection press
4.2.5
HOW TO ENTER THE WALL THICKNESS
The wall thickness of the pipe is one of the required parameters. The flowmeter needs this data to
generate accurate transducer size and spacing data recommendations. Selecting a pipe class/size in-
serts a wall thickness value. If this data is inaccurate, then use this menu cell to set the pipe’s wall
thickness (in English or Metric data units).
