📖 Usage Instructions
Preparation involves ensuring the exterior pipe surface is clean, dry, and free of loose scale or heavy paint. Apply the specified acoustic couplant to the face of the transducers to ensure optimal ultrasonic signal transmission. Mount the transducers onto the pipe using the appropriate clamping fixture, spacing them precisely according to the flow meter’s calculated parameters for your specific pipe size and wall thickness. Finally, connect the BNC cables securely to the compatible GE flow transmitter and perform a signal strength verification before initiating flow measurement.
