1Safety instructions

1.1 Designated use

• The measuring device described in these Operating Instructions is to be used only for

measuring the flow rate of liquids in closed pipes, e.g.:

–Ultrapure water with low conductivity

–water, wastewater etc.

•As well as measuring the volume flow, the sound velocity of the fluid is also always measured.

Different fluids can be distinguished or the fluid quality can be monitored.

•Any use other than that described here compromises the safety of persons and the entire

measuring system and is, therefore, not permitted.

•The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper or non-designated use.

1.2 Installation, commissioning and operation

•The measuring device must only be installed, connected, commissioned and maintained by

qualified and authorized specialists (e.g. electrical technicians) in full compliance with the

instructions in these Brief Operating Instructions, the applicable norms, legal regulations and

certificates (depending on the application).

•The specialists must have read and understood these Brief Operating Instructions and must

follow the instructions they contain. If you are unclear on anything in these Brief Operating

Instructions, you must read the Operating Instructions (on the CD-ROM). The Operating

Instructions provide detailed information on the measuring device.

•The measuring device may only be modified if such work is expressly permitted in the

2 Installation

2.1 Installation conditions

2.1.1 Dimensions

For the dimensions of the measuring device, see the associated Technical Information on the

CD-ROM.

Mounting location

Correct flow measurement is possible only if the pipe is full. Entrained air or gas forming in the

pipe can result in an increase in measuring errors. For this reason avoid the following mounting

locations in the pipe:

•Highest point of a pipeline. Risk of air accumulating.

•Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a vertical pipeline.

A0001103

Fig. 1: Mounting location

Down pipes

Notwithstanding the above, the installation proposal below permits installation in an open down

pipe. Pipe restrictions or the use of an orifice plate with a smaller cross-section than the nominal

diameter prevent the pipe from running empty while measurement is in progress.

Orientation

Vertical

Recommended orientation with upward direction of flow (View A). With this orientation,

entrained solids will sink and gases will rise away from the sensor when the fluid is stagnant.

The piping can be completely drained and protected against solids buildup.

Installation Proline Prosonic Flow 91W

6Endress+Hauser

Horizontal

In the recommended installation range in a horizontal installation position (View B), gas and air

collections at the pipe cover and problematic deposits at the bottom of the pipe have a smaller

influence on measurement.

Inlet and outlet runs

If possible, install the sensor well clear of fittings such as valves, T-pieces, elbows, etc. If several

flow obstructions are installed, the longest inlet or outlet run must be considered. Compliance

with the following inlet and outlet runs is recommended in order to ensure measuring accuracy.

2.2 Preparatory steps prior to installation

Depending on the conditions specific to the measuring point (e.g. Clamp On, number of

traverses, fluid etc.), a number of preparatory steps have to be taken before actually installing the

sensors:

1. Using the conditions specific to the measuring point, determine which installation

distances are necessary for installation.

2. Determine the values for the requisite installation distances.

A number of methods are available for determining the values:

–Local operation of the device

–FieldCare (operating program) procedure explained in the Operating Instructions on

the CD-ROM

–Applicator (software) procedure explained in the Operating Instructions on the

CD-ROM

3. Mechanical preparation of the "Clamp On" holders for the sensors:

– Premount the strapping bands (DN 50 to 200 / 2 to 8") or 

(DN 250 to 4000 / 10 to 160")

2.3 Determining the necessary installation distances

The installation distances that are necessary for installation depend on:

•Insertion version: Clamp On with strapping band, installation in pipe

•Number of traverses or single-path/dual-path version

2.4 Mounting the transmitter

The transmitter can be mounted in the following ways:

• Wall mounting

•Pipe mounting (with separate mounting kit)

"Caution!

• The ambient temperature range (–25 to +60 °C / –13 to +140 °F) may not be exceeded at

the mounting location. Avoid direct sunlight.

•If a warm pipe is used for the installation, ensure that the housing temperature does not

exceed the max. permitted value of +60 °C (+140 °F).

2.6 Mechanical preparation

The way in which the sensors are secured differs on account of the pipe nominal diameter and

the sensor type. Depending on the type of sensor, users also have the option of securing the

sensors with strapping bands or screws such that they can be later removed, or permanently

fixing the sensors in place with welded bolts or welded retainers.

Overview of possible ways to secure the various sensors:

2.6.1 Mounting the sensor holder with U-shaped screws (small nominal diameters)

For mounting on a pipe with a nominal diameter of DN 32 (1¼")

Sensors: Prosonic Flow (DN 15 to 65 / ½ to 2½")

1. Disconnect the sensor from the sensor holder.

2. Position the sensor holder on the pipe.

3. Put the U-shaped screws through the sensor holder and slightly lubricate the thread.

4. Screw nuts onto the U-shaped screws.

5. Set the holder to the exact position and tighten the nuts evenly.
