Technical Specification FLUXUS® G601 Function Measurement Principle In order to measure the flow of a medium in a pipe, ultrasonic signals are used, employing the transit time difference principle. Ultrasonic signals are emitted by a transducer installed on the pipe and received by a second transducer. These signals are emitted alternately in the flow direction and against it.
PAGE 4
FLUXUS® G601 Technical Specification Number of Sound Paths The number of sound paths is the number of transits of the ultrasonic signal through the medium in the pipe. Depending on the number of sound paths, the following methods of installation exist: • reflect arrangement The number of sound paths is even. Both of the transducers are mounted on the same side of the pipe. Correct positioning of the transducers is easier. • diagonal arrangement The number of sound paths is odd.

Technical Specification FLUXUS® G601 Wall Thickness Measurement (optional) The pipe wall thickness is an important pipe parameter which has to be determined exactly for a good measurement. However, the pipe wall thickness often is unknown. The wall thickness probe can be connected to the transmitter instead of the flow transducers and the wall thickness measurement mode is activated automatically. Acoustic coupling compound is applied to the wall thickness probe which then is placed firmly on the pipe.
