Introduction 1

1.1 Preface
These instructions contain all the information required to commission and use the SITRANS F
US SONOFLO ultrasonic flowmeter type SONOKIT 1- and 2-tracks with transmitter type FUS060.

These instructions are intended to assist personnel performing mechanical installation, electrical
connection and commissioning of the device, as well as service and maintenance engineers.

1.2 Introduction

The SITRANS F US SONOFLO ultrasonic flowmeter type SONOKIT mounting set is used for
installing one or two sets of ultrasonic transducers type SONO 3200 in existing pipes made of steel
or concrete.
This manual only describes the SONOKIT installation in empty unpressurized pipes. When
installing SONOKIT in pressurized pipes (hot tapping), please contact Siemens Flow Instruments
for further instructions.
SONOKIT is designed for measuring the flow velocity of liquids in full pipes. Satisfactory function
of the ultrasonic flowmeter depends on a low sound attenuation of the medium and a well-defined
and stable flow profile.

The making of an ultrasonic flowmeter by means of the SONOKIT is divided into 4 steps:

1. Calculating and marking the transducer holder position


2. Installing the transducer holders
3. Measuring the sensor geometry
4. Entering the sensor geometry into SITRANS FUS060 transmitter (auto calibration)

Potential Hazards
The ground wire must always be connected to the ground terminal in accordance with the
diagram.

To ensure optimum performance of the measuring equipment it is essential that the


following instructions are followed.

1.6.1 Principle of measurement

Velocity distribution along sound path

A sound wave traveling in the same direction as the liquid flow arrives at point B from point A in
a shorter time than the sound wave traveling against the direction of flow (from point B to A).
The difference in sound transit time indicates the flow velocity in the pipe.
Since delay time is measured at short intervals both in and against flow direction, viscosity and
temperature have no influence on measurement accuracy.

1.6.2 Measuring principle

In SITRANS F US SONOFLO flowmeters the two ultrasonic transducers are placed at an angle
θ in relation to the pipe axis. The transducers function as transmitters and receivers of the
ultrasonic signals. Measurement is performed by determining the time the ultrasonic signal takes
to travel with and against the flow. The principle can be expressed as follows:

v = K ⋅ (tA,B – tB,A) / (tA,B ⋅ tB,A) = K ⋅ ∆t/t²

v = Average flow velocity


t = Transit time
K = Proportional flow factor

This measuring principle offers the advantage that it is independent of variations in the actual sound
velocity of the liquid, i.e. independent of the temperature. Proportional factor K is determined by
wet calibration or “Auto” (SONOKIT only) in case of manual programming of transducer angle,
distance between sensors and pipe dimensions.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 11
1.7 Location (1- and 2-tracks)

The SONOKIT sensor can be installed both indoors


and outdoors, even in exposed surroundings.

The transducer is suitable for media and ambient


temperatures from –20°C to +100°C, the high-
temperature version from –20°C to +200°C. The
temperature range is stated on the data plate on
the transducer. The enclosure rating is IP67 or
optionally IP68. For underground installation a
submersible kit is recommended.

In case of large temperature differences between


the medium and the environment the transducer
must be isolated to avoid 2-phase flow which will
result in inaccurate measuring results.

The space requirements around the pipe for retro-


fitting a SITRANS F US SONOFLO ultrasonic
flowmeter type SONOKIT are shown beside.

Note
The dimensions are minimum values.
Different space requirements apply when retrofit-
ting takes place in pressurized pipes or when the
transducers are exchanged under pressure.

General safety instructions 2

2.1 Safety notes


For safety reasons it is important that the following points, especially those marked with a warning
sign, are read and understood before the system is installed:

• Installation, connection, commissioning and service must be carried out by personnel who
are qualified and authorized to do so.

• It is very important for any person working with the equipment to read and understand the
instructions and directions provided in this manual and follow instructions and directions
before using the equipment.

• Only personnel authorized and trained by the owner of the equipment may operate the
equipment.

• Installation personnel must ensure that the measuring system is correctly connected in
accordance with the connection diagram.

• For applications involving high working pressures or media that can be dangerous to
people, surroundings, equipment or other in the event of pipe fracture, Siemens recommends
taking precautions such as special placement, shielding or installation of a safety guard or
safety valve prior to installation of the sensor.

• Repair and service may be performed by approved Siemens Flow Instruments personnel
only.

2.2 General notes for the user


This operation manual describes the applications of the ultrasonic flowmeters and how you can
start it up, operate and service it. Of particular importance are the warning and information texts.
These are separated from the remaining text, specially identified by appropriate pictograms (see
examples on left), and provide valuable tips on how to avoid maloperations.

Warning means that death, severe personal injury and/or substantial damage to property can
occur if the appropriate safety precautions are not observed.

) Note
is important information on the product itself, the handling of the product or the respective part of
the instruction manual to which particular attention should be paid.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 13
Choice of measuring site for SONOKIT 1-track 3

3.1 SONOKIT 1-track choice of measuring site

3.1.1 Direction of flow


The direction of flow to be marked with an arrow.

3.1.2 Full pipes


The sensor must always be completely filled with
liquid.

The following installations should be avoided:


• Installation at the highest point of the pipe
system
• Installation in vertical pipes with free outlet

With partially full pipes or pipes with free outlet the


flowmeter should be located in a U-shaped tube.

14 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
3.1.3 Installation in horizontal/vertical pipes
Installing the transducers in horizontal position is
recommended.

3.1.4 Measuring liquids containing abrasive or other particles


The sensor should be mounted in vertical or
inclined pipe position to minimize wear.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 15
3.1.5 Inlet and outlet conditions for SONOKIT 1-track
To maximize performance inlet and outlet must be
straight. There must be a certain distance between
meter and bends, pump and valves. It is also
important to centre the flowmeter in relation to pipe
flanges and gaskets.

Valves must always be installed after the flowm-


eter. The only exception is installation of the
sensor in a vertical pipe. In this case a valve below
the sensor is necessary to allow zero-point adjust-
ment. It is important to select a valve which does
not alter the flow when fully open.

Recommended inlet:
Fully open valve, i.e. no flow restriction:
min. 10 × pipe diameter
Partially open valve: min. 40 × pipe diameter
Pumps: min. 40 × pipe diameter
Single bends: min. 20 × pipe diameter
Recommended outlet: 3 × pipe diameter
If more bends than one, please contact Siemens
Flow Instruments for advice.

3.1.6 Installation of transducer type SONO 3200


The transducer type SONO 3200 is used together
with the mounting kit type SONOKIT.

O-ring type:
The transducer has a screwed union for fitting in a
totalizerflange welded onto the pipe. The union and
the pipe are sealed with an O-ring.

The transducer holders are welded directly onto


steel pipes or cast into the walls of concrete pipes
and must be flush with the inside surface of the
pipe.

16 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Construction of the SONOKIT 1-track sensor 4

4.1 Tools etc.


• Length of angle iron to be used as a ruler having a length approximately corresponding to the
outer diameter of the pipe
• Measuring tape
• Scriber, pencil or the like
• Pocket calculator
• Calipers
• Sliding gauge
• Hammer
• Centre punch
• Spirit level
• Roll of adhesive tape

4.2 Tools for installing transducer holders on steel pipe


• Flame cutter or drill with ø 60 mm drill bit for making holes in steel pipes
• Electric or TIG welder for welding the mounting plate and the transducer holder

4.3 Tools for installing transducer holders on concrete pipe


• Special drill unit for drilling ø 46 mm holes in concrete
• Filler

A suitable filler or mortar does not shrink when setting. A comparatively short setting time is
preferred.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 17
4.4 Calculating the transducer position and drawing it on paper (1-track)
The transducer position is calculated using the roll of paper supplied with the mounting kit.
For SONOKIT bigger than DN 1200 the marking is done directly on the pipe.

Drawing paper

Step 1
The following pipe dimensions must be known before calculating the transducer position and
making the drawing.

1. Circumference (C)
2. Wall thickness (t)

The circumference is determined using the measuring tape. Make sure that the pipe's surface is
plane and free of dirt etc. The measuring tape must fit snugly around the pipe. Read the
circumference (C). Repeat the measurement several times to avoid inaccuracies.

The wall thickness is obtained by measuring a similar pipe whose wall thickness is accessible,
or by consulting the relevant standard.

Step 2

Draw a line x-x through the middle of the paper.


The line x-x should be at right angles to the edge of the paper.

18 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Step 3

Mark a point X1 on line x-x. (X1 should be approx. 5 cm from the edge of the paper).

Step 4

Draw a line X1 at right angles to x-x.

Step 5

Mark a point P1 on line X1.

The distance a from X1 to P1 is calculated as follows: a = 0.25 x C

C = Circumference of the pipe


It is useful to draw a circle around P1 (Ø = 60 mm, r = 30 mm)

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 19
Step 6

Mark point X2 on the line x-x at a distance b from point X1.

b is calculated using the formula:

DN 100 - 150 b = 1 x Du

DN 200 - 4000 b = 0.577 x Du

C
Du (outer diameter of the pipe) = π

C = Circumference of the pipe

Step 7

It is useful to draw a circle around P2 (Ø = 60 mm, r = 30 mm).


For marking P2 repeat steps 4 + 5 as shown above.
The drawing on the paper is now finished.

20 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
4.5 Positioning the paper on the pipe (1-track)
Step 1

Remove any rust or dirt from the surface of the pipe.

Find the top line X - X using a spirit level. Place the spirit level on top of the pipe. When it is perfectly
balanced in horizontal position, it intersects the top line.

Mark 4-5 points on the pipe's top line using the above method.

Draw a line X - X through the marked top points using the length of angle iron.

Step 2

Place the paper on the pipe in such a way that the line X1 - X2 on the paper coincides with the top
line X - X on the pipe.
Fix the paper to the pipe with adhesive tape.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 21
Step 3

Punch points P1 and P2 onto the pipe with the centre punch. Make sure that the lines dissecting
the points can be redrawn once the paper is removed.

When preparing a steel pipe, it is useful to draw a circle with a radius of 30 mm around points P,
again using the centre punch, as this will facilitate cutting the holes with a flame cutter.

Remove the paper, and start making the holes.

22 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
4.6 Marking directly on the pipe (1-track)
With pipes larger than DN 1200 the marking will have to be done directly on the pipe.

Marking directly on the pipe is carried out as follows:

Step 1
The following pipe dimensions must be known before calculating the transducer position and
making the drawing.

1. Circumference (C)
2. Wall thickness (t)

The circumference is determined using the measuring tape. Make sure that the pipe's surface is
plane and free of dirt etc. The measuring tape must fit snugly around the pipe. Read the
circumference (C). Repeat the measurement several times to avoid inaccuracies.

The wall thickness is obtained by measuring a similar pipe whose wall thickness is accessible,
or by consulting the relevant standard.

Step 2

Remove any rust or dirt from the surface of the pipe.

Find the top line X - X using a spirit level. Place the spirit level on top of the pipe. When it is perfectly
balanced in horizontal position, it intersects the top line.

Mark 4 -5 points on the pipe's top line using the above method.

Draw a line X - X through the marked top points using a length of angle iron.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 23
Step 3

Mark a point X1 on top line X - X.

Draw a line at right angles to the top line X - X through point X1.

To construct the line through X1 place a strip of metal foil around the pipe, thus ensuring that the
line is at right angles to the pipe.

Step 4

Mark point P1 on the line at a distance a from X1.

Point P1 is on the side of the pipe. Therefore distance a is calculated as follows:

a = 0.25 x C

C = Circumference of the pipe

24 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Step 5

Mark point X2 on line X-X at a distance b from point X1.

b is calculated using the formula:

DN 100 - 150 b = 1 x Du

DN 200 - 4000 b = 0.577 x Du

Du (outer diameter of the pipe) = C

4.7 Installation of the transducer holders (1-track)
Step 1

Cut or drill 2 holes centred on P1 and P2. Dimension of the holes: ø 60 mm +5/-0.

Step 2
Place a set of transducer holders and mounting
plates on the mandrel (supplied with the kit) without
permanently fixing them.

26 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Step 3
Tack-weld the mounting plates in at least 3 places
with transducer holders and mandrels mounted.

Step 4

Remove transducer holders and mandrel, and weld the mounting plates completely onto the pipe.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 27
Step 5
Mark a point on the transducer holders marking line
at a distance c.
c is determined by measuring the wall thickness t
and the mounting plate m.
Mount the transducer holders so that they are flush
with the inner surface of the pipe.
c is calculated using the following formula:

c = (t + m) x 1.15

The correctly positioned transducer holders are


tack-welded in at least 3 places with mandrels
inserted.
Remove the mandrel and fully weld the transducer
holders. Make sure that the transducer holders
are bent as little as possible by the heat gener-
ated during welding.

Step 6
Check whether the mandrel can still pass through
the transducer holders. Correct the alignment of the
transducer holders if necessary. Use a 1½” protec-
tion nut to protect the transducer holders' thread
and a hammer.

28 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
4.8 Installation on concrete pipe
Step 1
Measuring and marking as for steel pipes using the
drawing paper supplied with the mounting kit or
directly on the pipe, see above.
Once points P1 and P2 are marked, the holes can
be made.

Step 2
Drill 2 holes, ø 46 mm, into the wall of the pipe at an
angle of 60°, advantageously using the drill unit
shown on the left. The unit is not part of the
mounting kit, but can be rented from companies
specializing in construction equipment.
The unit contains a core drill bit, an ordinary
handheld drill and a device for fastening the unit to
the pipe wall.
The unit is fastened to the pipe wall by means of
vacuum or clamping band.

Step 3
After having drilled the four holes, mount the
transducer holders with mandrel inserted.
Remember to use O-rings to seal the transducer
holders.

Step 4
Fix the transducer holder to the pipe by means of
mortar.
Make sure that the mandrel is not exposed to the
mortar as this might result in the mandrel getting
stuck to the transducer holders.
The mandrel keeps the transducer holders in place
until the mortar has set.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 29
4.9 Measuring the SONOKIT - 1-track

To allow automatically theoretical calibration by the FUS060 transmitter the sensor must be
measured.

The following sensor data must be known:

⇒ θ = Angle between sound track and longitudinal axis of the pipe

⇒ L = Distance between transducer windows

⇒ Di = Inside diameter of the pipe

The inaccuracies with which θ, L and Di are measured directly influence the measuring accuracy
of the finished system during theoretical calibration. Be sure to choose measuring equipment with
a suitable measuring accuracy.

DN 100-400 The table shows the required measuring accuracy:


∆θ 0.1°
DN 400-4000
DN 100-400 0.2 mm
∆L
DN 400-1000 0.8 mm
and
DN 1000-2000 2.0 mm
∆Di
DN 2000-4000 4.0 mm

Step 1
Measuring the angle (θ)

Measure the angle at each transducer holder se-


veral times and calculate the average of all meas-
urements at each transducer holder.

Enter angle θ of each transducer holder into the


measuring report. Calculate the mean angle of each
sound track and enter the value into the measuring
report.

30 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Step 2
Distance between transducers (L)

Measure L for each sound track and enter the value


into the measuring report.

L may be measured by inserting the mandrel or a


similar instrument into the transducer holders, which
makes it possible to measure the distance between
the thread ends of both transducer holders, see
drawing.

* Valid for standard 160 mm transducers.


With other transducer lengths, set in dimensions
corresponding to these lengths.

Step 3

Measuring the inside diameter (Di)

The inside diameter Di can also be calculated on the basis of the circumference C according to
the following formula:

Di = (C / π) - (2 x t)

The precise wall thickness t is measured with a sliding gauge after the holes have been made.

Enter Di into the measuring report.

Choice of measuring site for SONOKIT 2-tracks 5

5.1 SONOKIT 2-tracks choice of measuring site

5.1.1 Direction of flow


The direction of flow to be marked with an arrow.

5.1.2 Full pipes


The sensor must always be completely filled with
liquid.

The following installations should be avoided:


• Installation at the highest point of the pipe
system
• Installation in vertical pipes with free outlet

With partially full pipes or pipes with free outlet the


flowmeter should be located in a U-shaped tube.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 33
5.1.3 Installation in horizontal pipes
Installing the transducers in horizontal position is
recommended.

5.1.4 Measuring liquids containing abrasive or other particles


The sensor should be mounted in vertical or in-
clined pipe position to minimize wear.

34 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
5.1.5 Inlet and outlet conditions
To maximize performance inlet and outlet must be
straight. There must be a certain distance between
meter and bends, pump and valves. It is also
important to centre the flowmeter in relation to pipe
flanges and gaskets.

Valves must always be installed after the flowm-


eter. The only exception is installation of the sensor
in a vertical pipe. In this case a valve below the
sensor is necessary to allow zero-point adjust-
ment. It is important to select a valve which does
not alter the flow when fully open.

Recommended inlet:
Fully open valve, i.e. no flow restriction:
min. 10 × pipe diameter
Partially open valve: min. 40 × pipe diameter
Pumps: min. 20 × pipe diameter
Single bends: min. 10 × pipe diameter
Recommended outlet: 3 × pipe diameter.
If more bends than one, please contact Siemens
Flow Instruments for advice.

5.1.6 Installation of transducer type SONO 3200


O-ring type:
The transducer has a screwed union for fitting in a
totalizerflange welded onto the pipe. The union and
the pipe are sealed with an O-ring.

The transducer holders are welded directly onto


steel pipes or cast into the walls of concrete pipes
and must be flush with the inside surface of the
pipe.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 35
Construction of the SONOKIT 2-tracks sensor 6

6.1 Necessary tools


• Length of angle iron to be used as a ruler having a length approximately corresponding
to the outer diameter of the pipe
• Measuring tape
• Scriber, pencil or the like
• Pocket calculator
• Calipers
• Sliding gauge
• Hammer
• Centre punch
• Spirit level
• Roll of adhesive tape

6.2 Tools for installing transducer holders on steel pipe


• Flame cutter or drill with ø 60 mm drill bit for making holes in steel pipes
• Electric or TIG welder for welding the mounting plate and the transducer holder

6.3 Tools for installing transducer holders on concrete pipe


• Special drill unit for drilling ø 46 mm holes in concrete
• Filler

A suitable filler or mortar does not shrink when setting. A comparatively short setting time is
preferred.

36 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
6.4 Calculating the transducer position and drawing it on paper (2-tracks)
The transducer position is calculated using the roll of paper supplied with the mounting kit.
For SONOKIT bigger than DN 1200 the marking is done directly on the pipe.

Step 1

The following pipe dimensions must be known before calculating the transducer position and
making the drawing.

1. Circumference (C)
2. Wall thickness (t)

The circumference is determined using the measuring tape. Make sure that the pipe's surface is
plane and free of dirt etc. The measuring tape must fit snugly around the pipe. Read the
circumference (C). Repeat the measurement several times to avoid inaccuracies.

The wall thickness is obtained by measuring a similar pipe whose wall thickness is accessible,
or by consulting the relevant standard.

Step 2

Draw a line x-x through the middle of the paper.


The line x-x should be at right angles to the edge of the paper.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 37
Step 3

Mark a point X1 on line x-x. (X1 should be approx. 5 cm from the edge of the paper).

Step 4

Draw a line X1 at right angles to x-x.

Step 5

Mark a point A on line X1.

The distance a from X1 to A is calculated as follows: a = 0.25 x C

C = Circumference of the pipe

38 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Step 6

Mark points P1 and P2 at a distance d from point A.

d is calculated using the formula: d = @d x C


For @d, see table of corrections factors.
It is useful to draw a circle around P1 and P2 (Ø = 60 mm, r = 30 mm).

Step 7

Mark point X2 on the line x-x at a distance b from point X1.

b is calculated using the formula: b = @b x C


For @b, see table of corrections factors.

Step 8

For marking P3 and P4 repeat steps 4 - 6 as shown above.


The drawing on the paper is now finished.
It is useful to draw a circle around P3 and P4 (Ø = 60 mm, r = 30 mm).

Pipe wall thickness


Steel pipes (AISI 316 and St. 37.2 or corresponding material): Transducer and holder supplied in length L = 160,
allowing a pipe wall thickness up to 20 mm (0.79").

Concrete pipes: Transducer and holder supplied in length L = 230, allowing a pipe wall thickness up to 200 mm (7.9").

40 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
6.6 Positioning the paper on the pipe (2-tracks)
Step 1

Remove any rust or dirt from the surface of the pipe.

Find the top line X - X using a spirit level. Place the spirit level on top of the pipe. When it is perfectly
balanced in horizontal position, it intersects the top line.

Mark 4 -5 points on the pipe's top line using the above method.

Draw a line X - X through the marked top points using the length of angle iron.

Step 2

Place the paper on the pipe in such a way that the line X - X on the paper coincides with the top
line X1 - X2 on the pipe.
Fix the paper to the pipe with adhesive tape.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 41
Step 3

Punch points P1, P2, P3 and P4 onto the pipe with the centre punch. Make sure that the lines
dissecting the points can be redrawn once the paper is removed.

When preparing a steel pipe, it is useful to draw a circle with a radius of 30 mm around points P,
again using the centre punch, as this will facilitate cutting the holes with a flame cutter.

Remove the paper, and start making the holes.

42 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
6.7 Marking directly on the pipe (2-tracks)
With pipes larger than DN 1200 the marking will have to be done directly on the pipe.

Marking directly on the pipe is carried out as follows:

Step 1
The following pipe dimensions must be known before calculating the transducer position and
making the drawing.

1. Circumference (C)
2. Wall thickness (t)

The circumference is determined using the measuring tape. Make sure that the pipe's surface is
plane and free of dirt etc. The measuring tape must fit snugly around the pipe. Read the
circumference (C). Repeat the measurement several times to avoid inaccuracies.

The wall thickness is obtained by measuring a similar pipe whose wall thickness is accessible,
or by consulting the relevant standard.

Step 2

Remove any rust or dirt from the surface of the pipe.

Find the top line X - X using a spirit level. Place the spirit level on top of the pipe. When it is perfectly
balanced in horizontal position, it intersects the top line.

Mark 4 -5 points on the pipe's top line using the above method.

Draw a line X - X through the marked top points using a length of angle iron.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 43
Step 3

Mark a point X1 on top line X - X.

Draw a line at right angles to the top line X - X through point X1.

To construct the line through X1 place a strip of metal foil around the pipe, thus ensuring that the
line is at right angles to the pipe.

Step 4

Mark point A on the line at a distance a from X1.

Point A is on the side of the pipe. Therefore distance a is calculated as follows:

a = 0.25 x C

44 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Step 5

Mark points P1 and P2 at a distance d from point A.


It is useful to draw a circle around P1 and P2 (Ø = 60 mm, r = 30 mm).

d is calculated using the formula: d = @d x C


For @d, see table 1.

Step 6

Mark point X2 on line X-X at a distance b from point X1.

b is calculated using the formula: b = @b x C


For @b, see table 1.

Step 7

For marking P3 and P4 repeat steps 4 - 6 on the opposite side of the pipe.
The drawing is now finished.
It is useful to draw a circle around P3 and P4 (Ø = 60 mm, r = 30 mm).

Remove transducer holders and mandrel, and weld the mounting plates completely onto the pipe.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 47
Step 5
Mark a point on the transducer holders marking line
at a distance c.
c is determined by measuring the wall thickness t
and the mounting plate m.

Mount the transducer holders so that they are flush


with the inner surface of the pipe.

c is calculated using the following formula:

c = (t + m) x 1.15

The correctly positioned transducer holders are


tack-welded in at least 3 places with mandrels
inserted.

Remove the mandrel and fully weld the transducer


holders. Make sure that the transducer holders
are bent as little as possible by the heat gene-
rated during welding. Repeat for second track.
Step 6
Check whether the mandrel can still pass through
the transducer holders. Correct the alignment of the
transducer holders if necessary. Use a 1½” protec-
tion nut to protect the transducer holders' thread and
a hammer.

6.10 Measuring the SONOKIT - 2-tracks
To allow theoretical calibration by the FUS060 transmitter the sensor must be measured.

The following sensor data must be known:

⇒ θ = Angle between sound track and longitudinal axis of the pipe

⇒ L = Distance between transducer windows

⇒ Di = Inside diameter of the pipe

⇒ H = Distance between sound track and centre axis of the pipe calculated from Ha and Hb.
Distance between sound tracks see "Sensor geometri measurement report, sensor type

• The EC Type Examination Certificate - Do not install the device under voltage. Danger of
electric shock! -The version for power supply DC 19 to 30 V may only be connected to SELV
or PELV circuits.

The SITRANS FUS060 transmitter comply with the following electrical installation categories:
• Version for 115 to 230 V AC: Installation Category II
• Version for 24 V AC/DC: Installation Category II

General requirements:
• The power supply should be connected via a circuit breaker and fused via a fuse (max. 4 A).
• Use cables with a cross section of at least 1.5 mm2 and double or reinforced insulation for the
power supply.
• Lay heat-resistant cables if high temperatures can occur on the housing, e.g. due to conduction
of heat by the sensor/metering tube. Lay the cables so that they do not come into contact with
the hot sensor/metering tube.
• Lay signal cables separately from cables with voltages > 60 V.
• Use cables with twisted wire pairs.
• Full HART 5.1 specifications only with shielded cables.
• Earth the transmitter housing.

• The cables used for connection must have fitting diameters to the glands.
• Use shield cable to the outputs
• Compare the data on the rating plate with the local power supply.
• Release the lid lock of the terminal box by turning the 3 mm hexagon socket screw.
• Unscrew the lid from the terminal box.
• Push the power cable and the signal cable through the cable glands up to the terminal block.
Lay the cable in a bend in front of the cable glands to prevent moisture getting into the terminal
block.
• Use signal cables with shielded wire pairs if the analog output and pulse/frequency output are
to be used simultaneously and the signals are transmitted in one cable.
• Make the connection. Fit end ferrules to fine wire cables.
• Connect the PE cable of the power supply to the earth terminal in the terminal box.
Use a cable length so that the PE conductor is the last one to come away when you pull the
cable.
• Mount the lid for the power supply terminals in devices with ignition protection (PROFIBUS
only) ATEX II 2G EEx de IIC T6 / II 2G EEx d [ia] IIC T6.
• Tighten the cable gland and check strain relief.
• In devices with protection type ATEX II 2G EEx de IIC T6/II 2G EEx d [ia] IIC T6 replace an
unused cable gland with a certified blind plug.
• Screw the lid tightly to the housing, do not use a tool. The sealing ring must be clean and
undamaged.
• Mount the lid lock.

9.1 Keypad and display lay-out


The device is operated with the optical keypad on the operating and display panel. These are
operated by touching the appropriate fields on the glass panel with your fingertips. The individual
device functions/parameters are selected and changed by alternately actuating the optical
keypad with the menu-guided operation in the display.

The operating structure is explained below.

9.2 Operating concept of the operating and display panel


Operation is based on a hierarchically structured operating concept, i.e. all functions/parameters
are grouped logically and carry a menu code.
The seven main functions are selected in the main menu:
1. Display
2. Diagnostics
3. Measurement functions
4. Device outputs
5. Identification
6. Service
7. Sensor parameters

The individual functions and parameters for further groups are combined within these main groups.

62 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
9.3 Menu structure

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 63
The available device functions and parameters are shown in the second line of the display.
Selection takes place with the and keys. These are shown in the second line of the
display. Enter the device function or the setting level of the parameters with
key(Enter function). It is possible to exit the selected function or setting level without storage
of the change by use key until the cursor key move to the last left position.

The currently valid setting appears after selecting the setting level of a parameter. If
programming is enabled the programmable value flashes in the second line of the display. The
parameter setting can be changed. There are two different types of data input:
• direct numerical input
• input from given table

In the numerical input, the and keys have the function of a cursor control. The selected
digit flashes. With the and keys the desired digit is set or the decimal point moved to the
right or left. Digits are input with carry over to the next highest place. After selecting the last digit,
the input is confirmed by use the key. The entered value is accepted if it is within the
permissible input range. In this case the user guidance returns to the selection menu for the
parameters of the group concerned. If the entered value is rejected, an error message briefly
appears on the display and then the previous setting. The value can be changed again.

Note !
• If the and keys are operated permanently (finger left on the glass panel) the numeric
value or setting option is changed continuously in tabular selection. A numeric input carries
over to the next highest position.
• If an accidentally changed setting is wrong, it is possible to exit the menu item by actuating
the key several times (return to the next menu level up).

9.4 Disabling or enabling access to settings


Programming of the device by unauthorized persons can be disabled with a personal, freely
selectable code in the operating and display panel. Device functions and parameters can then only
be changed after entering the code. The personal code is determined in the menu item “6.2
Customer code”
If the and keys are actuated in the parameter setting level, the request to enter the code
appears in the display. It is also possible to enter the code in menu item “6.1 Code-Input”. The
programming is disabled again:

• after returning to the display mode


• about 10 minutes after actuating the last optical keypad
• after entering any number, not the code number, in the menu item “6.1 Code-Input”

Note!
• The programming is always enabled with code = 0 (factory setting).

Device functions and parameters 10

The following sections describe only some of the device function parameters in the table that need
further explanations.

10.1 Main menu: Display (menu 1)


Note !
Backlight setting
Off: Light in 3 min after last key action.
On: On for 1 hour after last key action.

Totalizer reset menu 3.4.3, 3.5.3, 3.6.5


The individual totalizers can be reset to zero with this menu. Selection takes place with the
and keys.
For all three totalizers the following possibilities exist:
- No action
- Reset + stop
- Reset + start

Reset + stop, means the totalizer will be stopped and reset.


Reset + start, means the totalizer will continue after reset of totalizer.

In the “1.3 Totalizer“ menu the total flow quantity is displayed. The display appears as a volume
or mass depending on the selection volume unit/mass unit in menu 3.4, 3.5, 3.6.

The menu is divided as follows:


3.4 - Volume forward or mass forward (flow quantity in positive flow direction)
3.5 - Volume reverse or mass reverse (flow quantity in negative flow direction)
3.6 - Net volume or net mass (positive flow quantity minus negative flow quantity)

In the “3.4.3”, “3.5.3”, “3.6.5”, “Totalizer reset” menu the totalizer can be reset to zero - either with
stop of the totalizer or reset and on-going totalizer.

Menu 1.7 and 1.8


The arithmetically calculated output variables are displayed in the menu “Current output” and
“Frequency” irrespectively of whether the output is used.

Language selection, menu 1.1.1


If language is selected to other language than English – press 4 x (yellow key) to change
language into preferred language with key.

10.2 Main menu: Diagnostics (menu 2)

Device status, menu 2.1


2.1 Device status Error message “Ok” See failure table “Error message” below

The test-routines are systematically executed during the normal operation. The error is indicated by a blinking notice
on the display:
• D: Device error
• F: Process error

The error can be shown on the analog and digital outputs.

The error is described by the variable status_display (menu 2.1). The error messages and their assignment to the
display notice, analog output, and digital outputs are noted in the table.
Error message! Reference source not found.

Suppress error, menu 2.2


In this menu item, error messages such as “Illegal flow measurement” and/or “Measuring path disturbed” are
eliminated so that no error message is read either on the display or at the current output. After every reset of the device
all error messages are available again, there is therefore no storing of this menu setting.

Device test, menu 2.3


The following test routines are available:

Self test, menu 2.3.1


The self test routines test the hardware and has a duration of about 10 sec.
If there is no error, “OK” is displayed, otherwise “not OK”. The type of error can be read out in the menu item “2.1 Device
Status”.

Display test, menu 2.3.2


The LCD is checked with this menu item. The display is dark for about 5 seconds at first and then bright for about
5 seconds.

Simulation, menu 2.4


The signal circuits of the analog output and the digital output 1 and 2 can be checked here. The value to be simulated
can be selected in the individual menu. The setting becomes active after confirming the selected value.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 77
10.3 Main menu: Measuring functions (menu 3)

The flow, range and limit values can be displayed as follows:


Flow select (volume unit per time) or mass flow (mass unit per time).

The volume flow qv is converted to mass flow qm with the density entered (qm = qv * ρ in menu
“Density”).
Depending on the selection made, the quantities in the menu “1.3 Totalizer” are specified in the
function group “Display”.

Flow, sound velocity and amplitude US: Menu 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3
The measuring variables flow, sound velocity or ultrasonic amplitude can be assigned to the
analog output and the limit value message for digital output 2. The appropriate measuring ranges
and limit values are set in the subsequent sub-menus.
Every sub-menu is further divided for setting the subsequent values.
– Measuring range full scale value
– Measuring range start of scale value (omitted for flow, start of scale = 0)
– Limit value max (upper limit value)
– Limit value min (lower limit value)
– Hysteresis
– Damping (Filter time constant)

The selection made here defines the unit for several parameters simultaneously:
– for volume or mass flow: Measured value display, measuring range and limit value formation
– for volume or mass: Display, totalizer reading and pulse valency.

Hysteresis

The effect of the hysteresis is shown in figure

Density, menu 3.1.4


The physical unit is selected in menu 3.1.4.
After entering units the display will automatically step into “Density”.

The density of the medium is entered in this menu (step 2) to convert the volume flow to mass
flow (see also menu “3.1.1 Units”).

Note!
Input of the density is unnecessary and ineffective when the “Volume flow” setting has been
selected in menu “3.1.1 units “.

Direction, menu 3.1.5.1


Determination of the main flow direction.

78 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Measurement direction, menu 3.1.5.2
SITRANS FUS060 is able to measure in both flow directions (forward and reverse) or in forward
direction only. The selection is made by the setting.
– forward + reverse
– forward only

If “forward” is parameterized, signals are only output or accumulated internally for a flow in this
direction.

Setting “Forward+reverse” Setting “Forward”

Hysteresis of flow, menu 3.1.5.3


Signaling of the flow direction can operate with a hysteresis determined by the user. The setting
is made in % of the full scale value in menu item “3.1.5.3 Hysteresis”. If, for example, the
hysteresis is 1%, the relay contact does not switch until a flow of –1% of the full scale value and
returns to the original position at a flow of +1% of the full scale value.
The operating principle of the relay (digital output 2), contact open or closed in forward flow-
direction is determined in menu item “4.3.2 Signal Type”.

Example 1: Hysteresis = 0% Example 2: Hysteresis = 1%

The others hysteresis menus are in the same principle.

Note !
The low flow cut off suppression has no influence on signaling of the flow direction.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 79
10.4 Main menu: Device output (menu 4)

The analog output is only active for the device with HART interface.

Analog output select

4.1.1 Analog output Assignment of a measured Flow Flow


select variable to the output signal Sound velocity
US amplitude

There are three types of measurements which can be assigned to the analog output:
• Flow
• Sound velocity
• US Amplitude

Current limit, menu 4.1.2


The upper current limit for the output signal is determined in this menu item.

Current limiting

Error signal, menu 4.1.3


In the case of an error (see table “Error messages”) the analog output has the following error
signals:

The following settings are possible:


- 3.6 mA
- 22 mA
- 24 mA
- Hold for a defined time (5, 20, 40, 60, 120 or 240 seconds), then 3.6 mA
- Hold continuous

With the “Hold 5 s” setting, brief disturbances (e.g. air entrapped in the medium) can be bridged
for about 5 seconds without an error message via the analog signal.
The same applies for “Hold 20 s”, “Hold 40 s” etc.
The last valid measured value is output during the disturbance. If the disturbance lasts less than
5 s the current measured value is output at the end of the disturbance. If the disturbance persists
(e.g. disturbance lasts longer than 5 s), the output signal is set to 3.6 mA.
In the “Hold continuous” setting, the last valid value is output for as long as the disturbance
persists, helpful in the configuration is the possibility of selectively suppressing error messages,
see menu 2.2.

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 81
Signals with positive and negative logic can be generated (positive or negative pulses).
Figure explains the setting options.

Pulse output
The pulses are converted in a volume/impulse or mass/impulse block. There are two parameters
to be set for the impulse output in the menu which are used in this block:

• Pulse rate, menu 4.2.3: For example this value determines how many cubic meters have to
flow through to make one impulse. By setting of this value you can change the unit (unit/
impulses) to easier set the pulse volume.

• Pulse width, menu 4.2.4: The impulse width can be set in the range from 0.1 to 2000 ms.
The maximal impulse width is computed according to the set flow upper value.
The maximal frequency for impulse output is 5 kHz.

Full scale frequency, menu 4.2.5


The output frequency is converted in a volume/frequency block from volume.
The frequency is hard assigned to the volume. The duty cycle rate is constant 50%.
The frequency for the flow upper value is given by the variable.

Digital output 2 relay, menu 4.3


The digital output 2 is configured and parameterized with this menu.

82 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
Function, menu 4.3.1
The digital output 2 (relay contact) can be configured for reporting the device status (device fault,
measuring error), the flow direction or a limit for flow, US velocity, US amplitude.

The possible alarm states are following:


• Alarm - device state status
• Flow direction forward
• Flow min - flow below lower limit
• Flow max - flow above upper limit
• Flow min/max - flow either under below limit or above upper limit
• Min/max US velocity
• Max US level

Totalizers will not be erased.

Control values, menu 6.5


In this menu, device-internal data used mainly for error diagnosis can be read out of up to max
4-tracks.
The displayed values in the individual menu depend on the respective application (medium).
The following data are available:
- Gain
- Amplitudes
- Trigger level
- Error %
- Time of flight - up
- Time of flight - down
- Amplitude
- Difference in time of flight (TOF)

SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02 85
Gain, menu 6.5.1
Every transducer gain - level can be read out.
These parameters are read only values in the range 0…255.

Unused tracks will show 0.

Amplitudes, menu 6.5.2


This value shows the peak amplitude of the selected US-track in digital units from 0 … 255 which
means 0…5 V.

Trigger-levels, menu 6.5.3


The trigger level is used to recognize the ultrasonic signal. The trigger-level will be calculated from
the last signal level amplitude.

Error count %, menu 6.5.4


The menu shows the ERROR TOTALIZER in % for each track.

Time of flight (TOF), menu 6.5.5


The time of flight is the time the ultrasonic signal takes to travel from one transducer to the
other. The time of flight is dependent on sensor size, angle, media and temperature of the
media.

Time of flight difference, menu 6.5.7


This variable is a read only value.
The time of flight difference is the real difference: TOF up – TOF down.

10.7 Main menu: Sensor parameters (menu 7)

In this section - measured values from “SENSOR GEOMETRY MEASURING REPORT” are
used.

Important
From factory all values having influence of the calibration date have been programmed with
nominal default values corresponding to ordered device.
Therefore new measurement data must to be entered into SITRANS FUS060 menu structure
item 7.1.

Sensor calibration , menu 7.1


Calibration choice

7.1.1 Calib. The calibration choice AUTO WET or AUTO


choice

As we can see in the menu 7.1.1 - calibration choice, the switching between WET and AUTO have
a big influence to the calibration and calculation of the flow value.
When AUTO is selected the calibration constants will be taken from geometrical data entered from
measuring report.
With automatical calibration, there are several more input parameters, which will be combined and
calculated and have an output as the calibration factor. These formula output values for track 1,
2, 3, 4 are then read only parameters which are accessible via PDM only.

86 SFIDK.PS.029.Z2.02
SONOKIT uses “AUTO” to determine the calibration constants based on input of:
- Pipe diameter
- Length from transducer front to transducer front of every track used
- Displacement of transducer from the center of pipe
- Average angle of every track used
- Length of used cable in one sound track
- Roughness
- Viscosity

Note:
Automatic calibration can only be used for ordinary round shape pipes.

Nice to know:
When WET is selected, the calibration parameters will be taken from the factory calibration
process. These parameters will be stored in special WET calibration parameters.

Note:
Please use AUTO calibration mode for all SONOKIT systems.

Viscosity of the media, menu 7.1.2.1

7.1.2.1 Viscosity The viscosity 0.01 cm2/s 0.005 ... 5 cm2/s

The viscosity value will be used in the flow constant formula.


The viscosity is default set to 0.01 cm2/s.

Correction factor, menu 7.1.2.2


This is an user parameter that can be used to adjust the calculated flow.

Offset compenstation, menu 7.1.2.3


The offset compensation is equal to the addition of a constant flow. This can be used for service
purposes.

Cable length-time of flight, menu 7.1.2.4


The transmitter is always installed in a remote position. Therefore it is necessary to enter the length
of the sensor cable in order to compensate for the time delay occurring in the cables.
The cable length is the total length of the signal cable in one sound track. The measuring unit
of the cable length is meters. The tolerance is ±0.5 m.

Pipe geometry, menu 7.1.3


This value represent the average inside diameter of the actual pipe.
Data to be entered from “SENSOR GEOMETRY MEASURING REPORT”

Roughness, menu 7.1.3.2


Roughness is the value for the inner pipe surface.
The range of this value is defined to 0.01 mm to 10.0 mm because standard Siemens sensors
have a roughness of approximately 0.4 mm.

Smooth plastic pipe 0.1 mm


Polished stainless steel pipe 0.1 mm
Standard carbon steel pipe 0.4 mm
Rusty carbon steel pipe 1...2 mm
Concrete pipe 2...5 mm

10.8 Procedure for entering data into the SITRANS FUS060 transmitter:

The FUS060 transmitter default set up enables the transmitter to be used for SONOKIT
applications.
The factory settings are according to ordered pipe dimension.

The following procedure describes the necessary parameters/data to be entered and the sequence
of entering them in order to configure the transmitter correctly for a given pipe applications:
The pipe data are taken from the “SONOKIT” measurement report.

Measurement:
1. Enter the sensor diameter (menu 7.1.3.1).
2. Choose appropriate engineering unit for flow (menu 3.1.1).
3. Enter maximum volume flow (menu 3.1.2).
4. Choose “AUTO” for calibration choice (menu 7.1.1).
5. Enter the viscosity for the media, otherwise the default value (0.01 cm2/s for water 20 °C) will
be used (menu 7.1.2.1).
6. Enter roughness of the inner surface of the sensor pipe, otherwise the default value (0.4 mm)
will be used (menu 7.1.3.2) (see also chapter 8.7).
7. Enter the measured transducer distance for each track (menu 7.1.4.1.1 (track 1) and menu
7.1.4.2.1 (track 2)).
8. Enter the measured angle for each track (menu 7.1.4.1.2, (track 1) and menu 7.1.4.2.2 (track
2)).
9. Enter the measured displacement for each track (menu 7.1.4.1.3, (track 1) and menu 7.1.4.2.3
(track 2)).
10. Check the number of tracks (menu 7.2). They are pre-set from the factory according to ordered
SONOKIT).
11. Go to the service menu and check that the control values for amplitude (menu 6.5.2.X) have
a value within the interval 90 – 110.
12. Go to the service menu and check that the control values for the error counters (menu 6.5.4.X)
are 0.
13. Go to the service menu and check that the control values for time-of-flight (menu 6.5.5.X) has
a stable value that may vary in the nanosecond range (for example ±10ns).
14. Make sure that 0 flow conditions are applied and thereafter the 0 point calibration procedure
is activated by use of menu 6.6.3 (“Zero trim”).
15. The calculation of the flow can be corrected by use of the customer correction factor (menu
7.1.2.2) which is a scaling factor.

Based on the entered data the transmitter is capable of measuring and calculating the actual flow.
The accuracy of the system at this stage is dependent on the entered accuracy of the geometry
data.

Eliminating process errors


Only two general groups of errors are shown in the display. “Process error” and “device error”.
Device errors describe hardware errors. Two main groups of errors are:

Measuring path disturbed The medium in the measuring line is not permeable to sound,
this applies both when the pipe is filled with gas or is empty.
The measured value on the display is set to zero.
Cable is broken detached.

Flow measurement unreliable The measured values have a very high dispersion so that
errors in the measuring evaluation or disturbances in the flow
due to cavitation, twist or inhomogenity such as bubbles or
foreign bodies.
Measured values are displayed but an “F” flashes in the right
hand corner of the display.

Maintenance and repair 12

The SITRANS F ultrasonic flowmeter is maintenance-free.

The device fuse (slow blow 1.6 A/250 VH (switch off capacity 1500 A); license: UR, CSA, VDE)
is located on the power supply board.

The following messages are output in the event of a device error or measuring error:
– The output signal selected in menu item 3.4.3 is output at the analog output.
– A message is output at digital output 1 and 2 when the outputs are configured for the alarm
message.
– The message “D” appears in the display within the display menu for device errors or the
message “F” for measuring errors.

If you send in the ultrasonic flowmeter to Siemens for repairs, please enclose a note bearing the
following information.

– Description of the measuring job


– Error description
– Chemical and physical properties of the medium

Warning
All residue of the medium must be removed before sending in the device. This is particularly
necessary when the medium poses a health risk such as caustic, toxic, carcinogenic, radioactive
etc.
