1 AquaTrans AT600 Panametrics Clamp-on Ultrasonic Liquid Flow Meter Imagination at work. Version 3 (12/1/14)

2 I need a meter that is reliable and user friendly. 2

3 Introducing the AquaTrans AT600. Simplicity meets reliability. The new clamp-on ultrasonic meter designed to measure liquid flow in industrial environments

4 A totally new clamp-on system THE AT600 INCLUDES AT600 electronics 1 1 Transducer cables Transducers/fixture AT6 XDR with fixture (2 MHz) C-RS XDR with CF-ES fixture (0.5 MHz) 3 AT600 Installation 4

5 Clamp-on transit time. Up c P L Velocity Variables used in transit time Dn V = Fluid Velocity c T up T d n P = Fluid soundspeed = Transit time up = Transit time down = Acoustic path length V = P 2L 2 t t up dn - t t dn up L = Axial projected path length 5 = Path Angle

6 Advantages of an ultrasonic meter No drifting, no periodic calibration required No pressure drop No restriction in the pipe No filters or strainers No loss of process control, optimization of assets and efficiency, no downtime or expense from calibration No wasted energy from running a pump or purchase of a larger size pump Contamination will not affect meter s measurement (drifting) or any damage to meter No maintenance cost Bi-directional measurement No moving parts Flow measurement independent of temperature, pressure, viscosity and conductivity No additional meters required No loss of process control, optimization of assets and efficiency, no downtime or expense from calibration No impact to accuracy, which affects process control

7 Advantages of a clamp-on meter Install on new or existing pipes Save time and money not cutting into pipe, install in difficult locations, install anytime Install on outside of pipe No welding, no extra parts Save time and money not cutting into pipe, no process shutdown, no process contamination Save time and money No leakage No contamination No required maintenance Low cost of ownership

8 Improves on its predecessor A continued legacy of reliability MORE RELIABLE Accuracy for a clamp-on meter BETTER ACCURACY Great value for ultrasonic flow measurement BEST VALUE Simple installation, intuitive set-up CONFIDENCE IN MEASUREMENT 8

9 Designed to be better Applying GE s industrial design Epoxy-coated aluminum (NEMA 4X/IP67) Green or red light health indication Six-button keypad Multiple languages Two-inch pipe or wall mount Friction hinge design Latch with lock opening for local security Five watts maximum power consumption Temperature range: 4 to 131 F (-20 to 55 C) 4-20 ma with two discrete outputs Modbus/RS485 and HART options Vitality software-capable 9

10 Small yet powerful New AT6 transducer Small and compact, about 33 mm (1.3 in) 2 MHz operating frequency IP68 rating with cable standard Solid couplant, standard Temperature range of -40 to 302 F (-40 to 150 C) Current transducer option C-RS with AT868 fixture 0.5 & 1 MHz operating frequency Familiar set-up 10

11 Uncomplicated, quick installation Easy-to-use fixture Quick-tighten stainless strapping Pre-installed transducers Easy-to-read spacing markings Simple adjustment and alignment Anodized aluminum Lightweight 11

12 A simple four-step process Install in minutes STEP 1 STEP 2 Mount and wire Program meter 3 MINUTES* 5 MINUTES* STEP 3 STEP 4 Install transducers and fixture 5 MINUTES* Validate measurements 2 MINUTES* * Average estimated time 12

13 Specifications Item Fluids Measurement Channels/paths Pipe sizes Pipe materials Details Liquids Transit time One 2 to 24 in (50 to 600 mm) standard (Other sizes available upon request.) All metals and most plastics Accuracy Calibration +/- 1% of reading +/- 0.5% in field calibration Final installation assumes a fully developed flow profile (typically 10 diameters upstream and 5 diameters downstream of straight pipe run) and single phase fluids. Applications with piping arrangements that induce swirl (e.g., two out-ofplane elbows) may require additional straight run or flow conditioning. Standard with each meter Repeatability +/- 0.2% Range Certification -40 to 40 ft/s (-12.2 to 12.2 m/s) CE, UL, CSA Mcert (in process) 13
