Description
The Series 4500 Compu-SonicTM is a tran-
sit-time ultrasonic flowmeter designed for
use in full pipe liquid flow applications. It
uses the chordal velocity measurement prin-
ciple which provides accurate and reliable
flow information. The microprocessor based
meter is supplied with a 24 character, 2 line
alpha-numeric LCD display for rate of flow
and totalized flow information. A front panel
keypad activates a scroll through menu for
functions such as programming, operational
status, rescaling and calibration of the 4-20
mA output signal.
The meter can be supplied for measuring
flow rates in two inch and larger pipes.
Various styles of sensors are available for
use on any type of pipe material.
Standard output signals are a 4-20 mA cur-
rent linear to flow, four programmable relays
and a serial communications port. The
relays can be programmed for High and Low
Alarms, Remote Totalizer, Meter Faults, Flow
Direction and Contact Integrator.
The serial communications port allows for
programming the flowmeter to a specific
application or direct connection to a comput-
er system. The flowmeter supports either
RS232 or RS485. The communications uti-
lizes the ModbusTM protocol.
Applications
The Series 4500 can be applied to water,
wastewater and industrial process fluids.
Typical applications:
Water: Influent / effluent of WTP, distribution
monitoring, billing, water wells.
Wastewater: Lift stations, WWTP influent /
effluent, clarifier effluents, clarifier under-
flows, RAS, WAS.
Industrial process: In plant monitoring, trans-
portation lines, HVAC.
Irrigation: Turnouts, aqueduct flows.
Piping Requirements
The Series 4500 flowmeters may be mount-
ed on horizontal or vertical piping runs. A
well-developed velocity profile is needed.
General practice requires the pipe to be full
and the upstream piping run to be sufficient
to assure predictable fluid velocity distribu-
tion.
Electronics Enclosure
The Series 4500 electronics are housed in a
NEMA 4X foam molded polycarbonate enclo-
sure suited for wall mounting. The inside of
the enclosure has a Cobaloy coating for RFI
protection. The enclosure dimensions are
7.75" wide, 5.75" high and 4.00" deep.
Velocity Sensors
The Series 4500 flowmeters utilize acoustic
signals transmitted from pipe mounted sen-
sors to accurately measure fluid velocities.
Because of the diverse application in fluid
monitoring, as well as different pipe materials
available, several versions of the acoustic
velocity sensor are available. All sensors are
fully potted and sealed to ensure long-term
durability even when submerged under
water.

Externally Mounted Strap-on Sensors
The externally mounted non-wetted sensor is designed to
transmit ultrasonic energy pulses through the pipe wall.
These sensors can be used on pipes with homogenous
materials such as steels, ductile iron and plastic. They
can be used on pipe sizes from 2 inches and larger. The
mounting hardware is constructed of 304 stainless steel.
The strap-on sensors can be mounted in one of two dif-
ferent configurations. The '%/-shot" arrangement places
both sensors on the same side of the conduit sending
acoustic transmission through the pipe, reflecting off the
inside wall back to the second sensor. This configuration
is normally recommended for smaller line sizes and car-
bon steel or PVC pipes.
The "through the pipe configuration" (as shown) mounts
the sensors 180 degrees apart on the outside of the pipe.
STRAP-ON SENSORS
"HOT-SHOT" SENSOR
Fabricated Spool Sensors
Fabricated spool sections are available with a choice of
end connections and material of construction. The sen-
sors used with the spool are mounted in windows. These
windows are constructed of Ultem® plastic and attached to
the spool which allows the sensor to be installed or
removed without dewatering or process shutdown. The
windows have a maximum pressure rating of 250 psi.
Instream Velocity Sensors
The instream velocity sensors are designed for use in
applications where the outside of the pipe is not accessi-
ble, or the pipe size allows easy entrance. The sensors
can be mounted directly to the inside wall. These sensors
are for use on pipes 24 inches and larger. A second
mounting technique pre-installs the sensors on a mount-
ing band that can be inserted into the pipe. The hoop is
manufactured out of stainless steel,
INSTREAM SENSORS
Thru-wall Wetted Velocity Sensors
The thru-wall wetted velocity sensors are designed for
penetration through the pipe wall. These are used where
the ultrasonic signal cannot penetrate the pipe wall
because of the pipe material or internal condition of the
pipe. These can be used on pipes 6 inches and larger.
The Hot-Shot style of sensor is normally used in these
applications. A valve assembly is recommended with tap-
ping saddles or a nipple welded to the pipe. This allows
insertion and withdrawal of the sensor without dewatering
the pipe. Other thru-wall sensor styles are available with-
out valve assemblies.
SPOOL PIECE
All of the sensor styles, except for the windowed sensors,
can be located up to 1000 feet from the electronics. The
windowed sensors can be located up to 250 feet.
All of the sensor styles have been Factory Mutual
approved for use in Class I Division I Groups A, B, C and
D except for acetic atmospheres. The electronics must be
located in a safe area and the sensors installed in accor-
dance with FM approved methods to assure the rating.
