1 Maintenance
1.1 Precautions for meter maintenance
This section includes discussion of the maintenance of Rosemount 3410 Series Ultrasonic
Meters.
For reference, you may download the MeterLink™ Quick Start Guide.
WARNING
Crushing hazard
Do not remove flange stabilizers.
Attempting to do so could allow the meter to roll, resulting in serious injury or equipment
damage.
A. Flange stabilizers
WARNING
Hearing damage
Wear proper hearing protection before approaching a metering system that is generating
a large amount of audible noise. Obey all facility safety rules.
Failure to comply could result in temporary or permanent hearing loss.
CAUTION
Surface temperature hazard
The meter body and piping may be extremely hot or cold.
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment when coming in contact with the meter.
Failure to comply may result in injury.

CAUTION
Transportation hazard
When moving the meter, do not insert the forks of a forklift into the bore.
Inserting the forks may cause the meter to become unstable, resulting in injury or damage
to the bore and sealing face.
CAUTION
Tripping hazard
Clear all obstacles or obstructions from the work area when transporting, installing, or
removing the meter.
Failure to clear the work area may cause injury to personnel.
CAUTION
Escaping fluids hazard
The purchaser of the meter is responsible for the selection of Rosemount components/
seals and materials compatible with the chemical properties of the measurement fluid.
Failure to select suitable meter components/seals may cause escaping fluids, resulting in
injury or equipment damage.
1.2 Field hydrostatic pressure testing procedures
CAUTION
Leakage or pressure containing parts failure
Use precautions to eliminate hazards to personnel in the event of leakage or failure of the
gas ultrasonic meter pressure containing parts or failure of the test equipment and to
prevent over-pressurization during the test procedure.
Failure to comply may result in injury to personnel or cause damage to the equipment.
1.2.1 T-Slot transducer assembly and mount
Procedure
1. Slowly vent all line pressure on the Rosemount 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Meter to
atmosphere.
2. Disconnect transducer cable from the transducer holder.
3. Loosen the T-Slot transducer assembly with a 1¼-in. (32 mm) wrench or socket.
Carefully remove the T-Slot transducer assembly.
4. Place a label on the transducer assembly to marks its location.
Port locations are marked on the transducer cable as well as on cast meter
housings.
5. Apply a small amount of nickel antiseize compound (PN 3-9960-134) to the threads
of the Hydrotest plug from Hydrotest kit and install it into the mount. Required kit
part numbers are listed below.

6. Repeat Step3 through Step5 for the other transducer(s) being careful to note the
location of each transducer in the meter assembly.
7. Run the field hydrostatic test.
8. Reverse the steps above to reinstall the transducers into their appropriate ports.
Before reinstalling the transducer assemblies, ensure the transducer ports, mounts,
and transducer holders are clean and free of debris. Apply a small amount of nickel
antiseize compound to the outer threads of the transducer holders before installing
them into the mounts.
1.2.2 T-200 transducer assembly
The T-200 transducer assembly has full-metal structure and can remain in place during
field hydrostatic pressure test.
Procedure
1. Leave T-200 transducers installed on the Rosemount 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic
Meter while the line is pressurized.
2. Run the field hydrostatic test.
1.3 Routine maintenance
Routine maintenance operations requires adherence to all applicable regulations and laws
and safety training for personnel to perform the maintenance operations. Review your
organization's best practices procedures before performing routine maintenance.
1.3.1 Maintenance logs and reports
To monitor the performance health of the meter, and ensure it is operating within
acceptable specifications, it is recommended to perform routine diagnostics.
Collecting a maintenance log gives you a snapshot of the current health of the meter, and
you can compare the inspection reports from previously saved logs. Go to Logs/Reports
→ Maintenance Logs and Reports. MeterLink™ displays the Maintenance Logs and Reports
dialog box. Choose the time duration, log format, and collection rate for the output file and
click Start. You can open the file immediately after it is generated or view it at a later time.
It is recommended that a maintenance log be collected after an upset in the system.
In establishing a baseline to be used for the trending of the meter diagnostics, it is very
helpful if a set of log files is collected immediately after the meter has been installed in
the field. Preferably, collect the log files at several velocities within the operating range of
the meter. This helps establish that the flow profile is relatively constant throughout the
meters operating range (except velocities below 3 ft./sec where the profile may vary).

Maintenance log collection
Figure 1-1: Maintenance log collection parameters
Trend maintenance log collection
Merging the results of two or more maintenance logs into a single file allows you to build a
historical database of the meter's performance.
Trending the logs indicates changes from the original installation of the meter or over
time. Looking at a single inspection report, that is either collected monthly or quarterly,
can give you an indication of the meter's health.

Figure 1-2: Trend log collection
This is important, since many diagnostics change slowly overtime. Trending the
maintenance logs helps identify these changes and makes problems much more obvious
than merely viewing a single inspection report. The Trending feature is integral to
MeterLink™, which allows all important parameters to be trended. MeterLink supports
trending files in a Microsoft® Excel ® workbook from multiple Rosemount 3410 Series meter
maintenance logs. Some parameters, like gain, signal level, and noise level, may show a
shift over time which can be useful in detecting changes in the meter and the installation.
Maintenance logs or Trend files to be trended must all have matching column headings.
This means the logs must be in the same units (US customary or metric), must have the
same pressure type (gauge or absolute), and must have the same time base (1/second,
1/minute, 1/hour, 1/day). If not, an error message will be displayed stating the column
headings do not match, and the file will not be added to the workbook to trend list.
Archive log collection
Archive logs may be collected, and the options include:
Daily log Generated every 24 hours on the contract hour
Hourly log Generated every hour at the top of the hour
Event log Collects the alarm and event log records
Figure 1-3: Archive log collection parameters
The logs may be collected in a single file, or you can choose to collect one type of log. Each
of the meter archive logs includes the Meter Configuration file.

1.3.2 Pipe cleaning maintenance
WARNING
BURST HAZARD
Before pipeline cleaning and maintenance ("pigging operations"), remove straightening
vanes or flow conditioners.
Failure to comply may cause excessive pressure in the meter system, resulting in death,
serious injury or equipment damage.
Figure 1-4: 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter with flow conditioner for uni-
directional flow
A. Flow Conditoner: Rosemount Profiler, CPA 50E or CPA 55E

directional flow
A. Flow Conditioner: Rosemount Profiler, CPA 50E or CPA 55E
B. Flow Conditioner: Rosemount Profiler, CPA 50E or CPA 55E
Straightening vanes or flow profilers must be removed during pipeline cleaning
maintenance operations (“pigging operation”). If the meter run is pigged with a flow
conditioner in line, pressure may build up and cause the pipes and flanges to burst
and severely injure personnel. The excessive pressure may damage the meter or
the transducer ports may collect debris which may impede data acquisition and flow
measurement.
