Endress+Hauser 5
1 Safety instructions
1.1 Designated use
The measuring device described in these Operating Instructions is to be used only for measuring the
flow rate of liquids in closed pipes.
Examples:
• Acids, alkalis, paints, oils
• Liquid gas
• Ultrapure water with low conductivity, water, wastewater
As well as measuring the volume flow, the sound velocity of the fluid is also always measured.
Different fluids can be distinguished or the fluid quality can be monitored.
The operational safety of the measuring devices cannot be guaranteed if the system is used
incorrectly or used for purposes other than those intended. The manufacturer accepts no liability for
damages being produced from this.
1.2 Installation, commissioning and operation
Note the following points:
• Installation, connection to the electricity supply, commissioning and maintenance of the device
must be carried out by trained, qualified specialists authorized to perform such work by the
facility's owner-operator.
The specialist must have read and understood these Operating Instructions and must follow the
instructions they contain.
• The device must be operated by persons authorized and trained by the facility's owner-operator.
Strict compliance with the instructions in these Operating Instructions is mandatory.
• Endress+Hauser is willing to assist in clarifying the chemical resistance properties of parts wetted
by special fluids, including fluids used for cleaning.
However, small changes in temperature, concentration or the degree of contamination in the
process can result in changes to the corrosion resistance properties. Therefore, Endress+Hauser
cannot guarantee or accept liability for the corrosion resistance properties of wetted materials in
a specific application.
The user is responsible for choosing suitable wetted materials in the process.
• If carrying out welding work on the piping, the welding unit may not be grounded by means of
the measuring device.
• The installer must ensure that the measuring system is correctly wired in accordance with the
wiring diagrams. The transmitter must be grounded, except in cases where special protective
measures have been taken (e.g. galvanically isolated power supply SELV or PELV).
• Invariably, local regulations governing the opening and repair of electrical devices apply.
1.3 Operational safety
Note the following points:
• Measuring systems for use in hazardous environments are accompanied by separate
"Ex documentation", which is an integral part of these Operating Instructions. Strict compliance
with the installation instructions and ratings as stated in this supplementary documentation is
mandatory. The symbol on the front of this supplementary Ex documentation indicates the
approval and inspection authority (e.g. 0Europe, 2USA, 1Canada).
• The measuring system complies with the general safety requirements in accordance with
EN 61010-1, the EMC requirements of IEC/EN 61326, and NAMUR Recommendation NE 21
and NE 43.
• The manufacturer reserves the right to modify technical data without prior notice. Your
Endress+Hauser distributor will supply you with current information and updates to this
Operating Instructions.

1.4 Return
The following procedures must be carried out before a flowmeter requiring repair or calibration, for
example, is returned to Endress+Hauser:
• Always enclose a duly completed "Declaration of Contamination" form. Only then can
Endress+Hauser transport, examine and repair a returned device.
!Note!
You will find a preprinted "Declaration of Contamination" form at the back of this manual.
• Enclose special handling instructions if necessary, for example a safety data sheet as per
Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 REACH.
• Remove all residues. Pay special attention to the grooves for seals and crevices which could
contain residues. This is particularly important if the substance is hazardous to health,
e.g. flammable, toxic, caustic, carcinogenic, etc.
#Warning!
• Do not return a measuring device if you are not absolutely certain that all traces of hazardous
substances have been removed, e.g. substances which have penetrated crevices or diffused
through plastic.
• Costs incurred for waste disposal or injury (burns, etc.) due to inadequate cleaning will be charged
to the owner-operator.
1.5 Notes on safety conventions and icons
The devices can, however, be a source of danger if used incorrectly or for anything other than the
designated use. Consequently, always pay particular attention to the safety instructions indicated in
these Operating Instructions by the following icons:
The devices are designed to meet state-of-the-art safety requirements, have been tested, and left the

3.1 Incoming acceptance, transport and storage
3.1.1 Incoming acceptance
On receipt of the goods, check the following points:
• Check the packaging and the contents for damage.
• Check the shipment, make sure nothing is missing and that the scope of supply matches your
order.
3.1.2 Transport
The devices must be transported in the container supplied when transporting them to the measuring
point.
3.1.3 Storage
• Pack the measuring device in such a way as to protect it reliably against impact for storage (and
transportation). The original packaging provides optimum protection.
• The storage temperature corresponds to the ambient temperature range of the transmitter, the
sensors and the corresponding sensor cables (ä120).
• The measuring device must be protected against direct sunlight during storage in order to avoid
unacceptably high surface temperatures.
3.2 Installation conditions
3.2.1 Dimensions
The dimensions and lengths of the sensor and transmitter are provided in the separate "Technical
Information" document on the device in question. This can be downloaded as a PDF file from
www.endress.com.
A list of the "Technical Information" documents available is provided on ä127
3.2.2 Mounting location
Correct flow measurement is possible only if a pipe is full. Entrained air or gas bubbles forming in
the pipe can result in an increase in measuring errors.
Avoid the following locations in the pipe installation:
• Highest point of a pipeline. Risk of air accumulating.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a vertical pipeline.

3.2.3 Orientation
Vertical orientation
We recommend the sensor be mounted where there is upward direction of flow. With this
orientation, entrained solids will sink down and gases will rise away from the sensor when the fluid
is stagnant.
Horizontal orientation
We recommend the sensors be mounted within an angle of ±60° to the horizontal (area shaded gray
in the graphic). With this orientation, flow measurement is less affected by any gas or air
accumulation in the upper area of the pipe or by buildup at the bottom of the pipe.

B Recommended installation range with horizontal orientation
C Recommended installation range max. 120°
3.2.4 Inlet and outlet run
If possible, install the sensor well clear of assemblies such as valves, T-pieces, elbows, etc.
Compliance with the following inlet and outlet runs is required in order to ensure measuring
accuracy.

3.2.5 Sensor selection and arrangement
The sensors can be arranged in two ways:
• Mounting arrangement for measurement via one traverse: the sensors are located on opposite
sides of the pipe.
• Mounting arrangement for measurement via two traverses: the sensors are located on the same
side of the pipe.
A0001108
Fig. 7: Sensor mounting arrangement
A Mounting arrangement for measurement via one traverse
B Mounting arrangement for measurement via two traverses
The number of traverses required depends on the sensor type, the nominal diameter and the
thickness of the pipe wall. We recommend the following types of mounting:
BA
Sensor Type Nominal Diameter Sensor Frequency Sensor ID Type of Mounting 1)
Prosonic Flow P
DN 15 to 65 (½ to 2½") 6 MHz P-CL-6F* 2 traverses 5)

W-CL-05F* 1 traverse 3)
1) The installation of clamp-on sensors is principally recommended in the 2 traverse type installation. This type of
installation allows the easiest and most comfortable type of mounting and means that a system can also be mounted
even if the pipe can only be accessed from one side. However, in certain applications a 1 traverse installation may be
preferred. These include:
• Certain plastic pipes with wall thickness > 4 mm (0.16")
• Pipes made of composite materials such as GRP
• Lined pipes
• Applications with fluids with high acoustic damping
2) If the pipe nominal diameter is small (DN 65 / 2½" and smaller), the sensor spacing with Prosonic Flow W can be too
small for two traverse installation. In this case, the 1 traverse type of installation must be used.
3) 0.5 MHz sensors are also recommended for applications with composite material pipes such as GRP and may be
recommended for certain lined pipes, pipes with wall thickness > 10 mm (0.4"), or applications with media with high
acoustic damping. In addition, for these applications we principally recommend mounting the W sensors in
a 1 traverse configuration.
4) Insertion W sensors are mounted in a 1 traverse configuration ä45.
5) 6 MHz sensors for applications where flow velocity10m/s (32.8Hz/s)

3.3 Two-channel operation
The transmitter is able to operate two independent measuring channels (measuring channel 1 and
measuring channel 2). A pair of sensors is connected per measuring channel. Both measuring
channels operate independently of one another and are supported by the transmitter to an equal
extent.
Two-channel operation can be used for the following measurements:
• Two-channel measurement = flow measurement at two separate measuring points
• Two-path measurement = redundant flow measurement at one measuring point
3.3.1 Two-channel measurement
The flow is measured at two separate measuring points in the case of two-channel measurement.
The measured values of the two measuring channels can be processed and displayed differently.
The following measured values can be output for two-channel measurement:
• Individual measured values per measuring channel (output independently of one another)
• The difference between the two measured values
• The sum of the two measured values
The two measuring channels can be configured individually. This makes it possible to independently
configure and select the display, outputs, sensor type and type of installation.

3.3.2 Two-path measurement
The flow is measured redundantly at one measuring point in the case of two-path measurement.
The measured values of the two measuring channels can be processed and displayed differently. The
following measured values can be output for two-path measurement:
• Individual measured values per measuring channel (output independently of one another)
• The average of the two measured values.
The "Averaging" function generally provides you with a more stable measured value.
The function is thus suitable for measurements under conditions that are not ideal (e.g. short inlet
runs).
The two measuring channels can be configured individually. This makes it possible to independently
configure and select the display, outputs, sensor type and type of installation.
It is generally not necessary to individually configure the two measuring channels in the case of
two-path measurement. However, in certain situations individual channel configuration can be
used to balance out application-specific asymmetries.

3.4 Preparatory steps prior to installation
Depending on the conditions specific to the measuring point (e.g. clamp-on, number of traverses,
fluid, etc.), a number of preparatory steps have to be taken before actually installing the sensors:
1. Determination of the values for the necessary installation distances based on the conditions
specific to the measuring point. A number of methods are available for determining the values:
– Local operation of the device
– FieldCare (operating program), connect a notebook to the transmitter
– Applicator (software), online on the Endress+Hauser Internet site
2. Mechanical preparation of the clamp-on retainers for the sensors:
– Premount the strapping bands (DN 50 to 200 / 2 to 8") or (DN 250 to 4000 / 10 to 160")
– Fix the welded bolts
3.5 Determining the necessary installation distances
The installation distances that have to be maintained depend on:
• The type of sensor: P or W (DN 50 to 4000 / 2 to 160"), P or W (DN 15 to 65 / ½ to 2½")
• Type of mounting:
– Clamp-on with strapping band or welded bolt
– Insertion version, installation in the pipe
• Number of traverses or single-path/dual-path version
