Environmental Compliance
RoHS
The PanaFlow™ LC fully complies with RoHS regulations (Directive 2011/65/EU).
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
BHGE is an active participant in Europe’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) take-back
initiative (Directive 2012/19/EU).
This equipment has required the extraction and use of natural resources for its production. It may contain
hazardous substances that could impact health and the environment.
In order to avoid the dissemination of those substances in our environment and to diminish the pressure on
the natural resources, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-back systems. Those systems will reuse
or recycle most of the materials of your end life equipment in a sound way.
The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol invites you to use those systems.
If you need more information on the collection, reuse and recycling systems, please contact your local or
regional waste administration.

1.1 System Description
The PanaFlow™ LC flowmeter is a one, two, or three channel ultrasonic transit time flowmeter that utilizes
clamp-on transducers on external pipe surfaces to allow for uninterrupted flow operation during flow
measurement. The PanaFlow™ LC flowmeter has up to 3 independent channels. These channels are capable
of measuring the flow rate of acoustically conductive single-phase liquid, which may have limited amount of
second phase. With the 3 channels, the user will have the capability to average them with equal weights, or
with different weights that will better suit the flow profile. The meter is designed for pipe sizes ranging from
½ in. (15 mm) to 300 in. (7600 mm) with wall thickness up to 4 in. (102 mm) for flow velocities up to 80 ft/s
(25 m/s). For a full list of its capabilities, see Appendix A. This manual will serve as a guide to install the
clamping fixture and transducers necessary for accurate flow readings, programming the meter for specific
customer needs, error codes and troubleshooting walk through, and maintenance and service procedures.

1.2 Theory of Operation
The PanaFlow™ LC uses a procedure called Transit-Time Flow Measurement. In this method, the flowmeter
transmits ultrasonic pulses through a moving liquid. The pulses that travel in the same direction as the fluid
flow (downstream) travel slightly faster than the pulses that travel against the fluid flow (upstream). The
difference in transit times is then used to calculate flow velocity.

2.1 Installation Guidelines
This section provides general information with respect to the mechanical and electrical installation, and
should be thoroughly reviewed before the system is installed. To ensure safe and reliable operation of the
PanaFlow™ LC, the system must be installed in accordance with the established guidelines. Those
guidelines, explained in detail in this chapter, include the following topics:
•Unpacking the PanaFlow LC System
•Site Considerations
•Making Electrical Connections
WARNING! The PanaFlow™ LC flow meter can measure the flow rate of many fluids, some
potentially hazardous. The importance of proper safety practices cannot be overemphasized.
WARNING! Be sure to follow all applicable local safety codes and regulations for installing
electrical equipment and working with hazardous fluids or flow conditions. Consult company
safety personnel or local safety authorities to verify the safety of any procedure or practice.
Attention European Customers! To meet CE Mark requirements, all cables must be installed as
described in Appendix D, CE Mark Compliance.

2.2 Unpacking the PanaFlow LC System
Before removing the PanaFlow™ LC from its box, please inspect both the box and the instrument carefully.
Each instrument manufactured by BHGE is warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship.
Before discarding any of the packing materials, account for all components and documentation listed on the
packing slip. The discarding of an important item along with the packing materials is all too common. If
anything is missing or damaged, contact BHGE Customer Care immediately for assistance.
The PanaFlow LC flowmeter shall consist of one set of XMT1000 Electronics, a pair of transducer cables, a
pair of clamp on transducers and a clamping fixture to mount the transducers to a pipe.
Due to a variety of configurations your kit may include additional cables, clamping fixtures, transducers and
junction boxes.
Please refer to your packing slip and ordered parts string and lists for your specific components.
The PanaFlow™ LC is supplied with both a serial number label and a certification label for identification of
the instrument (see Figure 3 below and Figure 4 on page 5).

2.3 Site Considerations
Proper installation of the PanaFlow™ LC is important to achieve optimum performance from the system. The
following installation recommendations provide general guidelines of how this system should be installed. If
the following recommendations cannot be met, please consult the factory for a more detailed review of the
application to see what performance may be achievable. Following these recommendations may not be the
solution for all, since every installation is different.
2.4 Clamping Fixtures and Transducer Installations
Installation of clamp-on transducers for transit-time measurements consists of mounting the clamping
fixture to the pipe and then mounting the transducers into the clamping fixture. When installing
transducers in clamp-on applications, you can use one of the following methods to hold the transducer
against the pipe wall:
•Strap Clamping Fixture (SCF)
•Universal Clamping Fixture (UCF)
•General Clamping Fixture (GCF, permanent installation)
•Magnetic Clamping Fixture (MCF)
•Small Clamping Fixtures - 6" (150 mm) or 12" (300 mm) long, with Velcro straps (SPCF)
This manual covers the installation for the Strap Clamping Fixture (SCF), while the other fixtures can be
found in the Appendix B. Before beginning the transducer installation, you must determine the number of
traverses for your configuration.
Note: The accuracy and performance of the flowmeter depends on the location, spacing, and alignment of the
transducers. This manual provides general instructions for locating and installing most transducer
types. However, the specific spacing of your transducers is unique to your installation.
