It is designed to measure the fluid velocity of a liquid inside a closed conduit. The transducers are a noncontacting, clamp-on type, which provide benefits of non-fouling operation and easy installation. The DSP digital technology (Digital Signal Processing) ensure a low sensibility of the instrument against potential transient factors. applied solutions for the application SGM-100F - Working principle 0. Working principle The SGM-100F utilizes two transducers which work as ultrasonic transmitters and receivers. They are clamped on the outside of a closed pipe at a specific distance from each other. They can be mounted in V position (the sound crosses the pipe twice), in W position (the sound crosses the pipe 4 times) or in Z position (mounted on opposite sides of the pipe - the sound crosses the pipe once). The selection of the mounting position depends on pipe and on liquid characteristics. The SGM-100F operates by alternately transmitting and receiving a frequency modulated burst of sound energy between the two transducers and measuring the transit time that takes the sound to travel between them. The difference in measured transit time is directly and exactly related to the velocity of the liquid inside the pipe (fig.1).

Please check power supply voltage before connecting the unit. Once the instrument is switched on, it will run a self diagnostic program. If there’s any anomaly the corresponding error message will be displayed. Generally, there should be no display of error messages, and the flow meter will go to the most commonly used Menu Window Number 01 (short for M01) to display the Velocity, Flow Rate, Positive Totalizer, Signal Strength and Signal Quality, based on the pipe parameters configured last time by the user or by the initial program. The operation on the keypad does not interfer with the measurement because there’s the simultaneous processing technology. When power is on, the user can see on menu window M01 that it is adjusting the gain of the amplifier. Progress S1, S2, S3 and S4 will be displayed on the left upper corner of the display and after the adjustment the flowmeter will go into the normal measurement mode, with “R” displayed on the left upper corner. If the instrument is running for the first time or it has been installed in a new position, the user needs to enter new pipe parameters. Any parameter will be recorded permanently into the NVRAM of the SGM-100F, until new modification. 2.3 Keypad The SGM-100F keypad has 16 keys.

Page 6 of 24 SGM-100F - Installation 3 3.1 Installation Measuring location The first step of the installation process is the selection of an optimum place in order to obtain a more accurate measurement. For this reason it is important to have a basic knowledge of the piping and of its plumbimg system. An optimum place would be defined as a straight pipe length full of liquid, horizontally or vertically positioned. Selection principles for an optimum installation: (1) Install the transducers on the longer length of the pipe and make sure that the pipe is completely full of liquid. (2) Make sure that the temperature on the location does not exceed the temperature range of the transducers. In general the closer to the room temperature the better. (3) Take the pipe fouling into consideration. Select a straight length of a relatively newer pipe. If the condition is not satisfying, consider the fouling thickness as part of the liner for a better result. (4) Remember that gas fase in the liquids is in the upper part of the pipe. Consequently on horizontal pipe installations avoid to put the trasducers in the upper part. 3.2. Transducers installation The SGM-100F transducers are made of piezoelectric crystals, both for transmitting and receiving the ultrasonic signals through the wall of the liquid piping system. The measurement is realized by measuring the traveling time difference of the ultrasonic signals. Since the difference is very small, the spacing and the alignment of the transducers are important factors for the accuracy of the measurement and the performance of the measuring system. Page 7 of 24 SGM-100F - Installation How to proceed with the installation: (1) Locate an optimum position on the pipe, which has to be in good condition (no rust) (2) Clean and dust the pipe surface. (3) Apply adeguate coupler on the spot where the transducers have to be installed and leave no gap between the pipe surface and the transducers. To avoid gas bubbles (gas fase) inside the upper part of the pipe, the transducers should be installed horizontally by the side of the pipe. 3.2.1 Transducers spacing The spacing value shown in menu M25 refers to inner distance between the two transducers. The actual trasducers spacing should be as close as possible to the spacing value. (see figures on next page). 3.2.2 V method installation It is the most common used method for pipe with diameters ranging from 20 to 300 millimeters. Page 8 of 24 SGM-100F - Installation 3.2.3 Z method installation It is commonly used when the pipe diameter is between 300 and 500 millimeters. 3.2.4 W method installation It is usually used on little pipes with a diameter from 10 to 100 millimiters. Page 9 of 24 SGM-100F - Installation 3.2.6 Insert sensor installation Steps for a correct installation: 1- If the pipe is placed inside the wall, check that there’s sufficient space for the mounting of the insertion sensor (min. distance between the wall and the pipe = 540mm) 2- Procure a drilling tool 3- Enter pipe parameter (in menu M23 choose option 5. “insertion B sensor” - in menu M24 choose 1. “Z method” - in menu M25 input installation distance) 4- Choose the right position and calculate the distance 5- Install the ball valve Page 10 of 24 SGM-100F - Installation 6- Drill the pipe 1 sensor 5 tight screw 2 bottom of ball valve 6 connection 3 ball valve 7 cable 4 screw 3 ball valve 7 cable 4 screw 7- Insert the sensor 1 sensor 5 tight screw 2 bottom of ball valve 6 connection L= A - b A = sensor length b = pipe thickness L= external sensor length 8- Proceed with the electrical connection Page 11 of 24 SGM-100F - Installation 3.3 Installation check-up Through the checkup of the installation, one can: check the receiving signal strength, the signal quality Q value, the traveling time difference of the signals, the estimated liquid speed, the measured traveling time of the signals and the calculated traveling time ratio. 3.3.1 Signal strength Signal strength indicates the amplitude of receiving ultrasonic signals by a 3-digit number. [000] means there is no signal detected, and [999] refers to the maximum signal strength that can be received. Although the instrument works well if the signal strength ranges from 500 to 999, stronger signal strength should be pursued, because a stronger signal means a better result. The following methods are recommended to obtain stronger signals: (1) Relocate a more favorable location, if the current location is not good enough for a stable and reliable flow reading, or if the signal strength is lower than 700. (2) Try to polish the outer surface of the pipe, and apply more coupler to increase the signal strength. (3) Adjust the transducers both vertically and horizontally while checking the varying signal strength, stop at the highest position, and then check the transducers spacing to make sure the transducers spacing is the same as shown in menu M25 . 3.3.2 Signal quality (Q) Signal quality is indicated as the Q value on the instrument. A higher Q value would mean a higher Signal and Noise Ratio (short for SNR), and accordingly a higher degree of accuracy would be achieved. Under normal pipe condition, the Q value is in the range of 60-90, the higher the better. Causes for a lower Q value could be: (1) Interference of other instruments and devices such as a powerful transverter working nearby. Try to relocate the flow meter to a new place where the interference can be reduced. (2) Bad sonic coupling for the transducers with the pipe. Try to apply more coupler or clean the surface etc (3) Pipes are difficult to be measured. Relocation is recommended. 3.3.3 Total transit time and Delta Time The numbers displayed on menu window M93 are called total transit time and delta time respectively. They are the primitive data for the instrument to calculate the flow rate inside the pipe. So the flow rate indication will vary accordingly with the total time and delta time. The total transit time should remain stable or vary little. If the delta time fluctuates higher than 20%, it means there are certain kinds of problems with the transducer installation. 3.3.4 Time ratio between the Measured Total Transit Time and the Calculated Time This ratio would be used to check the transducer installation. If the pipe parameters are entered correctly and the transducers are installed properly, the value for this ratio should be in the range of 100±3. If this range is exceeded, the user should check: (1) If the pipe parameters are correctly entered. (2) If the actual spacing of the transducers is right and the same as what the window M25 shows. (3) If the transducers are installed properly in the right directions. (4) If the mounting location is good and if the pipe has changed shape. (5) If there is too much fouling inside the pipe. Page 12 of 24 SGM-100F - Use 4 Use 4.1 How to check if the instrument works properly When ‘R’ is displayed in the lowest right corner of LCD display, the instrument is working properly. If an ‘H’ flashes on that place, there could be poor signal received. Please refer to the chapters on diagnosis. If an ‘I’ is displayed, it means that there is no signal detected. If a ‘J’ is displayed, it means that the hardware of this instrument could be out of order. Refer to the chapter on diagnosis. 4.2 How to check the liquid flow direction Make sure that the instrument works properly Check the flow rate for the indication. If the displayed value is POSITIVE, the direction of the flow will be from the UP transducers to the DOWN transducers; if the displayed value is NEGATIVE, the direction will be from the DOWN transducers to the UP transducers. 4.3 How to select unit system Use menu window M30 for the selection of unit system in English or Metric system. 4.4 How to select a required flow rate unit Use menu window M31 to select the flow unit first and then the timing unit. 4.5. How to use the totalizer multiplier Use window M33 to select a proper totalizer. Make sure that the totalizer pulse is appropriately speeded. It should not be too fast and neither too slow. A speed of producing a pulse in several seconds or minutes is preferable. If the totalizer multiplier is too small, there can be a loss of accumulation pulse because the output device can output only one pulse in a measurement period (500milliseconds) If the totalizer multiplier is too large, the output pulse will be too fewer for the devices that are connected with the instrument for a quicker response. 4.6 How to enable or disable the totalizers Use M34, M35 and M36 to turn on or turn off the POS, NEG, or NET totalizer respectively. 4.7 How to reset the totalizers Use M37 to reset the proper totalizer. 4.8 How to restore the flow meter with default values setted by the producer Use M37, when the ‘selection’ message is displayed. Press the dot key first and the message ‘Master Erase’ will display, then press the backspace key The master erase step will erase all the parameters entered by the user and setup the instrument with default values. 4.9 How to use the damper The damper acts as a filter for a stable reading. If ‘0’ is entered in window M40, that means there is no damping. A bigger number brings a more stable effect. But bigger damper numbers will prevent the instrument from acting quickly. Numbers from 0 to 10 are commonly used for the damper value. 4.10 How to use the zero-cutoff function The number displayed in window M41 is called the low-cutoff value. The flow meter will replace these flow rate values that are absolutely less than the low-cutoff value with ‘0’. This means the flow meter will avoid any invalid accumulation when the actual flow is below the zero-cutoff value. The low-cutoff value does not affect the flow measurement when the actual flow is absolutely greater than the lowcutoff value. 4.11 How to setup a zero point There exists a ‘Zero Point’ with certain installation which means the flow meter will display a non-zero value when the flow is absolutely stopped. In this case, setting a zero point with the function in window M42 will bring a more accurate measurement result. Make sure that the flow is absolutely stopped, then run the function in window M42 by pressing the ENT key. Page 13 of 24 SGM-100F - Use 4.12 How to get a range factor for calibration A range factor is the ratio between the ‘actual flow rate’ and the indicated value by the flow meter. The range factor can be determined by calibration with flow calibration equipment. 4.13 How to use the operation locker The system locker provides a means of preventing accidental configuration changes or totalizer resets. When the system is locked, menu window browsing can be done without affecting any change, but any modifications are prohibited. The system can be locked without a password or with a one 1 to 4 digit password. With a no-password locking, directly press the ENT key when the password input prompt displays. If the password is forgotten, please contact the factory 4.14 How to use the built-in data logger Use M50 to turn on the logger and for the selection for the items that is going to be logged. Use M51 for the times when the logging begins and at how long an interval sustains and how long the data logging will last. Use M52 for the direction of logging data. The default setting will permit the logging data to be redirected to the RS485 interface. 4.15 How to use the Frequency Output The frequency output signal, which represents the flow rate, is intended to make connection with other instruments. The Frequency Output is totally user-configurable. Generally, four parameters should be configured for the setups. Enter the lower flow rate value in window M68 and the higher flow rate value in window M69. Enter the frequency range in window M67. For example, assume that the flow rate varies in a range 0m3/h to 3000m3/h, and an output signal is at a maximum frequency of 1000Hz, the minimum of 200Hz is going to be required for other instrumentation. The user should enter 0 in M68 and 3000 in M69, and enter 200 and 1000 in window M67. Please note that the user has to make the selection with OCT setups in window M78 by selecting the 13th option reading like ‘FO output’ to direct the frequency output to the OCT OUTPUT hardware device. 4.16 How to use the Totalizer Pulse Output The totalizer output will produce a pulse output with every unit flow of the totalizer. Refer to point 4.4 and 4.5 for the setups of the totalizer units and multiplier. The totalizer pulse output can only be realized by mapping the pulse output to the OCT or BUZZER hardware devices. For example, assume that the POS totalizer pulse output is needed, and every pulse should represent 0.1cubic meter of liquid flow; the pulse output will be mapped to the internal Buzzer, so that with every 0.1 cubic meter of flow the BUZZER will beep for a while. The following setups should be taken/performed: Select the unit Cubic Meter under window M32. Select the Multiplier as ‘2. X0.1’ under window M33. Select the output option ‘9. POS INT Pulse’ under window M77. (INT stands for totalized ) 4.17 How to produce an alarm signal There are 2 types of hardware alarm signals that are available with this instrument. One is acustic (the Buzzer), and the other one is the attivation of an Open Collector put (OCT). For both the Buzzer and OCT output the triggering sources of the event include the following: Page 14 of 24 SGM-100F - Use (1) no receiving signal (2) poor signal received (3) flow meter not in normal measurement mode (4) reverse flow (5) overflow of the Frequency Output (6) flow out of the setted range There are two out-of-normal-range alarms in this instrument. They are called #1 Alarm and #2 Alarm. The flow range can be user-configurable through M73, M74, M75, M76. For example, assume that the Buzzer should start beeping when the flow rate is less than 300 m3/h and greater than 2000m3/h, the following steps for setups would be recommended: (1) (2) (3) Enter 300 under M73 for #1 alarm low flow rate Enter 2000 under M74 for #1 alarm high flow rate Select the item ‘6. Alarm #1’ under M77. 4.18 How to use the acustic alarms (Buzzer) The built-in buzzer is user-configurable. It can be used as an alarm. Use M77 for setups. 4.19 How to use the OCT output (Open Collector) The OCT output is user-configurable, which can be performed by selecting the proper input source such as pulse output.Use M78 for the setups.Please make sure that the Frequency Output shares the OCT. The OCT output shares pins with the RS-232C interface, and the terminal is at Pin 6 and the ground is at Pin 6. 4.20 How to modify the built-in calendar Modification will be required only in such cases as when the battery is totally consumed, or when the changing of the battery takes a long time. Press the ENT key under M61 for Modification. Use the dot key to skip over these digits that need no modification. 4.21 How to adjust the LCD contrast Use M70 to the LCD contrast. The adjusted result will be stored in the EEPROM so that the MASTER ERASE will make no effect on the contrast. 4.22 How to use the RS232 serial interface Use M62 for the setup of the RS-232C serial interface. 4.23 How to view the Date Totalizers Use M82 to view the date totalizers that are comprised of a daily totalizer, a monthly totalizer and a yearly totalizer. 4.24 How to use the manual totalizer Use M28 for the manual totalizer. Press ENT key to start and stop the totalizer. 4.25 How to check the ESN and other minor details Every set of the series flow meter utilizes a unique ESN to identify the meter. The ESN is an 8-digit number that provides the information of version and manufacturing date.The user can also employ the ESN for instrumentation management.The ESN is displayed in window M61. Other details about the instrument are the total working hours displayed in window M+1, and the total power-on times displayed in window M+4.

The problem are likely caused by the user who has used the ‘Set Zero’ function on this non-standstill flowing pipe. To solve this problem, use the ‘Reset Zero’ function on menu window M43. 2) The displayed flow rate is much lower or much higher than the actual flow rate in the pipe under normal working conditions. a) There is probably an offset value wrongly entered by the user in M44. Enter ‘0’ in M44. b) Check the transducers installation c) There is a ‘Zero Point’ setted. Try to ‘zero’ the instrument by using M42 and make sure that the flow inside the pipe should be standstill. 3) The battery cannot work as long as the the time period indicated in menu M07. a) The battery should be replaced due to the end of the service life b) Newly changed battery does not fit the battery estimating software c) The battery has not been fully recharged or the recharge has been stopped too many times d) The remaining volatge is in the range of 3.70 and 3,90V. SGM-100F - Communication Protocol 7 Communication Protocol 7. 1 General The SGM-100F has a standard communication interface and a complete set of communication protocol. 7.2 Interface pin-out definition Pin 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 for battery recharge, positive input RXD TXD not used GND OCT output not used for battery recharge, negative input RING input for MODEM connection 7.3 The Protocol The Protocol isa composed by a set of basic commands (string in ASCII format) ending with a carriage return (CR) and line feed (LF). Commonly used commands are listed below: Page 22 of 24 SGM-100F - Communication Protocol Command Function DQD(CR) DQH(CR) DQM(CR) DQS(CR) DV(CR) DI+(CR) DI-(CR) DIN(CR) DID(CR) DL(CR) DT(CR) M@(CR)*** LCD(CR) FOdddd(CR) ESN(CR) RING(CR) OK(CR) GA GB GC DUMP(CR) DUMP0(CR) DUMP1(CR) W Return flow rate per day ±d.ddddddE±dd(CR) LF * Return flow rate per hour ±d.ddddddE±dd(CR) LF Return flow rate per minute ±d.ddddddE±dd(CR) LF Return flow rate per second ±d.ddddddE±dd(CR) LF Return flow velocity ±d.ddddddE±dd(CR) LF Return POS totalizer ±dddddddE±d(CR) LF ** Return NEG totalizer ±dddddddE±d(CR) LF Return NET totalizer ±dddddddE±d(CR) LF Return Identification Number ddddd(CR) LF Return signal strength and quality S=ddd,ddd Q=dd (CR)(LF) Return date and time yy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss(CR)(LF) Send a key value as if a key is pressed Return the current window display Force the FO output with a frequency in dddd Hz Return the ESN for the instrument Dddddddd(CR)(LF) Handshaking Request by a MODEM Response from a MODEM No action Command for GSM messaging Please contact factory for detail Command for GSM messaging Command for GSM messaging Return the buffer content In ASCII string format Clear the whole buffer In ASCII string format Return the whole buffer content In ASCII string Format, 24KB in length Prefix before an Identification Number in a network environment. The IDN is a word, ranging 0-65534. Prefix before an Identification Number in a network environment. The IDN is a single byte value, ranging 00-255. Prefix before any command Command connector to make a longer command by combining up to 6 commands N P & Data Format Notes * CR = Carriage Return e LF= Line Feed. ** ‘d’ = numeric digitT 0-9 *** @ stands for the key value, e.g., 30H for the ‘0’ key. 7.4 Protocol prefix utilisation 7.4.1) Prefix P The prefix P can be added before any command in the above table to have the returning data followed with two bytes of CRC check sum, which is the adding sum of the original character string. Take the DI+(CR) command as an example. Assume that DI+(CR) would return +1234567E+0m3(CR)(LF)( the string in hexadecimal is 2BH, 31H, 32H, 33H, 34H, 35H, 36H, 37H, 45H, 2BH, 30H, 6DH, 33H, 20H, 0DH, 0AH) , then PDI(CR) would return +1234567E+0m3!F7(CR)(LF). ‘!’ acts as the starter of check sum which is yielded by adding up the string 2BH, 31H, 32H, 33H, 34H, 35H, 36H, 37H, 45H, 2BH, 30H, 6DH, 33H, 20H. Please note that there will be SPACES (20H) before ‘!’. 7.4.2) Prefix W The prefix W should be used in the network environment. The usage format is W + digit string which stands for the IDN + basic command. The digit string should have a value between 0 and 65534 except 13(0DH), 10 (0AH), 42(2AH,*), 38(26H, &). For example, if the IDN=12345 instrument is addressed and returning the velocity of that instrument is requested, the command will be W12345DV(CR). Page 23 of 24 SGM-100F - Communication Protocol 7.4.3) N Prefix The prefix N is a single byte IDN network prefix, not recommended in a new design. It is reserved only for the purpose of the compatibility with the former versions Command Connector & The & command connector can connect up to 6 basic commands to form a longer command so that it will make the programming much easier. For example, assume that the measurement of an instrument with IDN=4321 are going to be returned, and (then) all the following 3 values— (1) flow rate (2) velocity (3)POS totalizer—will be returned simultaneously. The combined command would be W4321DQD&DV&DI+(CR), and the result would be: +1.234567E+12m3/d(CR) +3.1235926E+00m/s(CR) +1234567E+0m3(CR) 7.5 Code for keypad The codes for the keypad should be used when the instrument is connected with other terminals that operate the instrument by transmitting the ‘M’ command along with the keypad code. By this function, remote operation of this instrument can be realized, even via the Internet.
