1 Important Information
1. 2 Scope of document
This document applies to meters with firmware version 3.6.00 or higher and
extended memory for the storage of e.g. hourly and daily mean values.
The software description in this document applies to MEPAFLOW600 CBM
V1.3.00.
● In hazardous areas with potentially explosive atmospheres, wiring and installation shall
only be carried out by staff trained according to EN /IEC 60079-14 and according to
national regulations.
1. 6 Dangers due to hot, corrosive and explosive gases and high pressure
The FLOWSIC600 measuring system is directly integrated into gas-carrying pipelines.
The operating company is responsible for safe operation and for complying with additional
national and company-specific regulations.
WARNING:
In plants with toxic and explosive gases, high pressure or high temperatures,
the FLOWSIC600 measuring system shall only be installed or removed after
the associated piping has been isolated and depressurized (i.e. vented to
atmosphere).
The same applies to repair and service work which involves opening any
pressurized component or the explosion-proof signal processing unit (SPU).

** Default setting on delivery.
*** Optional setting on customer request.
The default setting for "Check request", "Configuration" and "Data invalid" is "normally
closed".
*The "active" or "inactive" state can be assigned to the electric switch status "normally
open" or "normally closed" by configuration in the MEPAFLOW600 CBM software (adjust
settings for Reg. #5101 on the "Parameters" page.).
The output signal designation is described inthe Technical Information.
The LCD display can display measured values, parameters, messages and other informa-
tion.
A flashing letter in the upper right corner of the LCD display indicates that a logbook con-
tains unacknowledged logbook entries. Depending on the type of entry this will be:
● "I" for Information
● "W" for Warning
● "E" for Error
After acknowledging all new entries, the letter stops flashing. For details see pg. 94, 5.4.1.

2.4.2 Logbooks
Important system events are stored in three logbooks in the SPU memory of the meter.
Each logbook entry consists of a running index number, the event, a time stamp and the
acknowledgement status. Entries in Custody logbook [1] and Warning logbook [2] also
include the volume counter readings valid at that time. The events are logged continuously
in order of occurrence into one of the three logbooks:
● Logbook 1 (Custody logbook [1], max. 1000 entries)
● Logbook 2 (Warning logbook [2], max. 500 entries)
● Logbook 3 (Parameter logbook [3], max. 250 entries)
Every logbook has its own index counter. Logbook entries are classified on the LCD display
according to the event type.
Event types in logbooks
Each entry can be acknowledged manually on the LCD display (see Technical Information)
as well as in MEPAFLOW600 CBM ( pg. 95, 5.4.1.2). It is possible to acknowledge individ-
ual entries or all entries at once.
2.4.3 DataLogs1
For firmware version 3.4.03 and higher, the FLOWSIC600 provides two DataLogs (Hourly

3. 2 Installation
Generally, the installation arrangement is specified during the project planning phase,
before installation of the system. Nominal size, material and type of flange should there-
fore be in accordance with the design of the measurement facility. It is particularly
important that the meter inlet and outlet is of the same internal diameter as the adjacent
piping.
Fastening bolts, nuts and flange seals used must be suited to the operational conditions,
and comply with legal regulations and relevant standards.
The installation requirements were evaluated according to the flow
disturbance sensitivity tests according to
● OIML R 137-1&2, 2012 "Gas meters", Annex B and
● ISO 17089-1, 2010, "Measurement of fluid flow in closed conduits -
ultrasonic meters for gas - Part 1: Meters for custody transfer and
allocation measurement.", 5.9.3 Installation requirements and flow profile
considerations.
Any deviation from the planned design of the FLOWSIC600 and installation
arrangement shall be agreed upon with the supplier and documented prior to
installing the meter.
● For the leak-proof connection on the pressure line, a suitable thread sealing agent (e.g.
PTFE tape) must be used when the pressure connection adapter is screwed in. After
Installation and Commissioning the leak-tightness must be checked. All leaks must be
repaired. Temperature probes shall be arranged as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9.

Terminal assignment
The terminal assignment in the SPU terminal box (see pg. 43, Figure 14) is the same as for
the installation of the FLOWSIC600 in non-hazardous areas (see table pg. 44, 3.4.5).
NOTICE:
For measurement reasons, the equipotential bonding must, as far as possible,
be identical to the pipeline potential or protective ground/earth. Additional
grounding with the protective conductor via the terminals is not permitted!
The connections of the ultrasonic transducers are intrinsically safe and are safely
separated from one another and from other non-intrinsically safe circuits. The transducers
may be connected and disconnected during operation as long as the safe separation of
circuits has been preserved in every respect. In order to ensure this, the respective
transducer connection cable should be disconnected at both ends (disconnect the
electronics side first, and then if necessary, the transducer side unless the MCX connector
is suitably fixed to prevent any uncontrolled movement). Operation using sensors or cables
not part of the original delivery or with sensors/components from other manufacturers is
not permitted.
NOTICE:

4. 1 General notes
Before commissioning, all activities described in the chapter »Installation« must be
completed. It is recommended to use a laptop/PC with MEPAFLOW600 CBM software
installed for the commissioning ( pg. 59, 4.3). The commissioning should be documented
with a Commissioning Protocol. The document "FLOWSIC600 Commissioning Protocol" is
content of the FLOWSIC600 shipping on paper and on the product CD.
The FLOWSIC600 is ’wet’ or ’dry’ calibrated when delivered to the end user. The ’dry’ cali-
bration consists of the 3-D measurement of the meter body, zero-flow and speed of sound
test, and other system specific inspections/tests which belong to the manufacturing and
quality assurance process. The ’wet’ calibration is performed at a flow calibration test
stand (calibration test facility).
All parameters, determined by the aforementioned tests, as well as design specific data
are preset and stored in the FLOWSIC600 in a non-volatile memory before delivery. The
design-specific data, which is known before manufacturing the device, will not be changed
during commissioning. This is of special importance if the FLOWSIC600 is officially sealed
after an authorized flow calibration. Generally, the parameters are protected by a
password. Additionally a Parameter write lock in the SPU prevents custody relevant
parameter changes.
NOTICE: Type approval
If the FLOWSIC600 is to be used for custody transfer applications, each
change of parameters and of the Parameter write lock has to be agreed to by
the applicable national authorities.
In all other cases the output parameters of the FLOWSIC600 can be adapted on site by
trained staff.
Commissioning the FLOWSIC600 involves the following steps, regardless of whether the
device is installed at a test facility or at the final measuring location:
● Connecting the FLOWSIC600 to a PC or Laptop ( pg. 57, 4.2)
● Connecting to the FLOWSIC600 with MEPAFLOW600 CBM ( pg. 59, 4.3)
● Identification ( pg. 65, 4.4)
● Field setup ( pg. 67, 4.5)
● Function test pg. 69, 4.6,
● Optional additional setup ( pg. 72, 4.7)
● Activation of path compensation ( pg. 83, 4.8)
● Sealing ( pg. 84, 4.9),
● Documentation ( pg. 84, 4.10)

Go to the "Meter values" page to check that the measured SOS values are almost the
same at all paths of the FLOWSIC600, and that they differ by less then 0.1%
( Figure 27).
Switch between display of absolute and difference SOS by clicking the right mouse
button on the SOS graph and using the context-menu.
In the case of very low gas velocities (< 1 m/s or 3 ft/s), there may be more
significant differences between the paths due to thermal stratification. In this
case, the SOS on the upper paths (1 and 2) will be higher than the lower paths.
Check that the measured SOS deviates no more than 0,3% from a theoretical SOS,
which is calculated from gas composition, pressure and temperature ( pg. 87, 5.2.1).

your installation.
When the reference classes are filled with data representing the usual operation of the
installation, the current classes will be continuously updated, showing the current state of
the meter. Use the Diagnostics Comparison Report (see Technical Information) pg. 181,
6.4.3, to detect changes in the meter between the diagnostic values in the reference
classes and those in the current classes.
4.7.3.2 Configuring the general conditions for the Diagnostics Comparison Log
The gas velocity class ranges are calculated to optimally cover the operation range of the
meter. The lower limit of the gas velocity range classes is defined by the parameter "Min.
VOG for warnings". The upper limit is defined by "VOG limit".
View the Diagnostics Comparison data tab, to find the velocity class limits calculated
for the meter. Figure 4, S. 24 shows an example of a Diagnostics Comparison Log filled
with entries.
If necessary, configure "Min. VOG for warnings" and "VOG limit" to fit the application
range of your specific FLOWSIC600 on the configuration tab of the User Warnings
window ( pg. 72, 4.7.1).
● Changes to the parameters "Min. VOG for warnings" or "VOG limit" will clear
all data from the Diagnostics Comparison Log!
● Note that the parameter "Min. VOG for warnings", Reg. #7208
"PathCompClassLow", plays an important role in path compensation (see

Subject to change without notice
5. 1 General
The FLOWSIC600 does not contain mechanically moving parts. The meter body and ultra-
sonic transducers are the only components that come into contact with the gaseous
media. Titanium and high-quality stainless steel ensure that these components are
resistant to corrosion, provided that the meter is installed and operated in accordance with
the relevant specifications. This means that the FLOWSIC600 is a low-maintenance
system. User Warning Limits can be configured to provide early warnings for possible
issues with contamination or blockage. Maintenance is limited mainly to routine checks to
determine the plausibility of the measured values and diagnostic results produced by the
system.
It is recommended that Maintenance Reports be created and filed on a regular basis
( pg. 92, 5.3). This creates a basis of comparable data over time and helps when a problem
requires diagnosis.
The operating conditions (gas composition, pressure, temperature, flow
velocity) of the individual Maintenance Reports should be comparable or
documented separately and taken into account when the data is analyzed.
Routine checks:
»Comparing theoretical and measured Speed of Sound (SOS)« (pg. 87)
»Checking the meter health« (pg. 89)
»Time synchronization« (pg. 90)
»Battery lifespan / capacity« (pg. 91)
Documentation:
»Maintenance report« (pg. 92)
Enter the gas composition and specify temperature and pressure for your specific
application.
Click the "Calculate" button.
If the SOS calculator was started from the Maintenance Report, the calculated value is
automatically copied to the corresponding field in the wizard and to the report.
Compare the theoretical SOS with the SOS measured by the FLOWSIC600 (see
Figure 32, main system bar).
The deviation between both should be less than 0.1%. If the deviation exceeds 0.3%,
check the plausibility of temperature, pressure and gas composition. Otherwise proceed
according to pg. 87, 5.2.1.
Battery
Charge 100%
Because the FLOWSIC600 has no regular maintenance cycle, the system alarm "Battery
lifetime" is generated when the remaining battery life is less than 15%. This alarm forces
the operator to change the battery ( pg. 101, 6.2.1). A logbook entry is also generated.
Optionally, the user can choose an additional user warning for the battery lifespan (see
Technical Information).
NOTICE:
The battery may only be changed by trained staff. See pg. 106, 6.2.4 for
troubleshooting.
Subject to change without notice
5. 3 Maintenance report
It is recommended that Maintenance Reports be generated and filed on a regular basis.
This creates a basis of comparable data over time and helps when a problem has to be
diagnosed.
The operating conditions (gas composition, pressure, temperature, flow
velocity) of the individual Maintenance Reports should be similar or
documented separately and taken into account when the data is analyzed.
Specify the "Collection duration", a timespan, over which live meter data is to be
collected to document the meter‘s state (default: 1 minute).
Enter the current pressure, temperature and SOS. Use the SOS Calculator to calculate
the SOS for the gas composition ( pg. 87, 5.2.1). The gas composition must be current
and representative.
Click the "Start" button to start live data collection. Diagnosis data, measured values
and status information will be collected over the specified time span and will be saved
in the meter database.
Click the "Create report" button. The Maintenance report will be generated and
displayed.
Print it and file the copy in the Manufacturer Data Report (MDR) shipped with the
meter.
The Maintenance report and the record are stored in the MEPAFLOW600 CBM
meter database and accessible via the "Meter explorer" and the "Report
Manager". Maintenance reports can be exported to an Excel file. If
Maintenance reports have been regularly collected, a Trend report can be
created (see Technical Information).

● Any flow rates given above are also valid in the bidirectional mode.
● G-classes marked with an asterisk (*) must only be used in configuration No. 2 (see
pg. 33, 3.2.2).
● G-classes marked with an (E) have an extended max. flow rate (max. flow velocity vmax =
36 m/s) related to commonly established turbine meter G-classes.
● The transition flow Qt is based on the flow range the meter is designed for according to
the main plate. It is:
- for a flow range of 1:20 Qt=0.20 Qmax and
- for a flow range of 1:30 Qt=0.15 Qmax and
- for a flow range of 1:50 Qt=0.10 Qmax
● Higher values for Qmin and lower values for Qmax are admissible provided that
Qmin 0.05 Qmax.
● Another meter factor is admissible if the frequency at the pulse output is selected
<6 kHz for 1.2 Qmax.
