An alternative mounting configuration Illustration 3 sketch 3 is the Diagonal mode Z Mode The signals travel only once through the pipe This method is often used for larger pipes where greater signal attenuation might occur Further variation of the Reflection and the Diagonal Modes are possible by altering the number of passes through the pipe Any even number of passes will require mounting the sensors on the same side of the pipe while with an odd number of passes the sensors must be mounted on opposite sides of the pipe Commonly for very small pipes sensor mounting configurations such as 4 passes W mode or 3 passes N mode are used Illustration 3 sketch 2 Illustration 3 Clamp on sensor mounting configurations and sensor spacing The transducer separation distance A is measured from the inside edges of the sensor heads as shown in illustration 3 It is automatically calculated by the flowmeter based on the parameter entries for pipe outside diameter wall thickness lining material and thickness medium process temperature the sensor type and the selected number of signal passes A negative separation distance A lt O can occur for mounting configurations on small pipes where diagonal mode operation has been selected see Illustration 3 sketch 3 Negative separation distances may be suggested for reflection mode installations but are not possible In these cases use diagonal mode or a larger number of p
