 INTRODUCTION

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
Ultra Mag meters are available with integral or remote mount converters. Standard display features include forward,
reverse and net flow totalizers, flow rate, alarm monitoring, and automatic self diagnostics to ensure integrity. All data and
values are in selectable units of measurement. System compatibility is assured with a choice of current, pulse and serial
data. Please refer to the converter manual provided with your meter.
Ultra Mag operating parameters are set via the electronics keypad. The software features multilevel password protection
capability to prevent inadvertent program or setting changes. Data is stored in nonvolatile memory.
The flanged end tube design permits use in a wide range of applications. The fabricated tube is stainless steel with steel or
stainless steel flanges and incorporates the UltraLiner, an NSF approved fusion-bonded epoxy liner.

1.2 Uncrating
The shipping crate contains the following items:
Electromagnetic meter assembly with grounding wire attached
Converter cable (attached to meter)
Signal converter
Grounding rings
Ground wires (2)
User manuals for both the sensor and converter
Installation hardware (2” & 3” only)
Gaskets (4) (2” & 3” only)

When uncrating the Ultra Mag, any damage due to rough or improper handling should be reported to the transportation
firm and McCrometer. If for any reason it is determined that the unit or parts of the unit should be returned to the factory,
please contact McCrometer for clearance prior to shipment. Each unit must be properly crated to prevent any further
damage. The factory assumes no responsibility for equipment damaged in return shipment due to improper packaging.

1.3 Serial Numbers

The converter and sensor are supplied as a matched system.
Verify the meter serial numbers on both the converter and sensor
match. This will insure a properly calibrated system.
The tag on the side of the converter has the converter model
number, the converter serial number and the meter serial
number, which is calibrated to the converter. An example is
shown at right.

Figure 1. Converter serial number tag

i IMPORTANT: Verify the meter serial numbers on both the converter and sensor match. This will insure a
properly calibrated system. The meter serial number is located on a plate on the body of the sensor, and
the converter serial number and the meter serial number are located on a label on the side of the converter.
Insure the meter serial number on the sensor and the converter tags match.

 PREPARING FOR A NEW INSTALLATION

2.0 PREPARING FOR A NEW INSTALLATION

2.1 Pipe Run Requirements
The meter needs to be located a minimum distance before and after flow disturbances, such as elbows, pumps, partially
opened valves, and changes in pipe diameter. The uneven flow created by these obstructions can vary with each system.
The minimum distance is measured in pipe diameters (D). To ensure accuracy locate the sensor upstream and downstream
of flow disturbances as follows:
2" & 3" Wafer style meters 3D upstream / 1D downstream
4" - 48" Steel flanged meters 1D upstream / 0D downstream

2.1.1 Meter Mounted Converter Location

Adjoining pipe must be adequately supported, and the area around the sensor should provide sufficient drainage to
prevent flooding the converter or conduits.
The location chosen should provide room to read the display and be free from harsh electrical noise from adjacent
equipment, cables, R.F.I., or E.M.I. The signal converter should not be subjected to intense, prolonged sunlight and/or
vibrations. Unit should also be protected from heat.
2.1.2 Remote Mount
The signal converter may be installed in a desired location provided that free access is available to allow the display to
be viewed as required. The unit can be either wall mounted or panel mounted with masonry fixings or nuts and bolts
respectively via the fixing holes provided. The maximum distance between the meter and the converter is 200 feet. For
applications with extended lengths, consult factory.

Page 3 30119-03 Rev. 6.6 | 05AUG2021

 PREPARING FOR A NEW INSTALLATION
2.2 Positioning and Orienting the Sensor
The following installation recommendations should be followed (see Figure 2 for installation diagrams):

Horizontal installation
In horizontal pipe runs, the meter should be installed so that the
junction box is vertical insuring the electrodes are positioned to
prevent coating by sediments or loss of electrode contact due to
air bubbles. Flow direction

Vertical installation
In vertical pipe runs, the flow should be upward. In slurry application, a vertical
position ensures optimal distribution of solids under all flow conditions.
Flow direction

Less than full pipes

In pipes which may encounter less than a full pipe of fluid,
the meter must be positioned in a trap to ensure that the
Fluid level
sensor is always completely filled with liquid.

3.2 Flanged Meter Installation

Install the Ultra Mag flow meter inline between two flanged end pipes. The flow meter may require grounding, depending
on the environment they are being installed in. Refer to section 3.4 for a full description of grounding methods that are
available.

3.3 Grounding Considerations

i
IMPORTANT
NOTE: On meters installed on a line with cathodic protection it may be necessary to insulate the meter from
the line. Consult your cathodic protection vendor for instructions.

3.3.1 Grounding and Electrical Interference

The sensor body must have electrical contact with the media. This is achieved via grounding rings. For best performance,
McCrometer provides grounding rings for all sizes, and they should be installed.
Always ensure that the converter and the sensor are grounded (earthed) correctly. The grounding of the sensor and
converter ensures that the equipment and liquid have an equal potential. For most installations the quality of grounding
by the provided cabling assures the sensor is properly grounded and additional grounding of the sensor is not required.
However, in instances where this is not the case, i.e. the equipment and fluid do not have an equal potential, such as where
the installation location and/or media is subjected to electrical interference, additional grounding steps may be required.
Consult an electrician experienced with instrumentation installations to determine if electrical interference is present. For
further information on installation environments and sensor grounding, please contact McCrometer Technical Support.

Page 5 30119-03 Rev. 6.6 | 05AUG2021

 INSTALLATION
3.3.2 Fluid Conductivity
The fluid to be measured must have a minimum conductivity of 5μS/cm for an electromagnetic flow meter to operate.
Systems with such low conductivity require that the system is well grounded with no electrical interference. Also, In low
conductivity fluids (less than 50 μS/cm) long cable lengths may affect flow meter’s ability to read the flow signal.
To eliminate rapid changes in fluid conductivity, it is recommended that all blending and chemical injecting be done
downstream of the meter to avoid possible measurement error and/or issues. If blending or chemical injecting is performed
upstream of the meter, is should be done upstream of the meter early enough so the flow media is thoroughly mixed prior
to entering the measurement area.

3.4 Sensor Grounding

The grounding rings and gaskets must be used to ensure a positive seal at the flanges, and to ensure fluid is properly
grounded to sensor. For best performance, McCrometer provides grounding rings, which should be installed for all sizes.
When installing into a PVC or plastic pipe system, grounding rings are required for all sizes.

i
IMPORTANT
Information For Grounding Ring Installations
• Gaskets must be used on either side of the grounding ring to provide a proper seal on the flanges. One
gasket is used on flanges without a grounding ring.
• Rings & gaskets must align concentrically with the pipe so they do not obstruct or affect flow through the
tube.
• The two grounding rings and four gaskets require an additional installation width of 0.5”.
