GENERAL INFORMATION

Meet the Seametrics jWAVE. Capture accurate and

reliable ow readings with your mobile device, with less

hassle and in less time—wherever you need a ow or

volume measurement.

No wires. No bulky electronics box to lug around. Your

ultrasonic ow meter hardware installs on the outside of

your pipe in a snap—and senses through the pipe wall.

Your mobile device displays readings and helps you set

up the hardware.

The jWAVE Flow Meter solution starts with the jWAVE App

(downloadable from the app stores) and works on both

iOS and Android devices.

The jWAVE Flow meter is a compact, strap-on transit

time ultrasonic transducer device. The jWAVE operates

by alternately transmitting and receiving a burst of

sound energy between two transducers. It then wirelessly

transmits ow measurements to your mobile device. Use

Specications*

the portable data logger to conveniently record ow for

as long as 14 days or as little as one minute.

The jWAVE is highly portable. Just bring the rechargeable

clamp-on meter in its lightweight, weatherproof case,

along with a tablet or smartphone (iOS or Android).

Bluetooth connectivity replaces wires, and the jWAVE App

guides you through setup.

The convenient cam cleats let you mount the ow

meter on any pipe in seconds—no cumbersome clamps

required.

Bi-directional readings are transmitted to your mobile

device for display and your location’s settings are stored

in the jWAVE App, ready for reuse.

When you are done, simply release the cleats, then take

the compact meter on to your next location.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Technology

The transit time ow meter operates by alternately transmitting and

receiving a burst of sound energy between the two transducers.

The burst is rst transmitted in the direction of uid ow and then

against uid ow.

Since sound energy in a moving liquid is carried faster when it travels

in the direction of uid ow (downstream) than it does when it travels against uid ow (upstream), a differential

in the travel times will occur. The sound’s travel time is accurately measured in both directions and then used to

compute the ow rate.

Sound waves can bounce in many directions as they travel through various materials. The more the sound waves

scatter, the fewer actually reach the second transducer. The jWAVE uses sophisticated methods to maximize

transducer efciency, thus allowing the unit to run on very low power. Focusing of the sound wave is also

important to ensure it reaches the second transducer without degrading. This is accomplished by accurately

spacing the transducers to allow for optimum sound transit between transducers. The jWAVE app computes this

spacing based on the pipe size, pipe material, and type of liquid.

Transit time technology works best in clean or mildly dirty water or uids with minimal turbulence or ow

distortion.

Do’s and Don’ts

Do charge your jWAVE at least once a month.

Do store your jWAVE in a dry, inside area when

not in use.

Do store your jWAVE fully charged.

Do keep your jWAVE in its protective case when

transporting to prevent damage.

Do gently clean the transducer pads regularly

with isopropyl alcohol to prevent hardening

and build up of used coupling gel.

Don’t charge with any charger other than the

12W charger supplied. Other chargers may

damage the jWAVE.

Don’t store, transport, or use your jWAVE where

the device may exceed 150˚F (65˚C)—

battery may leak or explode!

Don’t bang or drop the jWAVE on hard objects or

surfaces.

Don’t nick the transducer pads.

Getting Started

Begin by downloading the Seametrics jWAVE App to your iPhone™, Android phone, or other Bluetooth enabled

mobile device from the Apple Store™ or Google Play™. (Note: On an iPad, you must select iPhone Only in the app

store.) If you do not have automatic updates enabled on your device, be sure to update your app when notied that

there is a new version available.

NOTE: Be sure your mobile device supports Bluetooth 4.0 (BLE).

The following iOS devices support Bluetooth 4.0: iPhone 4S and later, iPad 3rd generation and

later, iPad mini, iPad Air, and iPod Touch 5th generation.

If you have an Android device, check the settings on the device or specications for the device.

Location Setup

Launching the app lands you on the locations screen. The

app always begins with this screen at launch, making

it easy to access previously saved location settings.

Begin by tapping on the add location (+) button.

Give your location a name and then set the specic

parameters for that location. Each location’s settings are

stored in the jWAVE App, ready for reuse.

Not Ideal:

Allows air pockets to form at meter

Recommended:

Keep pipe full at meter for accuracy

Not Ideal:

Air can be trapped

Recommended:

Allows air to bleed off

Not Ideal:

Post-valve cavitation can create air pocket

Recommended:

Keeps pipe full at meter for accuracy

FLOW METER INSTALLATION

Horizontal (3 o’clock or 9 o’clock

position) is the preferred installation

orientation, since it avoids problems

with trapped air and sediment.

Once you entered your parameters in the previous section, the app

automatically computed the proper transducer spacing. This is shown at the

bottom of the main app screen.

The next step is to adjust the transducer spacing on the ow meter, as

follows:

1. Rotate the black knob to unlock the horizontal motion for each

transducer.

2. Move the transducers to the specied transducer spacing by sliding

them along the integrated ruler. Note: It is not necessary to start at

zero on the ruler, so long as the actual spacing is correct.

3. Lock into place using the black knobs. This is important to prevent the

transducer spacing from moving when mounting the ow meter!

Power Considerations

Your jWAVE Flow meter battery has been fully charged at the factory before shipping and is ready to go.* When it’s

time to recharge the battery, the app will let you know.

When using the datalogging function and recording for more than 12 hours, the jWAVE must be connected to a power

source, such as a portable USB power bank or a USB power adapter connected to an external power source.

* On a full charge, the jWAVE will have a shelf life of up to ve months. It is a good idea to charge the unit for a full ve hours if it hasn’t been used for

a month or two. On a full charge the meter should operate for up to 12 hours of continuous use. Note that if the battery is at, the power button LED

will blink rapidly for ve seconds and then the meter will turn off.

To prevent damage, you must use the

supplied 12W charger ONLY.
