Abstract: A series of tests were conducted where ultrasonic sound (50 kHz) was transmitted through 2 ABS plastic pipe, elbows, and tees. The ultrasonic sound attenuation of these various piping configurations was measured to evaluate their effectiveness for isolating ultrasonic meters from interfering ultrasonic noise. After discovering that three capped tees only provided 9 dB of attenuation, a simple muffler design was tested. When installed with a tee, a simple glass-pack muffler provided over 28 dB of ultrasonic noise attenuation.
