MSP430FR6047: How many transducers can be supported

Part Number: MSP430FR6047

Hi, 

I have already looked into MSP430FR6047 for residential water metering and it is a great fit for that application. However, for residential water metering, i only need to support a pair of ultrasonic transducers. Now i am looking to see if this same platform can be utilized to more than a pair of transducers for industrial flow type applications, where the pipe sizes are larger and more transducers are required. Can you help with the following 

1. Can the MSP430FR6047 support more than a pair of transducers? 

2. If yes, what the maximum number of transducers can it support. My thought is to use either 4 or 5 pairs (a maximum of 10 transducers)

3. What additional HW and SW do i need? I do not see any mention of this on the TI website

4. Can i start evaluation today and what type of accuracy can i expect when i scale to more than a pair of transducers

5. How will the current consumption increase with the increase in number of transducer pairs?

Thanks

Kripa
