 The economical solution
Ultrasonic flowmeter as a single channel flowmeter in an
IP 66 (~NEMA4X) dust and waterproof housing.
|
 Multi-channel field instrument
Incorporating up to 4 flow channels and an array of process
interfaces within an IP 65 (~NEMA4) field mounted enclosure or a 19 inch rack
system. The housing has enough room to accommodate a variety of
different configurations in order to meet diverse application
requirements.

 Non-invasive flow meter suitable for hazardous areas
An ultrasonic flowmeter for use in hazardous areas and rough
industrial environments. This rugged flow meter features one or
two flow channels and is fully ATEX certified for hazardous area
Zone 1 and 2 applications. Serial communication facilities are for
integration into plant wide control systems.

 External measurement of internal flow
The use of clamp-on sensors in conjunction with the flowmeters
allows for both non-invasive measurement and easy installation.
Unlike in-line devices, there is no need to use expensive
materials for the measurement of aggressive media and what's more,
the risk of flanges causing leakages into the external environment
is completely removed. Furthermore, by measuring non-invasively
all measurements taken are fully independent of the pressure
rating in the pipe. Additionally, there is no risk of
contamination. |
Cost savings
The ultrasonic sensors are clamped onto the outside of the pipe, thus
eliminating the need to dismantle the pipe work and interrupt the
process. The ultrasonic flowmeter can be applied to any type of
standard pipe carrying clean or dirty liquids. Considerable
installation cost savings can be achieved by using clamp-on
technology. Also retrospective installations on existing pipelines are
possible without great expense. Only two pairs of transducers cover
virtually all pipe sizes thereby saving stock holding costs.
Intelligent sensors!
Each sensor pair is fully calibrated and has a non-volatile internal
memory containing the calibration parameters, serial number and
automatic sensor identification. Hermetically sealed stainless steel
transducers and its associated cable conduit are suitable for rough
industrial environments.
User friendly
All parameters can be entered via the keypad through a step-by-step
interactive dialogue. With the clamp-on sensors positioned correctly,
the flow rate of the liquid can be determined in minutes.
High
specification
Fast digital signal processors and sophisticated signal analysis
guarantee reliable measuring results even under difficult conditions
where previously ultrasonic flowmeters had failed. Additionally, the
units can be equipped with a number of optional functions:
Integral
data logger
-
Even without a
strip-chart recorder or control system connected, all data is securely
captured in the meter. This feature is ideal for stand-alone remote
flow measuring stations or integrated telemetry solutions.
Heat
quantity measurement
-
Thanks to the
integrated heat quantity measurement option in some models, it is
additionally possible to measure the flow of thermal energy. The heat
quantity coefficients for various media are already pre-programmed,
thereby avoiding errors and guaranteeing accuracy.
Concentration/density measurements
-
Concentration
and density measurements can also be performed using clamp-on sensors.
Ultrasonic flowmeters allow on-line product quality monitoring
combined with the advantages of non-invasive measurement.
