Principle Ultrasonic flowmeter measures flow velocity by measuring transit time.

Measured velocity is converted into flow volume by multiplying K. K: constant (area and flow profile)

INTRODUCTION We have two version of Ultrasonic flow meters, i.e., Portable and Fixed types identified as:

US300PM US300FM. The measuring principle is based on the influence of the flowing fluid to the traveling time of sound. The sound is transmitted through a pipe and the transit time difference between the forward and backward beams are used to determine the flow.

FEATURES

The measurement is non-intrusive No cutting of pipe lines necessary The measurement is independent of fluid pressure or conductivity Clamp on type hence Easy and quick installation Excellent solution for hygienic applications No risk of contamination as sensor is non-contact type No issues of wetted part selection Single flow meter for various fluids / applications Facility of use with a pair of sensor thus enabling measurement of average flow / differential flow / two independent flow.
