D118 Ultransonic Flow Meter

Product Detail

Ultrasonic Flowmeter D118

· Achieve high accuracy at low and high flows
· Simply clamp-on outside of pipe for easy set up
· Save time with no pipe cutting or process shutdown




Overview


Ultrasonic flowmeter D118 is a high-performance general purpose clamp-on flow meter incorporating the latest developments in universal transit-time digital signal processing to offer excellent accuracy and repeatability for a wide variety of liquids. The flow meter measures the time it takes an ultrasonic signal to travel a known distance with the flow stream and another signal travelling against the flow stream, determining the velocity of the fluid being measured.
Ultrasonic flowmeter D118 clamp-on meter can also be ordered with insertion transducers to eliminate problems with pipe wall thickness, liners, wall deposits, and where difficult piping configurations present signal strength issues.




Common applications include: 

· Cooling and heating fluid measurements
· Water and wastewater measurements
· Leak detection in piping systems
· Monitoring and controlling of HVAC systems
· Fuel and oil consumption measurements
· Contactless product recognition
· Interface detection
· Offshore applications
· Automated process control
