Features

  • High-precision measurement: Linearity better than 0.5%, repeatability better than 0.2%, and measurement accuracy better than ±1%.
  • Non-contact measurement: Flow measurement is achieved by attaching a magnetic ultrasonic flow meter sensor to the outer wall of the pipe.
  • Large measurement range: Different sensor models can be selected to measure the flow rate of pipes with diameters from DN15 to DN6000mm.
  • Rechargeable power supply: Built-in high-capacity NiMH rechargeable battery supports continuous operation of the flow meter for over 20 hours.
  • Built-in printer: Enables instant screen printing and timed printing of up to 20 pre-set measurement results.
  • Uses an isolated power supply, improving anti-interference capability; Features fluid type identification based on fluid sound velocity;
  • Portable ultrasonic flow meters, when paired with clamp-on temperature sensors, can measure heat.

Types of Viscometers: Lab vs Inline

Viscosity and its measurement are closely related to experimental scientific research and industrial production. A viscometer is a device capable of effectively measuring the viscosity of a fluid and providing a readout or an output signal. While viscosity measurements were…

Pressure Transducer for Ammonia Refrigeration

Pressure transducers for ammonia refrigeration are designed to measure the pressure and vacuum of ammonia in both liquid and gaseous states. It is mainly used in refrigeration equipment to measure the pressure of liquid ammonia, gaseous ammonia, or mixtures thereof…

Edible Oil Tank Level Monitoring for Large Storage Tanks

This article uses a vegetable oil storage tank 15 m in diameter and 12 m high (about 2,100 m³) as the reference case: a vertical, atmospheric-pressure tank common in grain and oil depots. Vegetable oil is a clean, free-flowing medium,…

Gear Flow Meters for Viscous and Corrosive Low Flow Dosing

We have provided customized flow measurement solutions for various clients dealing with high-viscosity, low-flow, and corrosive operating conditions. For instance, a polyurethane production line in Nigeria required the metering of a resin with a viscosity of approximately 2000 cP at…

The Impact of Medium Viscosity on Oval Gear Flowmeters

We previously received an inquiry from a user in Mexico requesting a selection recommendation and a quote for an oval gear flowmeter (a type of positive displacement flowmeter). The application involved a DN100 pipe with a flow range of 150–2500…

Portable ultrasonic flow meters feature two sensors that function as both transmitters and receivers. Users simply attach the two sensors to the outside of the pipe at a specific distance. The V-method (two-way sound path), W-method (four-way sound path), or Z-method (relatively mounted, where the sound wave passes directly through the pipe being measured) can be used.

The flow meter controls the two sensors to alternately receive and transmit ultrasonic waves, measuring the propagation time between them and calculating the time difference. This time difference is proportional to the fluid velocity.

We at Sino-Inst supply various types of ultrasonic flow meters, including wall-mounted, handheld, and portable models. They are widely used for flow measurement in various liquid pipelines. Please feel free to contact us for inquiries!
