Automatic Medium Pressure Ultrasonic Clamp On Flow Meter, for Industrial, Certificate : CE Certified

Listing ID #6050005

The TFX-500w transit time ultrasonic flow meter measures volumetric flow of clean water in pipes 10 in. or smaller. By clamping on the outside of the pipe, the ultrasonic meter installs without cutting or tapping the pipe.

APPLICATION

The TFX-500w meter is well suited for building automation, water distribution and wastewater collection in new and retrofit applications. In addition to having lower installation costs than an inline flow meter, the TFX-500w meter can be installed while the system continues to operate without interruption.
The TFX-500w meter is suitable for:
• Potable water
• Reclaimed water
• Chiller water
• Boiler feed water
• Make-up water
• Condenser water
• Condensate

OPERATION

Transit time flow meters use two transducers that function as both ultrasonic transmitters and receivers. The flow meters operate by alternately transmitting and receiving a frequency-modulated burst of sound energy between the two transducers. The burst is first transmitted in the direction of fluid flow and then against fluid flow. Since sound energy in a moving liquid is carried faster when it travels in the direction of fluid flow (downstream) than it does when it travels against fluid flow (upstream), a differential in the times of flight will occur. The sound’s time-of-flight is accurately measured in both directions and the difference in time-of-flight calculated.
