One of the advantages of the Portalok 7S ultrasonic flow meter are its proven track record and its thousands of reliable measurements in almost every imaginable clamp on flow application. The flow meter is extremely popular in flow surveys because of its ability to conduct speedy measurements with minimum user knowledge.
What is an Ultrasonic Flowmeter?
An ultrasonic flow meter uses sound waves above human hearing levels to measure flow rates in liquids and gases. There are several ultrasonic flow measurement technologies available in the market which include transit time flowmeters and Doppler meters but the most popular technology by far is the transit time method.
How ultrasonic flow meters work? The answer in a short one minute video by EESIFLO on delta t and transit time technology.
We work with our partner EESIFLO to provide the most comprehensive flow measurement solutions for liquids. EESIFLO is a manufacturer of clamp-on transit time cross-correlation flow meters for liquids. The Ultrasonic Flowmeters will measure volumetric flow rates of any kind of water. Unlike magnetic flowmeters which require minerals to operate, the ultrasonic flow meter manufactured by EESIFLO will measure liquids irrespective of their mineral content. This includes demineralized water (demin water), de-ionized water, ultra pure water, chemically treated water, solvents, acids, oils and any liquid that allows sound waves to pass through them.
EESIFLO’s cross correlation ultrasonic methods also enable the flow meters to work in applications where other ultrasonic flow meters have failed. This is where EESIFLO has excelled with it’s advanced signal processing and correlation techniques which are a great advantage to simple phase shift technologies which are limited to clean water and pipes with perfect surfaces. The ability for the ultrasonic flow meter to measure dirty water e.g. wastewater and sludge make them stand apart in greater usability and wider flow applications.
