Ultrasonic Water Metering

The american water works association standard awwa c750 10 for clamp on ultrasonic meters requires the ultrasonic meter to have 1 percent accuracy.

Ultrasonic water metering.

Learn all about ultrasonic water flow meters for monitoring inventory and process control. Ultrasonic flow meters are inferential meters that uses ultrasonic technology to measure the velocity of an acoustically conductive liquid moving through it. Water meter sensor ultrasonic water tank liquid depth level meter sensor with temperature display for indoor water tank up to 100m 2 2 out of 5 stars 5 74 29 74. Flowiq 3101 is an ultrasonic smart water meter suited for industrial or commercial use.

Using ultrasonic transducers the flow meter can measure the average velocity along the path of an emitted beam of ultrasound by averaging the difference in measured transit time between the pulses of ultrasound propagating into and against the direction of the flow. Transit time measures the time differential between signals sent upstream and downstream. Comprehensive portfolio for gases liquids and steam. An ultrasonic flow meter is a type of flow meter that measures the velocity of a fluid with ultrasound to calculate volume flow.

High temperature and cryogenic versions variants for high pressure and higher viscosities. Ultrasonic water meter qalcosonic w1 is designed for accurate measurement of cold and hot water consumption. Ultrasonic water meters use one or more ultrasonic transducer to send ultrasonic sound waves through the fluid to determine the velocity of the water. The flow sensor is made of metal and the meter house is fully watertight.

For process and utility applications energy and custody transfer ct measurements. In households apartment buildings and small commercial premises. Static method of water flow measurement no moving parts high accuracy calculation of water consumption eliminates measuring deviations caused by sand. Since the cross sectional area of the meter body is a fixed and known value when the velocity of water is detected the volume of water passing through the meter can be calculated with very high.

We were looking at non intrusive meters and that narrowed the field to clamp on ultrasonic meters he said. Doppler shift and transit time. Aquarion selected an ultrasonic meter from flexim americas. With pinpoint accuracy up to 16 years lifetime and integrated communication.

Neptune s innovative lead free water meters are built to meet the water meter needs of water utilities across north america. There are two types of ultrasonic flow meter technologies.
