Non-invasive measurement, therefore wear-resistant and not disturbed by sludge and solid particles. Easy
installation and commissioning without pipework and downtimes.

In this case, a non-invasive, clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter is the

easiest and most suitable solution. Installation and commissioning
does not require any modifications to the pipework and can be done
on the filled pipe without any downtimes. The measurement is not
affected by sludge and solid particles in the conveyed water, unlike
conventional wetted measuring systems where such particles cause
clogging and wear.

Advantages…………………………………………….

Wear-free, non-invasive measurement

The housing and cables of the robust, waterproof
ultrasonic transducers are made of stainless
steel (standard version is IP65, but IP68 versions
are also available).
Fast installation and commissioning of the meter. No downtimes
are required and it can be installed onto the filled pipe.
Measurements are possible on nominal diameters of 6 to
6500 mm.
High precision even under unfavourable measuring conditions.
Not disturbed by deposits
Robust measuring system: Solidly built transmitters, transducers
and connectors
Paired, calibrated ultrasonic transducers, with calibration
