Operation and Performance
Fluid Types
Liquids: acoustically conductive fluids, including most clean liquids and many liquids with small amounts of entrained solids or gas bubbles
Flow Measurement
Patented Correlation Transit-TimeTM mode
Pipe Sizes
Standard: 0.5 to 24 in. (15 to 600 mm)
Optional: up to 300 in. (7500 mm) available upon request
Pipe Wall Thickness
Up to 3 in. (76.2 mm)
Pipe Material
All metals and most plastics
Accuracy
- ±1% of reading (2in/50mm or greater pipe sizes)
- ±2% of reading (0.5in/15mm to <2in/50mm pipe sizes)
Installation assumes a fully developed, symmetrical flow profile (typically 10 pipe diameters upstream and 5 pipe diameters downstream of straight pipe run). Final installation accuracy is a function of multiple factors including fluid, temperature range, pipe centricity among other factors.
Repeatability
±0.2% of reading
Range (Bidirectional)
0.1 to 40 ft/s (0.03 to 12.19 m/s)
Response Time
Up to 2 Hz
Measurement Parameters
Velocity, Volume, Mass, Energy, Total Flow
Channels
1 or 2 channels
