1. Easy to install
Clip-on installation, no pipe cutting required. This is very different from traditional flow devices. The user simply clips the flow sensor to the pipe surface. Then the ultrasonic flowmeter can detect the flow rate by ultrasonic wave, and then automatically calculate the flow rate value, flow accumulator, etc.
No pipe cutting means no damage to the pipe. So as long as the pipes are in good condition, the installation on the flowmeter will not provide the possibility of leakage. This advantage is more suitable for strong acid, strong alkali, poisoning, corrosive liquid, etc.
Traditional mechanical flow meters must use moving parts to "sense" flow. This will destroy the stream state. At the same time, with the use of moving parts, flow accuracy decreases. With use, the moving parts deteriorate and the user must replace the flow measuring device with a new one.
Ultrasonic flow meters have no moving parts and do not need to be in contact with the fluid, so there is no pressure loss. No pressure loss means you don't need to do pressure compensation, which saves the cost of the pressure transmitter.
2. Wide turndown ratio
Turndown ratio is a very important technical indicator in flow measurement. It is used to refer to the flow range and is usually determined by the principles of flow technology.
Ultrasonic flow meters are usually 100:1, and some models have turndown ratios up to 500:1.
3. Low flow start
Low flow measurement has been a problem since flow measurement became available. For small size pipes, one can develop special flow devices for testing. However, due to its particularity, its price is always high, and it is not easy to generalize to general applications.
Ultrasonic flow meters can provide very low flow measurement for process control. Henan Junyuan Automation Equipment Co., Ltd. has developed various types of ultrasonic flow meters for low flow measurement.
4. Higher precision
The long-term accuracy of ultrasonic flowmeters is proven to be 1%, sometimes 0.5%. Of course, if the clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter cannot meet your extreme requirements for accuracy, the tube and insertion ultrasonic flowmeter is a better choice. .
5. Low power design
Ultrasonic technology offers the possibility to develop low-power ultrasonic flowmeters. This feature plays an important role in ultrasonic water meters and ultrasonic heat meters. Built-in 3.6V battery, can work for 6-10 years.
6. The portable ultrasonic flowmeter is convenient to measure
Portable ultrasonic flowmeters have emerged as the times require due to their low power consumption and limited measurement methods. Portable ultrasonic flow meters provide great convenience for flow testing and flow measurement. It's a powerful tool. The portable ultrasonic flowmeter has a built-in high-performance lithium battery, which can be used continuously for up to 24 hours.
7. HVAC energy management to reduce your costs
Ultrasonic flow meters provide advanced and accurate energy measurement and are widely used for water energy monitoring in heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) management. The flow sensor is combined with the energy sensor to form an energy meter without damaging the pipeline. High precision and stable performance help reduce energy costs.
8. Low cost of use
The first impression of many users may be that advanced flow meters are always expensive. The first check may be higher than a mechanical flow meter. But with installation fees, service life and maintenance fees added, its total cost is not high, or even lower.
