Technical specification

Technical specification Function Measurement principle In order to measure the flow of a fluid in a pipe, ultrasonic signals are used, employing the transit time difference principle. Ultrasonic signals are emitted by a transducer installed on the pipe and received by a second transducer. These signals are emitted alternately in the flow direction and against it. As the fluid in which the signals propagate is flowing, the transit time of the ultrasonic signals in the flow direction is shorter than against the flow direction. The transit time difference, ∆t, is measured and allows the...

Technical specification Number of sound paths The number of sound paths is the number of transits of the ultrasonic signal through the fluid in the pipe. Depending on the number of sound paths, the following methods of installation exist: • reflection arrangement The number of sound paths is even. Both of the transducers are mounted on the same side of the pipe. Correct positioning of the transducers is easier. • diagonal arrangement The number of sound paths is odd. Both of the transducers are mounted on opposite sides of the pipe. In the case of a high signal attenuation by the fluid,...
