ULTRAFLOW® 44 DN15-125

Product catalog summary
Overview: The ULTRAFLOW® 44 DN15-125 is an ultrasonic flow sensor designed for thermal energy meters, suitable for cooling and heat/cooling installations. It features a static design, high accuracy, and water resistance, making it ideal for submersion and insulation.
Specifications: The sensor operates with a nominal flow rate (qp) from 1.5 to 100 m³/h, with a large dynamic range and minimal pressure loss. It is compliant with EN 1434 and MID 2014/32/EU standards, designed for water as the medium.
Technical Data: Available in various sizes and configurations, the sensor has metrological class 2 or 3, environmental class C, and operates within 5 to 55 °C. It has an IP68 rating for water ingress protection.
Installation: The sensor can be installed in various orientations without requiring straight inlet or outlet sections unless heavy flow disturbances are present. Maintaining minimum static pressure is crucial to prevent cavitation.
Materials: Wetted parts are made from DZR brass and stainless steel, with thermoplastic components reinforced with glass fiber. The electronics housing is made from polyolefin and polyamide.
Approvals: Approved under various EU directives and standards, including the EMC and LV directives, as a heat and cooling meter.
Electrical Data: Operates on a 3.6 VDC supply, with options for 230 VAC or 24 VAC supply, and includes a backup for short-term power cuts.
Flow Data: Offers a dynamic range of 100:1, with a meter factor varying with the nominal flow rate, ensuring long-term accuracy and stability.
Pressure Loss: A graph indicates minimal pressure drop across different flow rates.
Recommendations: For optimal performance, order with a compatible MULTICAL® calculator for matching serial numbers and ease of adjustment.
Installation Guidelines: Prevent submersion of the meter housing and electronics. Detailed instructions for electrical connections with MULTICAL® systems are provided, including color-coded wiring and the use of Pulse Transmitters and Cable Extender Boxes.
Order Specifications: A table lists type numbers, flow rates, connection sizes, and materials for ordering, along with cable lengths and additional components like Pulse Transmitters and Cable Extender Boxes.
Accessories: Information on available couplings and gaskets for different sizes and pressure ratings, with type numbers for ordering.
Contact Information: Kamstrup A/S contact details are provided for further inquiries and technical support.

Dimensional sketches Note: To achieve the easiest possible adjustment (e.g. during reverification), we recommend to order ULTRAFLOW® 44 together with MULTICAL® 603 or MULTICAL® 803 whereby the flow sensor and the calculator will be delivered with identical serial number. Adjustment of separately delivered ULTRAFLOW® 44 requires individual encryption keys.

Straight inlet ULTRAFLOW® requires neither straight inlet nor outlet to meet the Measuring Instruments Directive (MID) 2014/32/EU, OIML R75:2002 and EN 1434:2015. A straight inlet section is only necessary in case of heavy flow disturbances before the meter. We recommend to follow the guidelines in CEN CR 13582. Operating pressure In order to prevent cavitation, the static pressure at the flow sensor outlet of ULTRAFLOW® 44 must be min. 1.5 bar (1.0 bar for ULTRAFLOW® 44 type 65-4-XXHX-XXX) at qp and min. 2.5 bar (2.0 bar for ULTRAFLOW® 44 type 65-4-XXHX-XXX) at qs. This applies to temperatures...
