SONIC-PRO HYBRID ULTRASONIC FLOWMETERS
FeaturES
User-selectable Doppler or Transit Time operating modes for measurement of both clean and dirty fluids
The meter can be factory configured for easy installation
Custom quality metric algorithms and DSP technology for reliable, high accuracy measurements
To allow for changes in the fluid’s particle count, SonicPro monitors the signal gain and employs an
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) algorithm that periodically adjusts the gain, maintaining the optimum power levelSmart external communication with simple, intuitive, Sonic-Pro software
Portable, rugged carrying case for easy transportation between applications
2 year factory warranty
The Sonic-Pro Flow Meters can measure fluid flow in virtually any fluid in which sound waves can travel. The Ultrasonic Flow Meters are considered "hybrid" because they can measure fluid flow using either the Doppler or Transit Time methods. The Sonic-Pro ultrasonic flow meter's sound transducers are clamped to the outside of the pipe wall and include no moving parts. This method of flow measurement is safe, non-intrusive and very easy to service.
Pipe Sizes
T-Track fitting allows for small pipe diameter capabilities (1/2”-24”)
Pipe size range ½”-100”
Fluid
Virtually any acoustically conductive fluid, Dirty or Clean
Doppler Mode:
Requires particles to be present in the flow stream to “reflect” the sound waves. (ie. Air bubbles, sand, etc.)
Operational Environment:
fluid contains .02%-15% (200-150,000 ppm) of particles.
Transit Time Mode:
Requires relatively “clean” fluid to enable the sound waves to complete a circuit.
Operational Environment:
0%-10% (0-100,000 ppm) of particles.
Accuracy
+/- 1% of rate in Transit-Time mode greater than 1 ft/sec fluid velocity
+/- 0.01 ft/sec in Transit-Time mode less than 1ft/sec fluid velocity
+/- 2% of rate in Doppler mode greater than 5 ft/sec fluid velocity
+/- 0.10 ft/sec in Doppler mode less than 5 ft/sec velocity
