PRINCIPLE of OPERATION

FEATURES

The Sultan Flow measurement system 

operates by transmitting an acoustic 

wave signal from the transducer 

towards the liquid being monitored. The 

reflected signal or echo is received by 

the transducer and processed by the 

amplifier. The time between transmission 

of the signal and reception of the echo 

is measured, and using the speed of 

sound through air, the distance from the 

transducer to the liquid being monitored 

is calculated. 
The Sultan Flow system uses 

sophisticated software to locate and 

track the correct echo without being 

affected by echos from fixed objects 

or changes in the liquid surface. When 

the liquid level or surface conditions 

change, the system adopts preselected 

signal tracking parameters. In the event 

of a total loss of signal, the system 

adopts pre selected signal recovery 

routines to relocate the correct liquid 

level. The system employs automatic 

gain control to compensate for changes 

in echo amplitude due to changes in 

environmental conditions. The system 

has continuous current, voltage and 

relay outputs. These outputs can be 

programmed for fail safe conditions in 

the event of a loss of signal or system 

malfunction. The factory settings 

are based on years of experience in 

acoustically difficult applications. This 

typically means that the system can 

be installed and made operational in a 

minimum of time.
