ultrasonic flowmeters are designed for
measurement of:
•
Volume flow rate
•
Total volume
•
Sound velocity in the media
SITRANS F US SONOFLO
®
ultrasonic flowmeters measure flow in standard volumetric and mass
flow units. Measurement is independent of changes in liquid temperature, density, pressure and
conductivity.
A time of flight flowmeter is designed for use on single phase liquids.
SONO 3000 measures with a high accuracy (better than ±0,5% of reading over a wide measuring
range).
The sensor has been approved according to the EC Directive on the Pressure Equipment 97/23/EC
of 29 May 1997 asssed to fluid in group 1, classified in category III, and designed according to
prEN13480.
1.1 Precision measuring
system
The ultrasonic flowmeter is a precision measuring system that is "user friendly", but must be
installed in accordance with the instructions given in this handbook.
1.2 Handling
The sensor should be handled with care. Impact and shock can damage the piezeoelectric crystals
located in the transducers.
