Accurately measure the flow
rate of clean, non-aerated liquids like water, chemicals, and
oils in full pipes. Ultrasonic transducers mount on the outside
of a pipe without shutting down flow. Flow rate is displayed
on the large, backlit display along with totalizer and signal
strength. Use the built-in control relays for flow alarms or
flow proportionate pulse. Connect the isolated 4-20mA output
to PLC's or controllers.
The
TTFM 1.0 works on a wide range of pipe sizes and materials including
carbon steel, stainless steel, ductile iron, cast iron, PVC,
PVDF, fiberglass, copper, brass, aluminum and pipes with bonded
liners including epoxy, rubber and Teflon.
The TTFM 1.0 Transit Time Flowmeter operates by
measuring the transit time or time of flight
for ultrasonic sound pulses transmitted from one transducer
to another. Depending on the mounting configuration, the signal
may cross the pipe once, twice or four times. To measure flow
the transit time is compared between ultrasonic signals travelling
upstream and downstream.
