In the energy sector, particularly in the oil and gas industry, ultrasonic flow meters are widely used to measure the flow rates of hydrocarbons in pipelines. These meters offer a non-intrusive solution for accurately monitoring oil and gas flows, ensuring precise measurement without the need for cutting into pipelines. The ability to operate in challenging environments, such as high-pressure pipelines, makes ultrasonic flow meters suitable for upstream and downstream applications, providing essential data for process control and optimization.

External clamp ultrasonic flowmeter is a very suitable for pipe full pipe measurement flow meter, with easy installation, non-contact type, can measure the medium flow of large pipe diameter can also be used for measuring the medium that is not easy to contact and observe.

The correct selection of ultrasonic flowmeter can ensure the better use of ultrasonic flowmeter. What kind of ultrasonic flowmeter should be selected should be determined according to the physical and chemical properties of the measured flow medium. Today, flowmeter manufacturers tell you what to pay attention to before choosing ultrasonic flowmeter

Ultrasonic flowmeters are instruments that measure flow by detecting the effect of fluid flow on an ultrasonic beam (or ultrasonic pulse). The ultrasonic flowmeter is mainly composed of an ultrasonic transducer (or an ultrasonic flow sensor composed of a transducer and a measuring tube) and a transducer mounted on the measuring pipe.

The reasonable selection of ultrasonic flowmeter model can ensure the more effective application of ultrasonic flowmeter. The choice of which type of ultrasonic flowmeter should be based on the physical and chemical properties of the measured medium to choose, so that the nominal diameter of the ultrasonic flowmeter, flow range, lining material, electrode material and output current can adapt to the nature of the measured medium and flow measurement requirements.

Ultrasonic flowmeter is a non-contact instrument, so it has the advantages of simple installation and maintenance, and is very popular with customers. However, because of this advantage of ultrasonic flowmeters, it is precisely after a period of use that the signal will be weak.

Ultrasonic flowmeters can generally operate normally for a long time without maintenance in the future. After that, maintenance and daily inspections are required. Not receiving the signal or having a too weak signal are both minor issues. So there’s no need to be surprised if it occurs. Just do the following steps carefully and it will be easy to solve.

When the ultrasonic flowmeter shows unstable signals and inaccurate readings, many users tend to think that there is a problem with the ultrasonic flowmeter sensor. However, this is not always the case. Today, we will introduce to you the reasons why the ultrasonic flowmeter sensor is good but the flow rate is low or there is no flow rate at all.

The installation of ultrasonic flowmeter is relatively simple and fast compared with other meters. However, the flowmeter manufacturer has to remind you that no matter how well the flowmeter is installed, it should also follow the installation requirements during the installation process.

There are significant differences between pipe-type ultrasonic flowmeters and insertable ultrasonic flowmeters in many aspects. The following is a specific analysis of these differences

Let’s first explore what water balance in a sewage treatment plant is: the balance of the total inflow and outflow of the sewage treatment plant. Nowadays, the issue of imbalance in the inflow and outflow of sewage treatment plants has increasingly drawn the attention of relevant regulatory authorities and various sewage operation companies. The imbalance between the influent and effluent water volumes is extremely severe, which is influenced by factors such as the sewage and sludge treatment process, the amount of reused water, the level of equipment, and the installation position of flow meters.

Ultrasonic flowmeter in view of different installation methods, then the requirements for installation are also different, today the flowmeter manufacturer Aister meter mainly for the installation requirements of different installation methods of ultrasonic flowmeter, for you to make the following explanation.

The selection of ultrasonic flowmeter should pay attention to several problems

Ultrasonic flowmeters are flowmeters that measure flow by detecting the effect of fluid movement on ultrasonic beams (or ultrasonic pulses). Ultrasonic flowmeters can all be installed outside the pipe and measure flow in a non-contact manner. Their surface cost is basically independent of the size of the pipe diameter being measured, making them excellent instruments for measuring the flow of large pipes.

Under the premise of fixed installation conditions, ultrasonic flowmeter improves the signal processing capacity and diagnostic capacity of the flowmeter itself, and can effectively reduce noise. Under normal circumstances, the measuring accuracy of the flowmeter is very important.

Ultrasonic flowmeter is cost-effective, easy to install and maintain. Today, flowmeter manufacturer Aister meter makes the following guidance for you on the installation of ultrasonic flowmeter.

Advantages of ultrasonic flow meter

When installing the ultrasonic flow meter, it is necessary to determine the installation position first, so that the ultrasonic flow can be better measured. Today, flowmeter manufacturer Aister meter mainly makes the following explanation for the probe position selection of ultrasonic flowmeter, everyone remember to collect.

When the user chooses the sewage flow meter and the tap water flow meter, I believe that many users will think of the ultrasonic flow meter, so why is the ultrasonic flow meter so popular?

Ultrasonic flowmeters are well-suited for measuring the flow of clean liquids in a variety of industrial applications. Clean liquids, such as water, chemicals, or other non-viscous fluids, allow ultrasonic signals to propagate through the medium more effectively, resulting in accurate flow measurements. Here are some considerations for using ultrasonic flowmeters with clean liquids:

Ultrasonic flowmeter installation, easy maintenance, cost-effective. However, no matter how good the flowmeter is, it also needs special attention in daily use. Otherwise, it will affect the measuring accuracy and service life of the flowmeter. Today, flowmeter manufacturer Aister meter mainly explains the maintenance and maintenance of ultrasonic flowmeters as follows.
