FLOWMETRIX - Model SAFSONIC F -Safsonic F Time Of Flight Flowmeter

The Safsonic F clamp-on flowmeter utilises ultrasonic technology for the accurate measurement of clean or opaque liquids in full pipes. The principle of measurement, Ultrasonic Time Difference Correlation, more commonly known as Transit Time or Time of Flight, is based on the theory that sound waves are affected by a flowing medium. Measurements are taken by penetrating the pipe with an ultrasound signal by means of two ultrasonic transducers, each having a turn to act as a transmitter and receiver. The transit time of the sound waves in both upstream and downstream directions of the flow are monitored with the resulting time difference being directly proportional to the flow velocity. This process is controlled and closely monitored by the remote, microprocessor based display unit which returns the calculated data in user selected units of measurement.
