Principle: transit time difference method*2

Applications

Flow measurement of ultra-pure water in semiconductor manufacturing plants, paint

and coating material in painting process, water in air-conditioning systems, drainage

Ultrasonic Flowmeter for Air

‧ No projections inside pipe—no pressure loss
‧ Abundant applicable pipe diameters

Principle: transit time difference method*2

Applications

Visualization of the compressed air use, early detection of air leakage

Principle
*1: T ransit time difference method with parallel
three measuring paths
Three parallel paths are arranged
at selected positions to reduce
the adverse effect of flow profile.
By measuring the flow with the
three paths simultaneously, and
averaging them, the flowmeter
obtains an accurate flow rate.
