Ultrasonic Flow Meters

20+ Years Manufacturing Experience

What are the advantages of Ultrasonic water meter in comparison with Mechanical water meter?

A. Structure comparison, ultrasonic water meter without clogging.

Ultrasonic water meter DN15 – DN300, reflect hydrodynamic structure, no installation requirements of straight pipe.

Mechanical water meter adopts the impeller rotation to measure flow, and the pipe flow resistance device leads to its low flow ability, being easy to jam, and more severe wear.

B. Beginning flux comparison, ultrasonic smart flow meter can measure all sizes of flow, no matter of big or small one. 

The low starting flow of ultrasonic water meters, greatly reduces the metering leakage phenomenon of small flow, makes water metering loss to a minimum.

C. Pressure loss comparison, the energy saving effect of ultrasonic water meter is obvious.

Low pressure loss of smart ultrasonic water meter greatly reduces the power loss and the energy consumption of water supply.

D. Measurement functions comparison, ultrasonic water meter is intelligent.

Ultrasonic water meter smart can judge the flow direction, can separately measure positive and reverse flow value, and measure flow velocity, instantaneous flow value, cumulative flow value, and record working time, down time and other parameters.

Mechanical water meter cannot judge reverse installation, which can result in measuring loss, providing the opportunity for illegal water, and can only measure cumulative flow value.

E. The meter reading and communication comparison

Most mechanical water meter adopts mechanical principle of counting, no power supply requirements, but at the same time also brings that its output cannot be configured to fulfill the computer management of implement data acquisition, and to take new technology applications such as wireless meter reading.

Ultra sonic flow meter adopts batteries to support power, which can work continuously for six years and be configured with multiple outputs: 4-20mA, pulse, RS485, NB-Iot, Lora, GPRS, automatic meter reading system and wireless handwritten device.

F. Precision comparison

Due to ultrasonic water meter has no worn parts structure, as long as the tube inner diameter is unchanged, its precision will remain the same.

Because of easy worn parts on the structure of mechanical water meter, the degree of wear and tear is gradually increased over time, leading to a less accuracy, and increasing the measurement error.

The ultrasonic flow meter has many advantages such as low starting flow, small pressure loss, low consume, operation  reliable, fully functional, and so on. It has good potential application of market.

Ultrasonic flowmeter is applied widely in industrial measurement field for the two advantages, non-contact and installation and maintenance with ease.

Following the development of digital processing technology and the components of the processors, digital ultrasonic flow meter will become more superior.
