Can an Ultrasonic Flowmeter Be Integrated with a PLC or DCS System?
Yes. Ultrasonic flowmeters can be easily integrated into PLC or DCS systems through standard industrial signal outputs and communication protocols. Most ultrasonic flowmeters support multiple output options, such as 4–20 mA analog output, pulse output, relay (alarm) output, and RS485 digital comm...Read more -
Installation Precautions for Electromagnetic Flowmeters
Installation shall be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with applicable standards and safety regulations. The pipe must be completely filled with liquid during operation. Electromagnetic flowmeters are not suitable for partially filled pipes. Ensure sufficient upstream and downstream...Read more -
What straight pipe length is required?
The required straight pipe length is critical for ensuring stable flow profiles and accurate measurement with a clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter. In general, it is recommended to provide at least 10D of straight pipe upstream and 5D downstream, where D is the pipe’s inner diameter. This allows the f...Read more -
Does pipe scaling or lining affect accuracy?
Yes, pipe scaling or lining can significantly affect measurement accuracy in clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters. Scaling, corrosion, or thick internal linings change the way ultrasonic signals travel through the pipe wall and the fluid. These conditions can attenuate or scatter the ultrasonic signal,...Read more -

Can clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters measure high-temperature or high-pressure fluids?
Yes. Clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters can measure high-temperature and high-pressure fluids, because the sensors are mounted outside the pipe and do not contact the process fluid. However, there are practical limits depending on the sensor type and application. High-Temperature Capability High-temp...Read more -
How does pipe condition (scaling, corrosion, or lining) affect accuracy?
Pipe condition has a direct impact on the accuracy of a clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter, because the ultrasonic signal must pass through the pipe wall and into the liquid. Issues like scaling, corrosion, or lining can weaken or distort this signal. 1. Scaling or Fouling Scale or deposits absorb and...Read more
