SmartFlow Mobile™ Ultrasonic Technology

SmartFlow Mobile™ meters combine flexibility and accuracy for the first time. Measure flow rates to an accuracy of <±1% of actual flow without needing to cut pipes to install meters.

SmartFlow Mobile™ is operated according to the ultrasonic transit time method.

Ultrasonic waves are transmitted and received diagonally across the flow stream. The flow velocity is calculated from the difference (Δt) of the transit times.

Compared to the Doppler measurement process, the transit time method is more accurate and reliable gives a response time of 0.2 sec (high speed mode).
