Series 5000Ultrasonic Compound Flowmeter Features
Series 5000 flowmeters are employed for flow measurement in open channels and partially filled pipes. Series 5000 flowmeters feature wide rangeability with little or no head loss depending upon the configuration. Depth and velocity measurements are calculated in order to compute flow rates by using the Continuity Equation. Design Parameters TRUE CHORDAL VELOCITY MEASUREMENTS:The Series 5000 makes use of transit-time ultrasonic technology as the prime method for accurately determining instantaneous fluid velocity thereby providing predictable accurate velocity measurement throughout changing flow conditions. WIDE RANGEABILITY: Series 5000 flowmeters will accurately measure flow over an unusually wide range by incorporating a small flume or weir for low flow measurement. ELIMINATES SUBMERGENCE EFFECTS: The use of the Continuity Equation negates the effects of backwater, stagnation and surcharging in a high depth flow regime. NO HEAD LOSS: Series 5000 flowmeters require little or no head loss for operation. In most cases, the flowmeter induces no losses beyond the piping loss. EASILY INSTALLED: Series 5000 flowmeters can be easily installed in either new or existing construction with minimum mechanical effort. BI-DIRECTIONAL CAPABILITY: It should be noted that since chordal velocity measurements are bi-directional in a compound flow regime, each meter is capable of bi-directional operation. |
