ASIONIC® - TX22 : 24 VDC Current Loop Powered Two wire Ultrasonic Flow Meter
Working Principle
An ultrasonic flow meter is a type of flow meter that measures the velocity of a fluid with ultrasound to calculate volume flow. Using ultrasonic transducers, the flow meter can measure the average velocity along the path of an emitted beam of ultrasound, by averaging the difference in measured transit time between the pulses of ultrasound propagating into and against the direction of the flow or by measuring the frequency shift from the Doppler effect.
Ultrasonic flow meters are affected by the acoustic properties of the fluid and can be impacted by temperature, density, viscosity and suspended particulates depending on the exact flow meter. They vary greatly in purchase price but are often inexpensive to use and maintain because they do not use moving parts, unlike mechanical flow meters.
Product Description
Electronet series ASIONIC® - TX22 are micro-controller based Two Wire Full Bore Type ultrasonic flow transmitters specially used for various industrial applications.
These flow transmitters accurately measure the flow rate of conductive/ non conductive liquids in closed pipes. Due to its simple and rigid design, the flow transmitter is an obstruction-less and maintenance-free instrument in place of conventional mechanical flow measuring device. The use of 'Transit Time' technology offers highest ability and better measuring accuracy in the form of electrical signal 4-20 mA DC linearly proportional to volumetric flow.
The instrument is based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. A magnetic field is generated by the instrument in the flow tube. The fluid flowing through this magnetic field generates a voltage that is proportional to the flow velocity and corresponding electrical output is provided with respect to measuring voltage.
