Panametrics PT9-SYS-1C-1-F-0-SC-TG-C48 Portable Liquid Ultrasonic Flowmeter

Operation and Performance

Fluid Types

Liquids: acoustically conductive fluids, including most clean liquids and many liquids with small amounts of entrained solids or gas bubbles

Flow Measurement

Patented Correlation Transit-TimeTM mode

Pipe Sizes

Standard: 0.5 to 24 in. (15 to 600 mm)

Optional: up to 300 in. (7500 mm) available upon request

Pipe Wall Thickness

Up to 3 in. (76.2 mm)

Pipe Material

All metals and most plastics

Accuracy

• ±1% of reading (2in/50mm or greater pipe sizes)
• ±2% of reading (0.5in/15mm to <2in/50mm pipe sizes)

Installation assumes a fully developed, symmetrical flow profile (typically 10 pipe diameters upstream and 5 pipe diameters downstream of straight pipe run). Final installation accuracy is a function of multiple factors including fluid, temperature range, pipe centricity among other factors.

Repeatability

±0.2% of reading
