The AquaTrans UTX878 ultrasonic flow
transmitter combines the simplicity of a loop-powered meter
installation with proven, advanced clamp-on ultrasonic flow
transmitter technology. It provides customers with an
economical solution for flow measurement in pipes up to 8 in
(200 mm).
Loop Powered
Loop-powered measurement devices have increased in
popularity in the recent past because of the simplicity of
their installation. A single cable to the meter carries both
power to the meter and flow information back to the control
system. New low-powered ultrasonic transducer technology,
coupled with smart-microprocessor power management, allow the
AquaTrans UTX878 to function as a loop-powered meter.
Two-Channel Model
An optional second channel provides the capability to
measure flow at a single point to obtain two-path averaging of
the flow measurement for increased accuracy.
Transit-Time Flow Measurement Technique
The Correlation Transit-Time™ technique uses a pair of
transducers with each transducer sending and receiving coded
ultrasonic signals through the fluid. When the fluid is
flowing, signal transit-time in the downstream direction is
shorter than in the upstream direction; the difference between
these transit-times is proportional to the flow velocity. The
AquaTrans UTX878 measures the time difference and uses
programmed pipe parameters to determine flow rate and
direction.
