SONICMAX UL63 Ultrasonic Clamp-on Flowmeter OUTLINE SONICMAX UL63 is the ultrasonic flowmeter of the time flight system which combined the highly efficient converter (UFC3) with the clamp-on sensor (UFS6). Three kinds of sensors without direct contact to fluid allow wide range flow measurement of pipe size from 5 mm to mm. A sensor mounted on the sensor rail and a sensor cable realized simple installation on pipe and easy maintenance. The highly efficient converter corresponding to a multi-sensor can measure two lines or double line measurement by one set. Moreover, the digital processing and substantial status diagnostic function enabled stable and high precision measurement for low velocity flow. Furthermore, flameproof () type etc. in combination with a field type converter (UFC3F) is also available. () Preparing FEATURES The non-contact measurement system where the sensor is installed on the exterior surface of pipe eliminates the generation of particles, and mixing of metal ions completely. For this reason, this method is the best for flow measurement of, such as pure water and a chemical liquid. A two-line measurement is possible by one converter. Signal processing system enables stable and precise measurement for low velocity flow. High accuracy measurement of ±% of indicated values (Connection: 5mm or more, Velocity:.5m/s or more) is realized. Sensor part is applicable to pipe size from 5mm to mm by three kinds of sensors (small / medium / large). Easy mounting and easy maintenance are realized because sensor is integrated on the mounting rail and greasing can be done keeping sensor distance fixed. A terminal box at the end of sensor rail allows easy wiring and cable connection by using composite sensor cable. Blue dot matrix LCD (with backlight) is used for the display (8 6 dots, 59 3mm). A multi-line indication by-3-lines of the measured values, and a real-time trend indication, etc. are provided. A quick setup function allows easy change of flow range, pulse rate, etc. A touch panel system by an infrared sensor allows you to alter the settings without removing the cover of the conversion section.

SONICMAX Ultrasonic Clamp-on Flowmeter UL63 MEASURING PRINCIPLE As shown in Fig. the ultrasonic is transferred from A to B and B to A in turn with a angle of ψ. The required duration of transfer of two directions is different when measuring medium is moving from upstream to downstream. The duration of transfer is expressed by the following formula. tab = L / (Co + VmCOS ψ) tba = L / (Co VmCOS ψ) Where L : Distance between A and B Vm : Average velocity of medium Co : Sonic speed in stable medium tab, tba : Duration of transfer of Ultrasonic from A to B and B to A By measuring the difference of the transfer duration, the average velocity of medium can be calculated. The calculation is done by the following formula: Vmcos ψ = L / tab L/tBA ψ = L (tba tab) / (tba tab) Vm = L (tba tab) / (cos ψ tba tab) The distance between A and B (L) and the angle (ψ) are known, and the average velocity Vm is mathematically calculated. Calculating average velocity Vm and cross-sectional area of pipe, the result is indicated and transmitted as the output.

Vm ψ ψ L Fig. Measurement principle PRECAUTION FOR USE ) To ensure accurate flow rate measurement, straight pipes are required D or more in the upstream and 5D or more in the downstream of the sensor mounting position if there is a 9- degree elbow or a reducer. Furthermore, separate it from a pump 5D or more as a flow pass. (D = nominal piping diameter) Consult us if there is something to hamper the flow pass. ) Mount the sensor to the piping which is always filled with liquid. 3) The valves for throttling which are not used in the fully opened condition, install to the downstream side of the sensor. ) When installing outdoors for use, it is recommended to attach a waterproof cover to the sensor in order to prevent deterioration of sensor grease. Specification is subject to change without notice.
