Ultrasonic Flowmeter

Altosonic V ultrasonic flowmeter is a high precision device for custody transfer of petroleum, petroleum products and liquefied gas. It is certified according to OIML R 117. The Altosonic V utilizes transit-time differential measurements.

Features and Benefits:

High measuring accuracy & repeatability:

• Accuracy: ± 0.15% of measured value
• Repeatability: 0.04% band
• Viscosity independent (Q/v = 1:1000)
• Negligible effect of distorted flow profiles and swirl

High reliability:

• Multiple beams ensure redundancy and validation of results
• Redundant electronics
• Internal diagnostics

Multi-measurement purposes:

• Standard volumetric flow rate and totalization
• Additional information on Volume 15°C / 60°F (acc. to API), mass flow, reference density and VCF calculation possible with external transmitters

Low capital cost:

• Large sizes available. High turndown ratio reduces the number of parallel flowlines i.e. meters
• System includes sensor and flow processor
• No strainers required
• Long economic life
• Easy, low cost installation
• Many options to suit wide range of (transfer) metering needs
• Bi-directional flow measurement possible

Low operational costs:

• No change re-routing to different meter on changing products
• No re-calibration when changing products
• Negligible pressure drop, saving on extra pump capacity, and minimizing flow problems

Low maintenance costs:

• No (mechanical) moving parts. No wear.
• No need for periodical re-calibrations
• Rugged and reliable design
