Ultrasonic Flow Sensor Heat Meter | GF U3000

Ultrasonic Flow Sensor Heat Meter – Overview

The U3000 provides various options for high-accuracy measurement for permanent ultrasonic Clamp-On flow metering. Options are available for high-accuracy measurement, power, communication, pipe dimension, data storage & export. It can be customised to almost any application need. The type U3000 V2 Heatmeter (HM) is an ultrasonic permanent clamp-on heatmeter / energy meter / BTU meter. Additionally, it is equipped with Pt100 temperature sensors to calculate the energy of a heat-exchanging system. The ‘Clamp-On’ concept allows for easy installation without process disruption. Compact, robust and reliable. Designed for long-term use in industrial applications. It can be used on PVDF, ABS, PVC, CPVC, PP, PE, PB-Instaflex, iron and steel pipes. Processes can be monitored directly by a higher-level system via 4 to 20 mA, Modbus, pulse or frequency output.
