Ease of use and reduced costs drive flow meter developments


I


t has been a busy start in 2013 for Dynasonics, with two new flow measuring systems. First up is the clamp-on flow and energy meter TFX Ultra, which provides accurate and repeatable flow measurement readings for full pipe liquid


applications such as cooling lines, grey water flows, water distribution and processes where system shutdown is impossible. The unit is designed to simply clamp on to the


outside of an existing pipe, reducing installation time and material costs. There is no need to shut down the process for installation or maintenance, therefore the TFX Ultra can be installed and fully operational in minutes. With no moving parts, there is no mechanical wear - no repair kits or replacement parts are ever needed.


The TFX Ultra features a rugged, compact aluminium enclosure, easy-to-read digital display, bi-directional flow measurement, and a totaliser featuring forward, reverse and net total, and Modbus communications. It offers an optional Ethernet connection as well as a USB programing port.


Configure, calibrate, troubeshoot With ease of operation a key component in designing the Series TFX Ultra, Windows- based software utility UltraLink is available and compatible with all Dynasonics transit time flow meters to allow users to easily configure, calibrate, and troubleshoot with a notebook PC. The company’s second new launch is the DXN
