Handheld instruments
for the most challenging industrial environments with minimal installation complexity and costs. The new Portable Ultrasonic meter was designed to be deployed easily to measure flow on demand, without difficult installations or process interruptions.

The hand-held unit is encased in a rugged IP67 housing and works with the same three interchangeable transducers as the full-sized meter, which make it suitable for measurements on a wide range of metal and plastic pipe materials on pipes from ½” to 48” in diameter. A simple menu allows for fast and easy programming of pipe diameter, pipe material, liquid types, and measurement units. In addition to providing a standard 4- 20mA/0-5V analogue output, optional Modbus RTU and HART communications provide instantaneous flow rate, volume, total, run hours, and diagnostic
information. An intuitive on-screen user interface with a data logger enables operators to view flow reports or download logs for use in other programs. Data management storage of 12.5 million data points with logger
software for data viewing and
reporting. Through the use of an integrated USB-C port, the PTFM 6.1 seamlessly expands its input and output capability to meet future requirements without replacing the whole meter. The Greyline Portable Transit Time Flow Meter offers the versatility to meet changing flow measurement needs today, tomorrow, and into the future. The flow meters use the transit time
ultrasonic principle of measurement that works by measuring the flight difference for ultrasonic sound pulses transmitted from one transducer to another. The time between transmitted and received signals is precisely measured by the flow meters. Both Ultrasonic Flow Meters are ideal for measuring the flow rate of clean, non-aerated fluids in full pipes such as water, chemicals, and fuel oils with highly accurate and reliable flow measurement.

PORTABLE SENSOR DISPLAY FOR STRAIN BRIDGE SENSORS
variables like pressure and torque. Until now, the industry has lacked one product able to serve all these different sensor applications, which is why Mantracourt developed the next-gen PSDS device. Delivering improved flexibility and performance compared to current models, the new PSDS device provides manufacturers with a portable transducer readout for load, force, pressure, torque and other strain bridge sensors. “The new PSDS device gives sensor

manufacturers a product that they can buy, off-the-shelf, and easily customise for the desired application,” explains Brett James, design manager at Mantracourt. “It’s also much more user-friendly than our previous model, with an entirely redesigned menu structure and keypad. “Our previous PSD device, which has been in service for nearly 20 years, is generally regarded as the industry standard but where it only had two calibration ranges, the new PSDS has six. This means
Sensing and measurement specialist, Mantracourt has released the first of its next generation of products, the PSD-HSBK portable sensor display. Designed to serve sensor manufacturers, like load cell manufacturers and integrators, the new PSDS device offers several key advantages over current models including enhanced calibration functions, OEM configuration toolkit and the ability to read a variety of Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS) templates.
train bridge measurement is found in a wide range of industrial sensors, such as load cells, to measure forces like tension and compression, or in other sensors measuring
that users can see a much wider variety of readings directly on the screen when using the PSDS,” adds James. As well as taking advantage of the new
in-device functions, users of the new PSDS will also be able to download the free PSD toolkit from Mantracourt’s website. This can be used to aid data analysis by recording live and historical data, and facilitate ongoing technical support. The PSD toolkit allows users to overlay their data over time against calibration data to see how it sits compared to the specified minimum and maximum. This can be used to increase insight and identify potential faults in the system. Furthermore, the toolkit has alarm capabilities so, when it is connected to the PSD, if any recorded readings are outside the specified acceptable range, it produces and audio and visual alarm to alert users. The PSD toolkit also gives users full
control of the PSDS’s interface, meaning that manufacturers can customise devices for any given application. This allows them to offer different user interfaces for different customer bases, all from the same original device.
