Sierra Innova Sonic 210i Portable Ultrasonic Flow Meter

The handheld battery powered 210i is ideal for precisely measuring a wide range of liquid flows in pipes up to 236 inches (6000 mm).

Utilizing universal transit-time technology the 210i portable, hand-held flow meter measures the time it takes an ultrasonic signal to travel a known distance with the flow stream and another signal travelling against the flow stream, determining the velocity of the fluid being measured. The 210i measurement is independent of fluid conductivity to allow a wider applicability compared to magnetic meters.

Common applications include:

• Checking other flow meters
• Flow and usage audits
• Leak detection in piping systems
• Cooling and heating fluid measurements
• Automated process control
• Water and wastewater measurements
• Monitoring and controlling of HVAC systems
• Fuel and oil consumption measurements
• Offshore applications

Features:

• One meter for a wide range of pipe sizes from 2 to 236 inches (50.8 to 6000 mm)
• Fully field-portable, lightweight, and totally self-contained flow measurement package with 11.1 VDC rechargeable lithium-ion battery (continuous operation for up to 10 hours)
• Clamp-on sensors require no pipe cutting or process interruption, no plant shut down, and are a hygienic measurement leading to lower installation and labour cost.
• Two 12-inch magnetic transducer racks for easy attachment to magnetic pipes with flexibility to be  moved to smaller pipes without tools.
