| Installation | Ultrasonic measuring body installed in the pipeline. |
|---|---|
| Mechanical selection | DN, pressure class, flange standard and installation length. |
| Fluid data | Acoustic suitability, temperature and minimum/normal/maximum flow. |
| Material selection | Body and wetted materials selected for compatibility with the fluid. |
| Performance and protection | Confirm with the selected model datasheet and installation conditions. |
| Power and outputs | Depend on the selected transmitter, module and protocol. |
Numerical limits must be matched to the current datasheet for the selected model.
Reliable readings start with correct installation.
Choose a suitable location
Assess straight pipe runs together with pumps, valves and elbows.
Check connections and commissioning
Check grounding, equipotential bonding, gaskets and wiring against the selected model manual.
Connect measurement to your control system.
PLC/SCADA or AtlasServer.io integration is engineered around the device output, protocol, power supply and communication infrastructure.

Questions before selection
Which flow meter should I choose?
Evaluate the measurement objective, fluid, flow range, pipe and installation conditions together. Electromagnetic, clamp-on and in-line ultrasonic technologies serve different requirements.
Can an electromagnetic meter measure any liquid?
No. The liquid must have sufficient electrical conductivity and be compatible with the lining and electrodes. This method is not suitable for gas, steam or insufficiently conductive liquids.
Can I measure without mains power?
A suitable battery-powered converter can be considered. Communication and analogue outputs may require additional modules and external power.
Can I measure without cutting the pipe?
Consider the clamp-on ultrasonic family. Pipe material, outside diameter, wall thickness and acoustic conditions must be suitable.
Is AtlasServer.io or SCADA connectivity standard?
Connectivity depends on the selected equipment and project scope. Protocol/register maps, modules, power supply and gateways must be validated together.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Provide the fluid, minimum/normal/maximum flow, DN, pressure, temperature, connection standard, power and communication requirements. For clamp-on meters, include pipe outside diameter, wall thickness and material.
