Function and system design

Measuring principle Prosonic Flow operates on the principle of transit time difference.

An acoustic (ultrasonic) signal is transmitted in both directions from one measuring sensor to the

other. As the signal propagation velocity of the waves is less when the waves travel against the

direction of flow than along the direction of flow, a transit time difference occurs. This difference

is directly proportional to the flow velocity.

Prosonic Flow calculates the flow from the pipe cross-sectional area and the measured transit

time difference.

v ~ ∆t

Q = v · A

v = flow velocity

∆t = transit time difference

v = volume flow

A = pipe cross-sectional area

In addition to the volume flow, the system measures the sound velocity in the liquid. The sound

velocity can be used to distinguish different liquids or as a measure of product quality. You can

carry out application-specific calibrations of Prosonic Flow in the field using the Site Setup.

Signal propagation time

For accurate measurement, the ultrasonic signal needs a certain minimum signal propagation

time [t].

The measuring accuracy increases with the length of the signal propagation time (t) in a liquid.

Sensor arrangement Prosonic Flow W/U

The Prosonic Flow W sensors offer a choice between 1, 2 and 4 traverses and the Prosonic Flow

U sensors 2 traverses. Please note that the more reflection points there are in the pipe, the more

the signal strength decreases. (Example: 2 traverses = 1 reflection point, etc.)

Prosonic Flow W: 1 = 1 traverse, 2 = 2 traverses, 4 = 4 traverses

Prosonic Flow U: 2 = 2 traverses

Therefore, to maintain good signal quality, you should choose as few traverses as necessary to

achieve a sufficient transit time difference.

Recommendations:

To obtain optimum signal strength and the highest level of accuracy, we recommend the following:

•DN 15...50 →2 traverses

•DN 50...60 →2/4 traverses

•DN 80...600 →2 traverses

•DN 650...4000 →1 traverse

Sensor selection

Prosonic Flow U sensor type: DN 15...100

Prosonic Flow W sensor types (two versions): DN 50...300 and DN 100...4000.

•Both sensor types can be used in the DN 100...300 range.

•The W sensor type DN 50...300 should be used for a wall thickness < 4 mm and sensor type

DN 100...4000 for a wall thickness > 4 mm.

Commissioning accessories

During mounting and commissioning, in order to determine the sensor distance, you require data

on the measurement liquid, the pipe material used and the exact pipe dimensions. Data on the

most common liquids, pipe materials and lining materials are programmed into the

Prosonic Flow 92 program.

For liquids:

WATER –SEA WATER –DISTILLED WATER –AMMONIA –ALCOHOL –BENZENE –BROMIDE –

ETHANOL –GLYCOL –KEROSENE –MILK –METHANOL –TOLUOL –LUBRICATING OIL –FUEL

OIL –PETROL

For pipe materials:

CARBON STEEL –STAINLESS STEEL –CAST IRON –COPPER –PVC –ALUMINIUM –DUCTILE

IRON –ASBESTOS CEMENT –GRP –PEEK –PVDF –ACRYLIC GLASS

Liner material:

TAR EPOXY –MORTAR –RUBBER –TEFLON –GLASS PYREX –PVC

If your pipe material or liquid is not included in the pre-programmed selection of the transmitter

establish the missing data from the technical literature.

Power supply by built-in battery

To charge the battery, turn off the instrument power and connect the AC power adapter to the

device as shown below. The “FAST CHARGE”LED is lighted in red, and the “DC IN”LED is lighted

in green. When the instrument is fully charged, the “FAST CHARGE”LED flashes in red. With a

fully charged battery pack, the instrument can measure for about 5 hours (with the backlight

turned off). The time required for charging is approximately 3 hours.

Performance characteristics

Reference operating

conditions

•Liquid temperature: +28 °C ± 2 K

•Ambient temperature: +22 °C ± 2 K

•Warm-up period: 30 minutes

Installation:

•Inlet run > 10 x DN

•Outlet run > 5 x DN

•Sensors grounded.

•The measuring sensors are correctly installed.

Maximum measured error For flow velocities between 0.5 m/s and 7 m/s and a Reynolds number of > 10000, the system

accuracy is:

± 0.5 % o.r. (of current reading)

The system is dry calibrated. The calibration factor by dry calibration is calculated based on the

actual pipe and liquid properties. This dry calibration procedure results in an additional uncer-

tainty for the measurement. The resulting accuracy of the measurement therefore is better than

2 % typically.

The zero point instability is < 10 mm/s.

Repeatability ± 0.3 % for flow velocities > 0.5 m/s

Operating conditions

Installation conditions

Installation instructions Mounting location

Correct measuring is possible only if the pipe is full. Avoid the following locations:

•Highest point of a pipeline. Risk of air accumulating.

•Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a vertical pipe.

Vertical pipes

Notwithstanding the above, the installation proposal below permits installation in an open vertical

pipe. Pipe restrictors or the use of an orifice with a smaller cross-section than the nominal diam-

eter prevent the pipe from running empty while measurement is in progress.

Installation in a vertical pipe
