Ultrasonic Transit-Time Flowmeter For Permanent Installation
Measurement Principle
The EnduroFlowTM Series flowmeters are The sensors are commonly mounted with the

The sensors are installed on the pipe wall, often used for large size pipes where signal

on the transit-time difference, the geometry

Notes:
* Under reference condition and velocity should be above 0.15m/s (0.5ft/s) Flowrate is calculated by
multiplying velocity with the inner cross-section area of the pipe.
