Advantages of Clamp-on Ultrasonic Flow Meters Over Inline Flow Meters

Image
  In modern industrial environments, flexible and non-invasive flow measurement plays a crucial role. However, many pipe flowmeter systems still rely on technologies that come into direct contact with the fluid to measure flow. Because these contact-based systems carry an inherent risk of wear, contamination, or failure, choosing non-contact alternatives has become increasingly important. Whether you are transferring aggressive acids, dosing precise amounts of treatment chemicals, or handling fuels and solvents, the right flow meter helps ensure safety, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency. Among the available technologies, clamp-on ultrasonic flow meters and in-line flow meters are two of the most commonly used options. Clamp-on flow meters, in particular, offer a more efficient solution. They are mounted directly on the outside of existing pipes, eliminating the need for pipe cutting, physical modifications, or system downtime. These systems use sensors that me...

Types of Radar Level Transmitters and Their Advantages

Image
The RADAR (Radio Detection and Ranging) technology works by detecting the presence of distant objects by receiving a reflection of electromagnetic waves emitted by the RADAR device itself. It was widely used by the British during the Second World War to detect German bombers from far away. The RADAR technology was initially used for military purposes and weather forecasting, but now it is also used for industrial applications. Radar level transmitters are used for commercial and industrial applications to measure the level of liquids and solids. A radar level transmitter uses radio or electromagnetic waves of very high frequency in the gigahertz range. Guided wave and non-contact type radar transmitters are two types of radar level transmitters that are commonly found in industrial facilities. In this blog, we are going to explain the working of both of these transmitters. Guided Wave Radar Level Transmitter The working principle of a guided wave radar level transmitter is based on t...
