Liquid ultrasonic metering systems provide a space and weight saving solution and are therefore a good choice for Floating Production Storage and Offloading Vessels (FPSOs) and offshore platforms. However this type of flow metering technique is now being used extensively at onshore Loading/Unloading Terminals, Pipelines and Petrochemical plants.
Ultrasonic flow metering benefits from:
Smaller/lighter than conventional systems
Simple to produce i.e. low cost and short manufacturing time
No moving parts
Long term stability
No filtration necessary
High flow
High accuracy
Immune to medium – high frequency vibrations
Immune to unexpected pressure flow surges
