A wall-mounted ultrasonic flow meter is a non-intrusive device that measures the flow of liquids by sending ultrasonic signals through the fluid. These meters are typically installed on the exterior of pipes, making them ideal for applications where cutting into the pipe is not feasible or where continuous flow is essential. Below are key applications of wall-mounted ultrasonic flow meters:

1. Water and Wastewater Management

• Water Supply Monitoring: Ultrasonic flow meters are commonly used in municipal water systems to monitor water distribution. Their non-intrusive nature makes them ideal for measuring flow in large pipes without interrupting water supply.
• Wastewater Treatment: In wastewater treatment plants, wall-mounted ultrasonic flow meters are used to measure the flow of treated or untreated water. They can handle challenging conditions such as sludge, chemicals, and varying water qualities.

2. HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) Systems

• Chilled Water Flow Monitoring: In HVAC systems, wall-mounted ultrasonic flow meters are used to measure the flow of chilled water in cooling systems. Accurate flow measurement ensures the proper functioning of cooling and heating systems, optimizing energy efficiency.
• Energy Management: These meters are used to measure the flow of water or steam in heating and cooling applications for energy monitoring and optimization, ensuring efficient use of resources.

3. Industrial Process Control

• Chemical and Petrochemical Plants: Ultrasonic flow meters are used in chemical industries to monitor the flow of various liquids in pipelines. They are well-suited for corrosive and hazardous liquids as they don't come into direct contact with the fluid.
• Process Cooling and Heating: In industrial processes requiring precise temperature control, such as metalworking, power generation, and food processing, ultrasonic flow meters are used to monitor the flow of cooling or heating fluids to ensure efficient thermal regulation.
