As industrial processes increasingly demand flexible, cost-effective, and non-intrusive flow measurement solutions, clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters have become an important choice across water, energy, and process industries. Unlike traditional inline meters, this technology measures flow externally without cutting the pipe or interrupting production.
Using advanced transit-time ultrasonic technology, clamp-on flowmeters transmit and receive ultrasonic signals through the pipe wall. By analyzing the time difference between upstream and downstream signals, the system accurately calculates flow velocity and volumetric flow rate. This enables reliable measurement without direct contact with the medium.
The latest generation of clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters supports an exceptionally wide pipe size range from DN15 to DN6000, making it suitable for applications from small-diameter utility pipelines to large municipal water networks and industrial cooling systems. This wide adaptability significantly reduces inventory requirements and installation complexity for end users.
Because there is no need to penetrate the pipe, the clamp-on design eliminates pressure loss, leakage risk, and contamination concerns. It is especially suitable for applications involving clean water, seawater, HVAC systems, chemical liquids, and temporary flow verification in field operations.
From municipal water supply and wastewater management to oil and industrial energy management, clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters provide a highly versatile solution for non-invasive flow measurement across an extensive DN15–DN6000 range, supporting smarter and more efficient industrial operations.
