D-FL 220T Ultrasonic Flow Velocity Monitor

Measuring system for continuous evaluation of flow velocity and flow direction in tunnels. Ultrasonic sensors for tunnel ventilation control system. Reliable measurement across the tunnel profile. Two identical sensors alternately transmit and receive ultrasonic pulses. The system evaluates the transition times dependent on direction and calculates flow speed. D-FL 220T requires extremely low maintenance.

Description

Measuring system for continuous evaluation of flow velocity and flow direction in tunnels. Ultrasonic sensors for tunnel ventilation control system. Reliable measurement across the tunnel profile. Two identical sensors alternately transmit and receive ultrasonic pulses. The system evaluates the transition times dependent on direction and calculates flow speed. D-FL 220T requires extremely low maintenance.
