Our Products for Your Industrial Applications
Precision Measurement Technology for Complex Industrial Requirements
For 30 years, Katronic has been developing and supplying high-precision clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters for industrial applications worldwide. Our measurement technology is used across a wide range of industries where accuracy, reliability and process safety are crucial – from water management and power generation through to the food industry, and on to highly specialised applications in the chemical, semiconductor manufacturing and aerospace sectors.
The Reliable Way to Measure Flow
In clamp-on ultrasonic flow measurement, the sensors are mounted on the outside of the pipework, so that the flow rate can be measured without any intervention in the pipework system and without the need for plant shutdown. This enables precise measurements even in situations where invasive measurement methods cannot be used for safety, hygiene or economic reasons.
Our solutions are particularly well-suited to:
- safety-critical environments
- plants handling aggressive or ultra-pure media
- continuously operated processes
- large pipe diameters and hard-to-access measurement points.
Efficient Measurement – Reliable Process Monitoring
Clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters are particularly widely used in the water and wastewater industry. Thanks to the non-intrusive measurement method, flow data can be recorded without interrupting the ongoing process or contaminating the medium. At the same time, non-invasive flow measurement technology has also proven its worth in many other fields of application, including space research, maritime applications and safety-critical applications such as the determination of propulsion forces or cooling circuits.
In the food and drink industry, our ultrasonic flowmeters enable flexible and hygienic process monitoring across all stages of production. Our measuring instruments operate just as reliably in the energy and nuclear sectors, where non-invasive flowmeters are ideal for monitoring radioactive or sensitive media.
Clamp-on flowmeters also demonstrate their strengths in applications involving hazardous, corrosive or ultra-pure liquids. In the semiconductor industry, they enable the safe measurement of chemicals such as hydrofluoric acid, whilst in the pharmaceutical industry they help ensure compliance with the strictest hygiene and sterility requirements. As there is no contact with the process, product quality is guaranteed at all times.
Katronic’s flow measurement technology stands for maximum versatility, precision and reliability. Our solutions can be found in almost every conceivable application – from cleanrooms to harsh industrial environments, from safety-critical high-risk areas to sensitive production processes, from the deep sea to outer space.
