A clamp-on flow meter can be installed without cutting into the pipework. This significantly reduces the risk of leaks, contamination or contact with hazardous substances – a crucial advantage in safety-critical applications.
Ultrasonic Flowmeters for the Aerospace Industry
Katronic flow meters have been used successfully for many years in the research and development sector of the aerospace industry. The specific characteristics of the media used in this sector, as well as measurement points that are difficult to access, place high demands on the measurement technology. In these applications, clamp-on flow meters have established themselves as a particularly suitable solution.
Benefits of Using Katronic Ultrasonic Flowmeters in the Aerospace Industry
Several leading European companies use Katronic flowmeters for a range of applications, including the testing of aircraft hydraulic systems. It is precisely where highly viscous or chemically aggressive fluids are used that conventional in-line instruments often reach their limits. Non-invasive measurement from the outside enables reliable and safe flow measurement without any intervention in the pipework.
Maximum Safety when Handling Hazardous Substances
Reliable and Reproducible Measurement Results under Dynamic Process Conditions
In processes with rapidly changing operating conditions, Katronic flowmeters deliver stable and reproducible measurement results throughout the entire process. This facilitates precise analyses and reliable test procedures in development and test facilities.
Real-Time Flow Measurement Thanks to Extremely Short Response Times
With a response time of one second or less, Katronic flowmeters provide readings in near real time. This is particularly advantageous when monitoring irregular or dynamic flows, such as those frequently encountered in aerospace applications.
