Ultrasonic Flow Measurement for the Entire Water Cycle

Water and wastewater utilities operate extensive pipeline networks with a wide variety of pipe sizes and media types. The demands placed on flow measurement systems are correspondingly high: They must be flexible in application, reliable in operation, and cost-effective to purchase and use—both for permanent installations and for temporary measurement tasks.

The Benefits of Katronic Ultrasonic Flow Meters in Water Management

Clamp-on ultrasonic flow meters can be installed quickly and without cutting into the pipe and are ideal for maintenance, inspection, and monitoring measurements, even in confined or hard-to-reach areas. They also offer a cost-effective alternative to invasive flow meters for continuous measurement in large pipelines. Katronic’s clamp-on technology enables safe and hygienic flow measurement in drinking water, wastewater, and industrial wastewater applications.

Installation Without Interrupting the Power Supply

Since the sensors are mounted on the outside of the piping, the water supply remains uninterrupted at all times. There is no downtime, and the risk of contamination through pipe openings is completely eliminated, as is the risk of leaks.

High Cost-Effectiveness for Large Pipes

Installing invasive measurement systems involves considerable effort, especially with large pipe diameters. Katronic clamp-on flow meters require no pipe modifications, no downtime, and no special training. This significantly reduces both capital and operating costs. When you also consider that some of our instruments allow simultaneous measurements on two pipes, the economic advantages of KATflow meters become particularly clear.

Reliable long-term measurements at remote monitoring sites

Measuring points in the water and wastewater management sector are often located in manholes, trenches, or areas exposed to the elements. Self-powered clamp-on ultrasonic flow meters enable reliable long-term measurements without an external power supply. The system’s high protection rating ensures safe operation even in wet conditions and under mechanical stress, while optional remote reading functions allow for data collection without the need for regular on-site visits.
