Cross correlation method with triple redundant level measurement for reliable, high accurate and comfortable measurement of extraneous water, wastewater, sludges and chemically polluted water from nightly discharge up to flood. In many cases, users are facing almost unsolvable problems when it comes to choose and to use portable flow measurement technology.

Many times media with pollution loads such as sludge, solids, fibres and grease have to be measured without the risk of measurement failures as well as clear water from influents or ground water intruding the channel system. Additionally, there is very often an extreme discharge behaviour, ranging from volumes tending to zero up to pressurized discharge or backwater within the sewer system. The measurement methods used until now (magnetic-inductive methods, Doppler sensors and similar) very often did not meet these requirements. This is why faulty measurement results or even measurement failures occured.

Being aware of the problems above and using 20 years of experience in the development of portable flow measurement devices, NIVUS have enhanced the very successful cross correlation method known from stationary measurement technology. The new ‘PCM Pro’ has proven its usability, reliability and accuracy in the field of portable flow measurement with many units within one year.
