Flow Pulse flow monitor for multiple applications

Flow Pulse from Pulsar Process Measurement is a compact, non-invasive cost-effective pipe flow monitor that gives repeatability and simple installation with no down time, perfect for monitoring flow rates in fluid distribution systems, for pump efficiency, in process plant or sewage pumping stations.

Easy installation - just clamp a small sensor to the outside of a pipe and immediately get a reliable, repeatable flow measurement. Virtually no installation costs, no interruption to service, clean and simple. Ultrasound is fired through the pipe wall then reflected from bubbles, particles and vortices in all directions and at a wide range of frequencies, the reflections received back into Flow Pulse.

Flow Pulse’s Refracted Spread Spectrum Analysis (RSSA) digital signal processing analyses and integrates received signals over a wide frequency range, then slices them for real-time analysis and flow rate calculation.

Flow Pulse operates in a flow range from 0.3m/s through to 4m/s, with minimum particle size of 100 microns and concentration of 200ppm or above. Pipe material can be rigid plastic, stainless steel, mild steel or cast iron. Corrugated pipe is not an issue and even light corrosion will give a good result. Flow Pulse provides repeatability ±5%.

Flow Pulse is also available as a portable flow monitoring system when paired with the battery powered Flow Pulse Handheld Controller. With the ability to connect to pre-installed Flow Pulse sensors or as a self-contained kit, the Flow Pulse Handheld Controller provides instant feedback via its clear colour screen.

Particularly useful for pumping stations, this flow monitoring system can be used for applications such as: Identifying inefficient pumps, Monitoring and comparing pump performance; Identifying faulty non return valves; Dry run pump protection; Flow Verification; and Recording and logging flow data for analysis and comparison.
