Bronkhorst ES-FLOW ultrasonic flow meters

Click2Contact

Bronkhorst new-generation ES-FLOW Ultrasonic Flow Meters measure low flow rates of water, additives and other liquid substances. The flow meters measure volume flow from 2 up to 1500 mL/min with high precision, high linearity and low pressure drop, using ultrasound in a small-bore tube.

The instruments are liquid-independent, thanks to the measuring principle in which the actual sound velocity is accounted for in the flow calculations. With the combination of a straight sensor tube with zero dead volume, the flow meter is self-draining. The flow meter with orbital TIG-welded flanges is CIP or SIP cleanable and meets 3-A sanitary standards for hygienic applications. Wetted parts are made of stainless steel, the exterior design is rated to IP66 or IP67.

The local user interface is a capacitive touchscreen with a TFT display to operate and readout the instrument. For remote operation, Bronkhorst added a variety of Ethernet-based fieldbuses to the already available range of analog and digital communication options. The onboard PID controller can be used to drive a control valve or pump, enabling users to establish a complete, compact control loop.

Typical applications for the new low-flow liquid flow meters and controllers can be found in food, beverage and pharma, medical and chemical, and other markets which require precision fluid handling eg, fuel consumption measurement and dosing of hydrocarbons, demineralised water, colourants or lubricants in many industries.
