System design Clamp-on
sensors

Prosonic Flow W and U
Design:
Prosonic Flow clamp-on sensors are mounted on the existing piping from outside.
Possibilities and applications:
• Ideal for retrofitting, installation possible without interrupting process.
• Easy, quick and low-cost mounting.
• Suitable for all acoustically transmissive pipes and all pure and slightly contaminated liquids.
• Very large nominal diameter range DN 15 to 4000.
Sensor arrangement
The transmitter offers a number of options between 1 and 2 traverses for the type of installation.
1
1 traverse
2
2 traverses
Recommendations:
Due to their design and properties, the Prosonic Flow sensors are particularly suited to certain nominal
diameter ranges and pipe wall thicknesses. For this reason, various sensor types are offered for Prosonic Flow W
and U for these different applications.
Recommendations for sensor installation can be found in the following table.

Note!
• Please note that the signal strength is reduced with each additional reflection point in the pipe.
(Example: 2 traverses = 1 reflection point).
• The installation of clamp-on sensors is principally recommended in the 2 traverse type of installation. This
type of installation allows the easiest and most comfortable type of mounting and means that a system can
also be mounted even if the pipe can only be accessed from one side.
