Description

SITRANS F US ultrasonic flowmeters measure flow in standard volumetric units. The
measurement is independent of changes in liquid temperature, density, pressure and
conductivity. The flowmeter is designed for use on single phase liquids.
They are designed for measurement of:
● Volume flow rate
● Bidirectional flow measurement
● Total volume
The specific calibration for the SONOKIT pipe installation is done by carefully measuring the
sensor geometry and manual programming of mechanical/geometrical pipe data via the
software tool SIMATIC PDM* in the transmitter.
*PDM: Process Device Manager (software programing tool)
Main applications
The main application for flowmeters with the transmitter SITRANS FUS080 is measurement
of water flow in district heating plants, local networks, boiler stations, substations, chiller
plants, irrigations plants, and other general water applications.
