Badger Dynasonics Ultrasonic Flow Meters

Dynasonics Ultrasonic Flow Meter

Badger Meter ultrasonic flow meters measure flow rate by propagating ultrasound waves into liquid-filled pipes and measuring the reflections. There are two technologies to choose from based on the fluid properties: 

  1. Transit time
  2. Doppler

With clamp-on technology, the Badger Meter ultrasonic meters reside outside the pipe and bring you flow measurement with:

  • Reduced installation costs
  • Uninterrupted production
  • Installation flexibility across a wide range of pipe sizes
  • No pressure head loss
  • No contact with internal liquid
  • No moving parts to maintain
The TFX ultrasonic clamp-on flow meter is quickly and easily installed without cutting or tapping the pipe.  Ultrasonic waves transmit upstream and downstream through the pipe wall and water flowing in the pipes. By measuring the difference in the travel time and knowing the pipe size, the meter determines the velocity and flow rate.  TFX flow meters are a cost effective meter for measuring water flow in a variety of applications.

Move Over Ultrasonics, Radar Level Transmitters are Better Choice for Dry Bulk Solids

Ultrasonic level transmitters used in dry bulk solids level monitoring are starting to be eclipsed. Radar technology is now so good that it can get a signal and level or distance off of very unreflective media such as polypropylene pellets. Compared to ultrasonics, radar is often more reliable, easier to use, and has lower maintenance requirements. Check out this video from Swanson Flo highlighting the Schneider Electric LR64 and LR65 radar level transmitters.
