Atec Panametrics-Olympus-PT868 - Manual

meter expands its use to include
many fluids with entrained solids
and gas bubbles. To extend the
benefits of the transit-time
method to more difficult applica-
tions, the PT868 uses a patented
acoustic signal-coding tech-
nique that greatly increases its
signal-to-noise ratio. This allows
the PT868 to make accurate,
drift-free flow measurements in
many two-phase flows contain-
ing gas bubbles, liquid droplets,
or entrained solids where con-
ventional transit-time meters fail.

new PT868R is a dual-mode
flowmeter featuring both transit-
time and TransFlection mode
flow metering. Panametrics’ new
TransFlection ultrasonic flow
metering technology is available
exclusively from Panametrics. This
patented technique was devel-
oped for flow measurements in
multiphase fluids such as raw
sewage, sludge, slurries, tar sands,
oil-water-gas mixtures, acousti-
cally attenuating liquids, and
other demanding applications.

2PT868. The TransPort 2PT868
flowmeter is also available as a
two-channel model for flow
applications requiring two simul-
taneous flow measurements with
one meter. The two measure-
ment points can be on different
pipes, or at two locations on the
same pipe. Either clamp-on or
wetted transducers can be
used at either location. The dual-
channel TransPort flowmeter
can also be set-up for two-path
flow measurement at a single
location for enhanced accuracy.
No matter how it’s used, this
model continuously measures
the selected flows on both
channels, as well as the sum, the
difference, and the average of
those two channels.
