Insight Metering, a measurement company devoted solely to flow measurement and ultrasonic flow meters, announced today the development of the iSonic-8X-L3. It is the only ultrasonic flow meter (USM) that ensonifies and measures 100% of the flow field.

 

The new USM has been test validated by Traceable labs and is built with the same proven electronics (ASME B31.3) as the iSonic-8X which is in the field in South America and Africa.

 

The iSonic-8X-L3 provides:

• Elimination of errors due to Reynolds Number changes, hydraulic issues, fouling or short inlet runs

• Inherent accuracy without relying on flow conditioners that can clog and require maintenance

• Freedom to install the meter in tight piping installations – eliminating expensive upstream pipe

• Greater flow ranges and low pressure loss – allows for smaller meters for applications

• Freedom to expect that a calibration done on one fluid/gas (on one Reynolds Number range) can be used anywhere

• Reliable technology that promises years of service without ever requiring maintenance.

The iSonic-8X-L3 measures 100% of the velocity field so like the Mag meter, which measures an electric field induced by the complete flow field and like the Coriolis meter that measures vibrating tube phase change caused by the full mass flow.

 

"The new USM is truly like nothing else on the market. We set out to solve the problems that typic USMs experience: susceptibility to disturbances, Reynolds Number errors, proveability, dependence on flow conditioners, system design flexibility and we've done that with the 100% cross section of measurement," said founder and creator, Don Augenstein.
