Introductions
Modular type ultrasonic flow meter is one type ultrasonic flow meter with small size and competitive price. It’s working based on transmit-time working theory.
One ultrasonic sensor send ultra-sound wave and another one sensor could receive this wave. The transmit time from send to receive have relationship with the velocity of flow speed. Then, converter could calculate the flow speed based the transmit time.

Installation
“V” method installation:
The “V” method installation is a relatively standard installation method, which is easy to use and accurate in measurement. When installing the two sensors, the center line of the two sensors can be aligned horizontally with the axis of the pipeline. It’s used on DN15mm and DN400mm.
