The most popular choice for closed pipe flow meter rental is the GE Panametrics PT878.
It is a non-contact ultrasonic flow meter with a rugged construction utilising an acoustic signal-coding technique that gives an accuracy of +-0.5% of rate, including flows containing gas bubbles or entrained solids.
As this is a non-contact flow meter, you are assured of leak free and drift free measurement with no need for regular maintenance. Flow rate can be accurately measured through the majority of pipe contructions including plastic, metal and concrete lined pipes, that are in the 13mm to 5000mm range.
The PT878 is a sealed unit offering IP67 protection. It's supplied with a rubber boot to protect against shock and vibration. There are a variety of clamp fixtures and transducers available for use with this flow meter. Our team will help you select the right combination for your application, which will be dependent on transducer operating frequency, pipe material and pipe size.
