Ultrasonic Clamp-On Flow Meter
SONOFLOW® CO.55 for Non-Contact Contamination-Free Flow Measurement on Flexible Tubes
The ultrasonic clamp-on flow meter SONOFLOW CO.55 measures the flow rate of liquids in flexible plastic tubing fast and reliably. The non-invasive sensor does not have any contact to the medium and is particularly suited for applications with strict hygienic standards. The clamp-on mounting concept eliminates any risk of contamination or leakage.
For non-contact measurements on rigid plastic tubes and pipes, the SEMIFLOW CO.65 Ultrasonic Clamp-On Flow Sensor is the perfect solution.
