The GE Panametrics AquaTrans UTX878 ultrasonic flow meter combines the simplicity of a loop-powered flow meter installation with proven, advanced clamp-on ultrasonic flow transmitter technology. The Panametrics AquaTrans UTX878 provides customers with an economical solution for flow measurement in pipes up to 16 in (400 mm).
Loop Powered

Loop-powered measurement devices have increased in popularity in the recent past because of the simplicity of their installation. A single cable to the meter carries both power to the meter and flow information back to the control system. New low-powered ultrasonic transducer technology, coupled with smart-microprocessor power management, allow the AquaTrans UTX878 to function as a loop-powered meter.

Two-Channel Model
A second channel is optional to ultrasonic flow meters from the GE Panametrics AquaTrans UTX878 Series to provide the capability to measure flow at a single point to obtain two-path averaging of the flow measurement for increased accuracy.
Transit-Time Flow Measurement Technique

The Correlation Transit-Time™ technique uses a pair of transducers with each transducer sending and receiving coded ultrasonic signals through the fluid. When the fluid is flowing, signal transit-time in the downstream direction is shorter than in the upstream direction; the difference between these transit-times is proportional to the flow velocity. The AquaTrans UTX878 measures the time difference and uses programmed pipe parameters to determine flow rate and direction.
