The Panametrics TransPort PT900 ultrasonic flow meter maintains the same high performance as the PT878, but features a total redesign of the flow transmitter, clamping fixture and user interface in order to improve the user experience.
The TransPort is portable, simple to use, accurate, and fast. It's easy for you to move it from location to location and task to task, and since it clamps on to the pipe exterior, there's no need to cut into the pipe or stop the process while taking measurements. It is suitable for most pipe sizes and materials, both lined and unlined, and virtually every industry that requires temporary or spot flow rate measurement.
The TransPort's rugged transducers can handle most liquids, from ultra-pure to unfiltered water and refined hydrocarbons to crude oil; it can serve a wide range of applications:
Oil & Gas
Water & Wastewater
Chemical
Industrial
Power Generation
Food & Beverage
A wide selection of transducers for most applications
Velocity, volume, mass, totalizer & energy flow capable
Fast-responding transmitter with 8GB data storage
Requires Android tablet (version 4.4 or newer)
Interfaces with Apple IOS with pairing code 843278
Easy programming with bright touchscreen
Multi-language user interface
Accuracy assumes a fully developed symmetrical flow
±1% of reading (sizes 2in or greater)
±2% of reading (sizes 0.5 to <2in)
±0.2% of reading repeatability
Up to 2Hz response time
TransPort PT900 specifications:
Operation and performance:
Fluid types: Liquids: Acoustically conductive fluids, including most clean liquids and many liquids with small amounts of entrained solids or gas bubbles
Pipe sizes: Standard: 0.5 to 24 in. (15 to 600 mm)
Optional: up to 300 in. (7500 mm) available upon request; Pipe wall thickness: Up to 3 in. (76.2 mm).
Pipe material: All metals and most plastics. Consult Panametrics for concrete, composite materials and highly corroded or lined pipes.
Accuracy: ±1% of reading (2 in./50 mm or greater pipe sizes); ±2% of reading (0.5 in./15 mm to <2 in./50 mm pipe sizes). Installation assumes a fully developed, symmetrical flow profile (typically 10 pipe diameters upstream and 5 pipe diameters downstream of straight pipe run). Final installation accuracy is a function of multiple factors including fluid, temperature range, pipe centricity among other factors.
Repeatability: ±0.2% of reading
Range (Bidirectional): 0.1 to 40 ft/s (0.03 to 12.19 m/s)
Response time: Up to 2 Hz
Measurement Parameters: Velocity, volume, mass, energy, total flow
Channels: 1 or 2 channels
Flow transmitter:
