Open Channel Flow Measurement Devices

The sitrans probe lu240 is a 2 wire loop powered ultrasonic level transmitter bringing you the reliability of sonic intelligence echo processing.
Open channel flow measurement devices. Starting with our industry leading fiberglass manhole tube openchannelflow integrates. Pipes entering a weir pool or box may run full but should not be pressurized. Open your mind to our open channel flow portfolio. The result is a single piece watertight and corrosion resistant structure from which operators can.
Lowering the bottom of the channel. Openchannelflow manufactures worldclass flumes manholes weirs and gauges to measure condition and control the flow of water as well as fiberglass shelters buildings and enclosures to fill a range of chemical equipment protection and storage needs. Flow measurement devices strive to achieve this critical flow for various conditions thus providing an accurate means of measurement. Flumes are specially shaped engineered structures that are used to measure the flow of water in open channels.
All manner of primary structures have been used the world over including v notches rectangular weirs parshall flumes h flumes crump weirs flat v and many other hybrid versions. In general a hydraulic structure is anything that can be used to divert dam restrict or otherwise manage the flow of open channel waters. Raising the bottom of the channel. As with any open channel primary device weirs are not suitable for use on pressurized conduits.
Contracting the flow cross section narrowing the channel. For flow measurement purposed a hydraulic structure is a fixed geometry device that is placed into the flow so that all of the flow is directed through or over the device. Piped flow should be well baffled and the approaching velocity profile well distributed before flow reaches the point of measurement. The multiranger and hydroranger series consist of versatile single and multi vessel ultrasonic level controllers.
Flumes are static in nature having no moving parts and develop a relationship between the water level in the flume and the flow rate by restricting the flow of water in a variety of ways. Ideal for storm water combined effluent raw sewage and irrigation water. Critical flow in open channels can be created by three means. The avfm area velocity flow meter will monitor flow through open channels partially full sewer pipes and surcharged pipes.
