Arrow Hunter PLUS – Portable BTU Energy Flowmeter

Description

•   All-in-One Portable Thermal Energy Measurement using non-intrusive (clamp-on) flow and temperature sensors with an integral energy meter

•   Advanced Transit-time Technology with +/- 0.5% Accuracy and certified Class A Clamp-on Temperature Sensors

•   Dual Channel Meter measures flow in all metal, composite & plastic pipes 0.25″ – 118″ diameters with or without liners

•   Dual DSP Microprocessor with digital signal noise rejection

•   Portable enclosure with graphical display and large data logging capabilities

•   Easy to install clamp-on sensors – usually reading energy and flow within 30 minutes time

The ECHO Arrow Hunter Plus range of non-invasive flowmeters utilize transit-time ultrasonic technology for the accurate flow measurement of clean or dirty liquids and liquefied gases in full pipes.  The AH+BTU is a single source Portable Thermal Energy Meter with Class A certified insertion or clamp-on temperature sensors and precise flow for a complete Energy Measurement Solution.  This meter will monitor off-peak, extremely low flows down to 0.03 ft/s.

The AH+BTU is designed for portable applications where quick setup, accurate flow testing and reliable energy measurement are the primary requirements.  The unit is simple, light-weight and cost-effective.  It meets and exceeds the measurement performance of any competitors flowmeter on the market today.

The measurement of flow is based on the principle that sound waves are influenced by a flowing medium.  Measurements are made by penetrating the pipe with ultrasound and measuring the  frequency variations and phase shifts of the signals received.  This measuring technique has no effect on the flowing medium. There is no pressure loss in the pipe and no wear on components of the measuring device.

The ultrasonic and temperature sensors are clamped onto the outside of the pipe, thus eliminating the need to dismantle the pipe work and interrupt the process.  The AH+BTU can be applied to any type of metal or plastic pipe with or without a liner carrying clean or dirty liquids.  We have several transducers to chose from depending on pipe size, process temperature and required hazardous approvals.
