Sierra’s new Innova-Sonic® In-Line is targeted to customers as an alternative choice for typical liquid Mag-Meter applications where high performance and affordable pricing are important. The +/- 0.5% of reading accuracy is as good as any typical magnetic flowmeter, but the ability to measure down to zero flow and virtually any clean liquid regardless of conductivity sets Sierra’s Innova-Sonic® In-Line apart.
Literally an order-of-magnitude improvement in transit-time ultrasonic flow measurement, Sierra’s PicoFly™ technology is an industry first. PicoFly™ allows ultrasonic transit time-of-flight to be measured in picoseconds 10 -12 (one trillionth of a second) rather than the typical nanoseconds 10 -9 (one billionth of a second). The result is excellent resolution that enables extreme low flow detection.
With distinctive features such as high precision, high reliability, high capability and low cost, Innova-Sonic offers low power consumption, digital signal processing with advanced noise filtering capability and outstanding applicability. Our Innova-Sonic® In-line features an accuracy of +/-0.5% of reading and repeatability of +/- 0.07 % of reading, a wide operating temperature range of -40F to +176F (-40C to 80C) and a bi-directional flow range of 0 to 23 fps liquids (0-7 mps). The instrument is ideal for clean liquid applications and is tolerant of liquids with the small amount of air bubbles or suspended solids commonly found in most industrial flow applications.
