Working Principle

 

Ultrasonic water meter is a new type of water meter that can detect the time difference caused by the change of speed when the ultrasonic beam propagates in the water upstream and downstream, analyze and deal with the flow rate of water, and then calculate the flow rate of water further.

Notices for Installation

 

  • Flush pipes before installation to avoid gravel and other foreign objects;
  • Install a valve and filter before the water meter;
  • Do not touch the electrical part or pull wires to avoid damage during installation;
  • When the water meter is installed in a horizontal or inclined way, the ultrasonic flow probe on pipes shall be placed horizontally, and when installed vertically, make sure the water flows from down to up;
  • Please note that the arrow direction on the pipe shall be consistent with the water flow direction during installation;
  • The joint washer shall be installed correctly to avoid misaligned washer blocking water and affecting the accuracy of the water meter;
  • The water meter shall not be installed at a place that may be affected by strong mechanical vibrations; Special Notices:

1. Be sure to install an on-off valve and filter before the water meter and another on-off valve is recommended after it for maintenance. To prevent backflow, a check valve should be installed in front of or behind the water meter.

  • Before using this water meter, the pipe must be filled with water, otherwise, it will lead to inaccurate or even non-measurement;
  • When installing the water meter, should be reserved length of DN*10 in front of the water meter. Or should be reserved the length of DN*5 behind the water meter;
  • The water meter shall refresh the display every 4s, and read the water meter (including the starting value and end value) 4s at least after the valve is closed when testing the water meter, otherwise, the testing results may be affected;
  • Please make sure the medium flow is within the flow range of the water meter during test and use, otherwise, it may result in damage to the water meter;
  • In case of any malfunction (e.g. metering failed, etc.) during use, please contact the related management department immediately and do not repair it by yourself;
  • The product is designed with a disposable anti-disassembly seal which shall be removed only by appointed personnel, or otherwise, it shall be excluded from the free after-sales service.

FAQ

 

Q: Can ultrasonic water meters measure accurately?

A: Ultrasonic water meters are currently the most widely used water meters, and their measurement accuracy has been recognized and affirmed by people in the industry. The measurement principle of ultrasonic water meters is to measure water flow velocity and volume through the reflection of sound waves, which has very high accuracy. Moreover, ultrasonic water meters do not have any moving parts, so their stability and reliability are relatively high.

Q: How do ultrasonic water meters communicate?

A: The basic principle of ultrasonic water meter communication is to detect the time difference caused by the change of speed when the ultrasonic sound beam propagates upstream and countercurrent in the water and then analyzes and processes the water flow rate to obtain the water flow rate to accumulate the water flow rate further. Better than traditional communication methods, ultrasonic water meters are used for communication, and the transmission is more accurate, energy-saving, and anti-interference. The process involves encoding the required data into ultrasonic waves and sending them at regular intervals from the sending water meter to the receiving water meter, which decodes the information and displays it on the meter.

Q: What are the special requirements for installing an ultrasonic water meter?

A: First of all, during the installation process of the ultrasonic water meter, it is necessary to select a location that is approximate to the direction of the water flow to ensure that the direction of the water flow is consistent with the positioning direction of the instrument. This can effectively avoid the impact of water flow on the ultrasonic sensor and make instrument measurements more accurate and reliable. Secondly, when installing an ultrasonic water meter, it is necessary to ensure the flatness and level of the pipe. Swinging or uneven pipes will cause errors in the measurement data and affect the use effect. Therefore, during the installation process, attention should be paid to adjusting the position and height of the pipeline to ensure that the flatness and levelness of the pipeline meet standard requirements. In addition, before installing the ultrasonic water meter, the pipeline needs to be fully flushed and cleaned to ensure that impurities and garbage inside the pipeline are removed to avoid affecting the measurement data. The instrument needs to be calibrated after installation. Please strictly follow the instructions for use to ensure the true reliability of the measurement data. When using and maintaining an ultrasonic water meter, you must understand its usage and maintenance instructions, check the measurement data regularly, and replace the battery and casing in a timely manner to ensure normal use. At the same time, be careful to prevent the instrument from being impacted or dampened to avoid damage to the instrument.

Q: What certifications have our ultrasonic water meters received?

A: At present, our ultrasonic water meter products have not yet obtained relevant certifications, but we are now planning to submit the necessary information to obtain the certification in 2024. We will continue to work hard to ensure that our ultrasonic water meter products comply with various standards and regulations. We also hope that you can continue to pay attention to and support our company's products.

Q: Can the accuracy of ultrasonic water meters reach R400?

A: At present, we have developed an ultrasonic water meter with an accuracy of R400, and its installation pitch is U0/D0. This water meter is still in the testing stage and is expected to be officially supplied in the first quarter of 2024.
