Measure Flow Anywhere, Anytime—In Minutes, Not Hours

Four reasons portable ultrasonic beats permanent flowmeters for flow surveys and system diagnostics

Get Flow Data in 60 Seconds—Just Clamp and Read

Clean pipe surface, apply coupling gel, clamp transducers, press measure. Flow reading appears in under 10 seconds. No pipe cutting, welding, or system shutdown. Measure dozens of points per day for comprehensive system audits that permanent flowmeters can’t provide.

  • 60-second measurements—complete flow surveys in hours, not weeks

One Device Measures Your Entire Facility

Single handheld unit handles pipes from ½” to 240″ using interchangeable transducers. Carry complete kit in ruggedized case. Move between measurement points instantly. Replace 20+ permanent flowmeters with one portable device for occasional monitoring locations.

  • Replace 20+ permanent meters—one portable device serves entire plant

No Installation Costs, No Maintenance, No Calibration Drift

Battery-powered operation eliminates power wiring. Non-invasive measurement means no process penetration or leak points. Store unit between uses—no ongoing maintenance or recalibration. Total cost of ownership 90% lower than permanent flowmeter networks for temporary monitoring needs.

  • 90% lower cost than permanent flowmeter networks for spot checks

Built-In Data Logging Tracks Trends and Finds Problems

Store 10,000+ measurements with date/time stamps. Compare readings over days or weeks to identify degrading pump performance, valve leaks, or system inefficiencies. Export data to PC for reports and analysis. Turn occasional measurements into actionable insights.

  • 10,000-reading memory—track performance trends over time
