Prosonic Flow Clamp On 9P5B

Summary

Product identification

• Product name: Prosonic Flow Clamp-On 9P5B
• Product line: Proline Prosonic Flow P 500 ultrasonic clamp-on flowmeter
• Description: Clamp-on flowmeter for limited spaces in process industries with up to 3 I/Os. Constant accuracy even when mounted with short inlet run thanks to FlowDC. Bidirectional measurement of various fluids, e.g. liquid hydrocarbons and chemicals.

Benefits

• Flexible mounting – FlowDC reduces inlet runs to a minimum
• High safety standards – developed according to IEC 61508 functional safety requirements and holds international approvals for hazardous area, Zone 1 and Class I, Division 1
• Reliable measurement performance – proven sensors in combination with maintenance-free mounting system deliver long-term stable signals, also in high-temperature applications (≤550 °C/1022 °F)
• User-friendly operation – the web server offers full remote access, while the device’s touch display offers convenient on-site interaction
• Transparent process insights – Heartbeat Technology with its integrated diagnostics, verification and monitoring functions enable compliance and process safety at all times
• Low capital investment – cost-effectiveness increases with the pipe diameter (up to DN 4000/160")

Field of application

Prosonic Flow P 500 is the ultrasonic clamp-on flowmeter of choice for safe and maintenance-free measurement of conductive and non-conductive liquids, even in challenging applications. It measures flow noninvasively and bidirectionally, independent of pressure, density and conductivity, and without process interruption. FlowDC makes mounting as flexible as never before. The specified accuracy is maintained at an inlet run of only 2 x DN, even in the case of disturbed flow profiles.
