Non-Invasive Ultrasonic Flow Sensor
Watch the Video
Learn how PSG Bitoech provides accurate, intuitive and non-invasive ultrasonic flow sensors for use in biopharmaceutical processing. The BioProTT transducers, with transit-time technology, provide simple, clamp-on flow measurement of tubing systems in the video above.
Space Saving Design
PSG Biotech’s flow meter design allows you to save space and achieve greater accuracy in flow measurement with a non-invasive method. It is extremely compact due to a highly integrated digital electronic design.
Overview
The PSG Biotech flow sensor comes pre-calibrated for the user, requires no priming, and contains the ability to use 7 different calibration tables – all on one sensor. The BioProTT transducer, with transit-time technology, provides simple, clamp-on flow measurement of tubing systems. The transducer quickly and easily clamps around flexible hoses with a click lock. This lock ensures that contamination and pressure-drops within the system will be avoided, as well as no extra assembly splicing.
The functional design of this PSG Biotech flow meter features no moving parts and prevents any additional shearing on the process fluid, giving it a great advantage over invasive methods that also handle biomolecules or shear-sensitive organisms.
