LEVIFLOW™ LFC-1C Single Channel Converter

The LEVIFLOW^TM flowmeter series is designed for non invasive high precision flow measurements of high purity fluids. The operating principle is based on two piezoelectric transducers, mounted at both ends of the measuring path of the fluid stream, generate and receive an ultrasonic wave. The wave going in direction of the flow (with-stream wave) is accelerated and the wave going against (against-stream wave) the flow direction is slowed down. The two waves are processed by a signal converter. The difference of the transmit time of both waves is proportional to the velocity of the fluid.

The standard configuration of the LEVIFLOW^TM flowmeters consists of a flow sensor and a converter with a digital signal processor (DSP) for processing the sensor signals. Five flow sensor sizes are available to measure flows from the ml/min range up to 80 l/min. Various signals (analogue, digital input and digital output) are provided and can be configured with a PC software. A two wire RS485 bus allows arrays of multiple flowmeters. In addition, the sensor value is shown on a 4-digit display.

For high volume applications a multi-channel converter is available, which processes 6 sensors with one single converter. The sensor signals are available over a RS485 two wire bus, hence reducing significantly cabling, space and costs.
