Ultrasonic Measurement Advantages
- Stable and consistent measurement results particularly at low flows, due to best in class zero flow offset over the entire operating temperature range
- Reliable operation: under high pressure, in a wide temperature range and in various environments, subject to calibration
- Best-in-class stability over temperature leading to reduced calibration times and more effective sensor linearisation
- Wide bandwidth and high sensitivity solutions for both liquids and gases
- Wear and motion-free, ultrasonic measurement reduces pressure lost and obstructions within the flow body
- Experience with drinking water approval (WRAS approval)
- Experience in testing and manufacturing sensors to MID standards, including accelerated life testing - pressure, humidity, temperature cycling, thermal shock and moisture resistance

Piezoceramic Sensors & Transducers
Piezoceramics are used for a wide range of electromechanical transducers in a broad frequency range. In sensors, they enable the conversion of forces, pressures and accelerations into electrical signals. In sound and ultrasonic transducers, on the other hand, they can convert electrical voltages into vibrations or deformations.
