ALTOSONIC V
1.1 Five-beam ultrasonic flowmeter
PRODUCT FEATURES 1
KROHNE's ALTOSONIC V flowmetering. The absence of obstructions or moving parts in the pipe, ensures no wear or pressure loss. This, in combination with larger meter sizes permits simplified configuration of metering systems. For example no strainers and less parallel lines are required.
Operation is maintenance free. No periodic calibration is required, drastically cutting cost for on-site equipment and procedures. This all results in considerable cost savings in both capital (CAPEX) and operation expenditure (OPEX).
New line extensions make multi-beam flow metering a more cost effective and viable alternative for low viscosity applications. There is also a line extension for extremely difficult heavy crudes.
ALTOSONIC V has established itself as the standard in multi-beam custody-transfer

1 PRODUCT FEATURES
1.2 System components
The ALTOSONIC V is more than a simple meter. It is a 3 component system:
UFS-V, Ultrasonic Flow Sensor
UFC-V, Ultrasonic Flow Converter
UFP-V, Ultrasonic Flow Processor
The flow converter and flow processor are intended for controlling an ultrasonic flow sensor and processing its output signals. Equipment connected to the flow processor's input can be used to determine the volume under reference conditions and to generate indications and printouts of the measured / calculated quantities.

UFC-V, Ultrasonic Flow Converter
UFC-V, Ultrasonic Flow ConverterUFC-V, Ultrasonic Flow Converter For each independent measuring path, the flow converter determines the time of flight, relative flow rate per path and more, based on the received raw data from the flow sensor and transfers this information via an RS485 information string to the flow processor.
UFP-V, Ultrasonic Flow Processor
UFP-V, Ultrasonic Flow Processor
UFP-V, Ultrasonic Flow ProcessorUFP-V, Ultrasonic Flow Processor The flow processor determines the gross flow based on the information received from the flow converter. Using measured pressure, temperature, and optional density, the UFP also calculates the standard flow. The results and diagnostics are shown on-screen or fed further to the supervisory system.
Two versions are available of the processor:
a panel-mounted version complete with HMI, and
a compact housing for part of a system build.
