1.1 Clamp-on technology
The OPTISONIC 6300
OPTISONIC 6300 stands for continuity and long term reliability. Flow measurement can be
OPTISONIC 6300OPTISONIC 6300
done anywhere and start-up is immediate. The new OPTISONIC 6300
liquids with its robust industrial construction and regreasing concept provides a revolutionary
solution for easy handling. It can be fitted on the outside of piping to measure the flow rate of
liquids.
The clamp-on flowmeter is a combination of one up to two OPTISONIC 6000 clamp-on sensor(s)
and one UFC 300 ultrasonic signal converter.
The overall functionality of the clamp-on flowmeter is the continuous measurement of actual
volume flow, mass flow, flow speed, velocity of sound, gain, SNR and diagnosis value.

1.2 Variants
The OPTISONIC 6300
OPTISONIC 6300 is an ultrasonic clamp-on flowmeter that can be fitted on the outside of
OPTISONIC 6300OPTISONIC 6300
piping to measure the flowrate of liquids. The flowmeters consists of a combination of one or two
clamp-on sensor(s) and one ultrasonic signal converter:
OPTISONIC 6000 + UFC 300 = OPTISONIC 6300
OPTISONIC 6000 + UFC 300 = OPTISONIC 6300
OPTISONIC 6000 + UFC 300 = OPTISONIC 6300OPTISONIC 6000 + UFC 300 = OPTISONIC 6300

1.3 Measuring principle
• Like canoes crossing a river, acoustic signals are transmitted and received along a diagonal
measuring path.
• A sound wave going downstream with the flow travels faster than a sound wave going
upstream against the flow.
• The difference in transit time is directly proportional to the mean flow velocity of the medium.
