Industrial Discharge Non-contact Flow Measurement,

Sampling, and Logging at Klatovy Poultry Plant

Teledyne ISCO’s Signature® owmeter, LaserFlow® non-contact sensor, and 5800 sampler installed at the discharge

outlet of the Klatovy poultry plant for accurate sampling and ow measurement for billing purposes.

Klatovy Plant Site Challenges

The Klatovy poultry plant (Drbesk zvod Klatovy
a.s.), founded in 1956, is the second largest poultry meat
and sausage producer in the Czech Republic. In 2015
the plant’s management began seeking a maintenance­free solution for untreated wastewater being discharged
into the municipal sewerage system. The composition of
the waste—a range of organic and inorganic materials
including grit, straw, sawdust, fecal matter, paunch waste,
and FOG (fats, oils and grease)—was the most critical
factor to be considered. The ow measurement and
sampling points both needed to be located in the same
manhole. The tight space and highly variable conditions,
including near zero ows and sudden surges were
also important considerations in the selection of ow­measurement and sampling technology.

Flow measurement and sampling points are both located
within the same discharge outlet manhole.

The Teledyne ISCO Fully Integrated Solution

Results and Customer’s Feedback

To ensure accurate ow measurement for billing purposes
under di󰀩cult ow conditions, and to achieve the required
low cost of site maintenance, Teledyne ISCO’s distributor
in the Czech Republic, Technoaqua, recommended
our non-contact LaserFlow® sensor connected to our
Signature® logger.

For the collection of proportional ow samples, our 5800
sampler was an integral part of the solution. With its
durable design, reliable peristaltic pump, and compliance
to 5667 and 16479 (MCERTS) standards, the 5800
sampler delivers outstanding performance in challenging
industrial applications.

The solution met all of the customer’s requirements for
ow measurement and industrial sampling. The system
has been operating without failure since September of

2015. The non-contact ow sensor technology allowed
the customer to account for discharged wastewater using
actual measurements.

The plant was also able to save operational costs that
would have been required for maintenance if a convention­al contact measurement device were installed instead.

diameter outlet at moderate ow conditions.

around 1.5 m/s when level reaches approximately 100 mm during peak production hours.
