Speedy Pulsar Contacting doppler flow velocity sensor

Description

Speedy is a steamlined, easy to fit liquid velocity sensor for use in channels, pipes or sections where no Primary Measurement Device (PMD) exists.

Pulsarโ€™s Speedy velocity sensor communicates digitally and is designed to connect to Pulsarโ€™s FlowCERT open channel flow monitor via FlowCERTโ€™s on-board RS485, it provides the velocity measurement for velocity x head calculations of flow rate where no primary measurement device exists. Speedy can be mounted up to 250m from the FlowCERT controller. Speedy is available as a โ€œwedgeโ€ sensor with a stainless steel base plate or as a pipe mounted sensor.

Speedy operates with one of the following Pulsar controllers:

    • Velocity Interface
      2 relays
      1x 4-20mA output
    • FlowCERT
      5 relays
      2x 4-20mA outputs
      Requires a Pulsar transducer
    • Ultimate
      8 relays standard (expandable)
      2x 4-20mA outputs standard (expandable)
      Two channel system (expandable
      Requires a level transducer

Features

  • Streamlined, easy to fit sensor
  • In channels, pipes where no PMD is fitted
  • Wedge base mount or pipe mount option
  • Reliable proven and easy set up
