Acoustic wave transmitters for a
range of applications

US-based flow measurement specialists Hawk Measurement Systems has developed the Sultan Series, a range of non-intrusive acoustic wave transmitters

The Sultan Series is designed to yield accurate and comprehensive results for a wide range of applications and withstand the harshest environments, its makers say. It is suitable for effectively measuring difficult-to-measure vapours, dust, solids and liquids in a wide spectrum of industries, including water and wastewater, mining, power stations, food, plastics, chemical, irrigation, cement, grain, paper and quarries. It features a programmable, fail-safe mode, low cost-per-point and pump control. It is reportedly HART, GOSHAWK, MODBUS, Profibus and Fieldbus compatible.

The Sultan Series works by emitting an acoustic wave pulse, which is reflected from the surface of the material being measured.  The reflected signal is processed using specially developed software to enhance the correct signal and reject false or spurious echoes. The measured signal is temperature compensated to provide maximum accuracy to the outputs and display.
