Inline Sound Velocity Sensor: L-Sonic
Consisting of two types of sensors, our L-Sonic series builds on more than 30 years of experience developing sound velocity measurement technology. L-Sonic 5100 is a fork-type sound velocity meter, while L-Sonic 6100, a tube type meter, is tailor-made for high-precision OCR measurements.
Our sensors are made of wetted part materials, such as SST, Hastelloy, or Monel. From the chemistry, petroleum, and mining industries to the HVAC and beer ones, these easy-to-use sensors are used in industries all over the world.
Key Features
Conduct highly accurate measurements
- Measure with repeatability up to 0.005 m/s for highly accurate results
- Conduct measurements that are insensitive to gas bubbles
- Measure even at flow rates at around 0 m/s- with high precision and reliability
- Conduct high-precision temperature measurement for accurate formula compensation
- Get peace of mind: Changes in flow-rate, pressure, and viscosity don’t affect your results
