HYBRID ULTRASONIC FLOWMETER <Duosonics> (Pulse Doppler method + Transit Time method) DATA SHEET FSH, FSW, FLY This meter is the world’s first non-intrusive type ultrasonic
flowmeter utilizing Pulse Doppler method along with Transit Time method. It enables measurement of velocity profile directly resulting in high accuracy. This makes it suitable for undeveloped flow and for short straight pipes. Pulse Dop- pler method requires reflectors in the liquid and is utilized on opaque liquids while Transit Time method requires ultrasound penetration and is ideal for clean liquids. The new hybrid technology utilizes both methods in a complementary fash- ion thus enabling a wider range of applications than it is pos- sible now. In addition, thanks to Fuji’s new state-of-the-art
Flow transmitter
algorithm, either method can be automatically switched to

accommodate for varying fluid conditions such as concentra- tion of particles and/or air bubbles and flow velocity.
