Ultrasonic Flow Measurement in Steam and Condensate Lines

Steam flow is measured using venturi flow nozzles that operate on critical flow principles or ultrasonic transducers that calculate flow based on pulse transit time between sensors mounted on the pipe.

Yes, ultrasonic flow meters work by transmitting ultrasound pulses between transducers and measuring transit time differences, providing accurate, non-invasive flow measurement with no pressure drop or moving parts to maintain.

MAC Instruments offers steam flow measurement from 125 to 5,000 lb/hr across standard models, with custom configurations available for specialized applications requiring higher or lower flow capacities.

Yes, our steam flow meters deliver true mass flow measurement even with changing line pressures up to 150 PSIG using proprietary venturi technology and critical flow principles for consistent accuracy.

Steam flow meters and ultrasonic systems are available for 1-inch, 2-inch, and 3-inch pipe sizes with flanged raised-face connections, accommodating most industrial steam and condensate line configurations.

Steam flow transmitters provide 4-20mA, 0-20mA, 0-5VDC, and 1-5VDC analog outputs for seamless integration with DCS, PLC, and SCADA systems, plus mechanical panel gauges for local indication.
