Advantages of Ultrasonic Water Meters in the Water Conservancy Industry

At present, the water intake in the water conservancy industry mainly relies on two methods: open channel self flow and pipeline transportation. The water sources on the site that require pipeline transportation are mostly groundwater, river water, river water, and lake water, which are mainly used for water production, industrial water, irrigation, etc. Ultrasonic water meters are suitable for all places that need to measure the water flow inside the pipeline.

Typical applications: 
1. Measurement and supervision of water resources such as self provided water intake wells for public and commercial households such as factories, enterprises, and large public buildings. 
2. Measurement of agricultural water use.

The application advantages of ultrasonic water meters are mainly reflected in: 
1. Adaptability to various water quality: Ultrasonic water meters do not have flow blocking components, and can be capable of measuring water flow with poor water quality (including gravel and weeds) without affecting the performance of ultrasonic water meters. 
2. High precision: High measurement accuracy, large range ratio, more effective measurement and monitoring of water volume. 
3. Good reliability: The environment of monitoring points in the water conservancy industry is relatively poor, and the ultrasonic water meter reaches the protection level of IP68, suitable for harsh external environments. Compared to intelligent water meters based on mechanical water meters, ultrasonic water meters have stronger protection against external strong magnetic attacks. The most important thing is that ultrasonic water meters can recover after receiving external strong magnetic attacks. Compared to intelligent water meters that will be permanently damaged after receiving strong magnetic attacks, ultrasonic water meters perform excellently.
4. Convenient networking and communication: The ultrasonic water meter has complete interfaces, achieving information and intelligence in water resource monitoring. 
5. Energy conservation and emission reduction: The ultrasonic water meter has no internal flow blocking components, low pressure loss, and saves energy consumption of the pump. In addition, the power consumption of ultrasonic water meters during metering operation reaches the microampere level, and they are powered by batteries, with a service life of over 10 years.
