ALTOSONIC V, the pioneer in multipath custody-transfer
liquid flowmetering, is the most widely used meter in the
world.
Over one thousand units in operation and over 10 years of
experience in multipath metering, make KROHNE the first
address to contact with your metering needs.
Continuous evolution has generated meters with a proven
long-term reliability that no other company can match.
This ultrasonic flowmeter is a high
precision device for custody transfer of petroleum, petroleum
products and liquefied gas. |
It is
certified according to OIML R 117.
The Altosonic V utilizes
transit-time differential measurements.

Features and benefits
High measuring accuracy & repeatability
Accuracy: ± 0.15% of measured value
Repeatability: 0.04% band
Viscosity independent (Q/v = 1:1000)
Negligible effect of distorted flow profiles and swirl
High
reliability
Multiple beams ensure redundancy and validation of results
Redundant electronics
Internal diagnostics
Multi-measurement purposes
Standard volumetric flow rate and totalization
Additional information on Volume 15°C / 60°F (acc. to API), mass
flow, reference density and VCF calculation possible with external
transmitters
Low
capital cost
Large sizes available. High turndown ratio reduces the number of
parallel flowlines i.e. meters

Easy, low cost installation
Many options to suit wide range of (transfer) metering needs
Bi-directional flow measurement possible
Low
operational costs
No change re-routing to different meter on changing products
No re-calibration when changing products
Negligible pressure drop, saving on extra pump capacity, and
minimizing flow problems
Low
maintenance costs
No (mechanical) moving parts. No wear.
No need for periodical re-calibrations
Rugged and reliable design
