Ultrasonic Open Channel Flow Meter Advantages

Gallop ultrasonic open channel flow meters deliver precise, non-contact flow measurement for irrigation channels, wastewater plants, and industrial discharge. With advanced ultrasonic sensors, robust construction, and an intuitive interface, these meters are designed for reliable performance in tough environments and convenient operation for field engineers.

◆ Non-contact measurement

Non-contact technology avoids corrosion, pressure loss, sensor damage from dirty fluids, and wear and tear, helping ensure durability and lower maintenance costs.

◆ High accuracy measurement

The flow meters provide precise water flow measurement, even in fluctuating flow conditions, with ±1.0% accuracy and level-to-flow conversion using built-in formulas.

◆ Multiple flow calculation algorithms

Built-in multiple algorithms are available for various standard water channels, including weirs such as V-notch, rectangular, and trapezoidal weirs, as well as flumes such as Parshall and Palmer-Bowlus flumes.

◆ Wide measurement range

Suitable for channels from 0.3 to 10 meters wide.

◆ Easy installation and flexible structure

The user-friendly design allows quick setup in open channels and weirs. Wall-mount or panel-mount controllers are available, with split waterproof type or compact type options for more convenient use.

◆ Long-term stable performance

Advanced anti-interference technology, robust construction, and temperature compensation support stable outdoor use and reliable performance in tough environments.

◆ Real-time monitoring

Advanced data processing ensures instant and reliable flow rate measurements.

◆ Remote monitoring options

Optional GPRS, RS485, and 4G output are available for data integration.

◆ Manually adjustable blind area

The blind area can be manually set to shield interference signals near the probe.

◆ Automatic temperature compensation

The transducer has a built-in temperature sensor for real-time automatic temperature compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What types of open channels can your meters measure?

A: Any non-full flow channel using a flume or weir, including Parshall, V-notch, rectangular, and trapezoidal weirs.

Q: Do I need to build a flume for accurate readings?

A: Yes, flow rate is calculated from water level and channel geometry. A flume or weir is required for volume accuracy.

Q: Can I get data remotely?

A: Yes, models support Modbus RTU, RS485, and wireless (GPRS/4G) communication.

Q: What is your MOQ for wholesale orders?

A: MOQ for wholesale pricing is 10 units. For OEM, MOQ is 30–50 units depending on customization.

Q: Do you offer calibration support?

A: Each unit is factory calibrated. We can also provide simulated calibration reports or local partner assistance.
