Water network monitoring
Flow measurement at over 200 underground measuring points in a German city's drinking water network
Urban water supply optimized with non-intrusive technology
"In sprawling cities with large populations, dense job centers and numerous facilities, optimizing the water supply is crucial, with leak detection being one of the most important measurements. This can be carried out effectively with flow measurement systems. But when it comes to water supply applications, they often need to be capable of operating underwater or buried - providing reliable data without impacting the water supply. They need to offer insights into the water network's dynamics, and be able to identify stagnation zones and unusual consumption patterns, as well as being able to open avenues for integrating artificial intelligence to further streamline water supply management, ensuring efficiency and sustainability in the city's water utility operations."

Product Solutions
The Flexim FLUXUS F532WD Series non-intrusive ultrasonic flow meter is the ideal solution for metering points in the drinking water network. Due to the use of its clamp-on technology, the FLUXUS F532WD Series enables a very simple and cost-effective installation of flow measurement points within an existing water supply network. The Flexim FLUXUS F532 WD Series belongs to the most reliable and accurate non-intrusive ultrasonic flow metering systems - it even measures flow rates as low as 0.03 ft per sec. The transducers are fixed to the pipe with broad stainless steel straps and secured in robust stainless steel housings. The transducers have IP68 protection and reinforced transducer cables.
- Extremely accurate down to flow velocities as low as 0.01 m/s
- No zero calibration needed and permanently drift-free
- Permanent coupling pads
