New ultrasonic water meter for instantaneous measurements<br />

Announcing the launch<br />

of a battery-powered<br />

ultrasonic water meter intended<br />

for measuring f<strong>low</strong> rate<br />

instantaneously and p<strong>res</strong>sure<br />

and consumption in water<br />

piping (standard EN 14154 for<br />

water works), water distribution<br />

systems and other industrial<br />

applications. The compact, highly<br />

accurate ELIS FLOMIC FL5024 has<br />

long-term stability over a wide<br />

range of measured values, and<br />

conforms to the IP68* protection<br />

class. The meter does not need<br />

any external power supply, does<br />

not include any moving parts and<br />

has significantly <strong>low</strong>er hydraulic<br />

losses. The technical parameters<br />

and other featu<strong>res</strong> of the FLOMIC<br />

water meter make it suitable<br />

not only for water consumption<br />

measurements but also for waterleak<br />

tracking and monitoring of<br />

the general condition of watersupply<br />

networks where the meter<br />

output signals can be connected<br />

via data transfer systems to<br />

remote computer control stations.<br />

The measurement method<br />

utilised by these meters is a singlebeam<br />

transit-time pulse method,<br />

based on evaluation of the time<br />

needed for an ultrasonic signal<br />

to cross the distance between<br />

two measuring transducers. In<br />

the standard version, the meter<br />

measu<strong>res</strong> instantaneous f<strong>low</strong> rate<br />

(in m3/hour) and the total volume<br />

of water passed through the<br />

meter (in m3) in the given f<strong>low</strong><br />

direction. The measured data<br />

is converted into passive pulse<br />

output signals.<br />

New simplified safety compliance testing<br />

unique tester has been<br />

A introduced to market, in that<br />

it sources both AC and DC steadystate<br />

voltage for Hi-Z and Lo-Z<br />

instruments, thus simplifying<br />

safety compliance testing.<br />

The new Fluke® PRV240<br />

Proving Unit provides a safe and<br />

convenient method for “test<br />

before touch” TBT verification of<br />

electrical test tools without placing<br />

the electrician or technician in<br />

potentially hazardous electrical<br />

environments, which would<br />

generally involve using known<br />

live voltage sources.<br />

In contrast to using a known<br />

live source, using the PRV240 does<br />

not require personal protective<br />

equipment (PPE) for tester<br />

verification. Use of the PRV240<br />

reduces the risk of shock and arc<br />

flash compared to verification of<br />

test instruments on high-energy<br />

sources in potentially hazardous<br />

electrical environments because<br />

the PRV240 provides a known<br />

voltage in a controlled, <strong>low</strong>current<br />

state in accordance with<br />

safe work practices.<br />

The pocket-sized PRV240<br />

sources 240 V of both AC and DC<br />

steady-state voltage for testing of<br />

both high- and <strong>low</strong>-impedance<br />

multimeters, clamp meters, and<br />

two-pole testers, eliminating both<br />

the need for multiple verification<br />

tools and the use of a known<br />

high-energy voltage source for<br />

test instrument verification.<br />

To avoid accidental contact,<br />

the voltage is supplied through<br />

recessed contacts that are<br />

activated only when test probes<br />

are inserted into the modules<br />

insulated access points. A single<br />

LED indicates the sourcing of the<br />

voltage to verify the test tool,<br />

simplifying test tool verification<br />

without the need for PPE.<br />

The proving unit can perform<br />

up to 5,000 tests per set of four AA<br />

batteries and comes with a TPAK<br />

magnetic hanging strap for easy<br />

accessibility.<br />
