Dalco Flow DFMa is an ultrasonic flow meter dedicated to metering pumps.
It is possible to specify the instantaneous flow rate and integrated flow rate, and output the instantaneous flow rate as a pulse signal or analog signal.

Furthermore, by combining with some models of Prominent metering pumps, it is possible to feed back the flow rate value detected by Dalco Flow to the pump and automatically adjust and control the discharge amount.

Models that support feedback control

* Gamma X
* Gamma XL (Delta)
* Sigma control, etc.

mechanism

An ultrasonic flowmeter that uses the pulsation peculiar to a metering pump. – Measurement is possible even if there is a large flow, pulsation, dirt on the liquid, _or viscosity. – No metal is used in the wetted parts, _and even low-conductivity liquids can be measured. * However, it cannot be measured in the case of non-pulsating flow, mixed turbidity, _or mixed air bubbles.

Measurement target

Water ・ Hydrogen peroxide ・ Sulfuric acid ・ Sodium hypochlorite (soda) ・ Hydrochloric acid ・ Aluminum sulfate

Chemical solution / condition that cannot be measured
● Chemicals containing air bubbles and slurries
– Measurement error will increase.
● Emulsified chemicals
– Measurement error will increase.
● Caustic soda (sodium hydroxide)
– Since ultrasonic transmission is difficult, measurement error becomes large.
● Other chemicals that are difficult to transmit ultrasonic waves
– If you do not have a track record, we recommend that you perform a test in advance.
