Ultrasonic Meter
Understanding Ultrasonic Technology
An ultrasonic water meter uses high-frequency sound waves to measure the velocity of an
acoustically-conductive fluid moving through it. The velocity of the fluid is then converted to
volume throughput using sophisticated algorithms and electronics.
Transit-Time Technology
The MACH 10 utilizes transit-time ultrasonic technology. This technology takes advantage of
the principle that an acoustic signal travels faster with the flow than against the flow of the
fluid. These meters use transducers that are essentially transceivers, sending and receiving
the acoustic signals.
