DAE Pumps UFM1000 Doppler Ultrasonic Flow Meters give a very accurate reading of the slurry flow through the dredge tubes. Unlike typical transit-time ultrasonic flow meters, which measure the time distinction in between upstream and downstream ultrasonic signals, Doppler circulation meters are optimal for applications with suspended solids or bubbles in the fluid, such as slurries or wastewater.
The DAE Pumps UFM1000 doppler ultrasonic circulation meter is housed in a NEMA 4X (IP-66) room and what is ultrasonic flow meter configured by the user using the front panel keypad. DAE Pumps Excavator Placed Dredge Pump conserves time and money over the traditional mechanical way of moving product.
A pump contour is a visual depiction of a pump's flowrate versus a particular level of the head. A slurry circulation meter is particularly made to gauge the flow price of slurries, which are mixtures of fluids and solids. The DAE Pumps UFM1000 circulation meter runs by transmitting ultrasonic audio from its sending transducer through the pipeline wall into the streaming fluid.
Pump contours are developed from information collected throughout testing of the pump's efficiency at the producer's center and offer the end-user with a chart of how the pump will operate over a set array. Hydraulic dredge pumps leverage the hydraulic power of excavators to run, getting rid of the need for dedicated source of power or pontoons related to conventional dredging devices.
