Ultrasonic flow transducer BBFM-Q315K

clamp-on

Overview
The BBFM-Q315K is a 315 kHz ultrasonic flow measurement transducer designed for clamp-on external pipe mounting. It is intended for clamp-on ultrasonic flow meters, pipeline flow monitoring, temporary flow testing and for pipes where penetration of the pipe wall is undesirable.
