The Katronic KATflow 200 offers external clamp ultrasonic measurement without the need for pipe cutting, a large data logger, flexible K1N/K4N sensors, and IP65 rating.

KATFLOW KATRONIC – A PROFESSIONAL HANDHELD ULTRASONIC FLOW MEASUREMENT SOLUTION FOR INDUSTRIAL SYSTEMS

The KATflow is a high-end handheld ultrasonic flow meter from Katronic, specifically designed for inspection, maintenance, and diagnostics of pipeline systems. Using clamp-on sensor technology, it eliminates the need for pipe cutting or direct contact with the fluid, completely reducing downtime and leakage risks. With a powerful configuration including a single measurement channel, RS232 communication, a 100,000-measurement data logger, the included KATdata+ software, and a variety of K1N or K4N sensor options, the KATflow 200 provides a flexible and highly accurate flow surveying solution for any plant.

1. Introduction to Katronic and Ultrasound Measurement Technology

Katronic is a brand specializing in developing clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters. Their solutions are widely used in water supply systems, wastewater treatment, HVAC, power plants, food, pharmaceuticals, and other industrial processes.

The key feature of Katronic technology is the use of two ultrasonic sensors mounted externally on the pipeline, completely eliminating the need for pipe cutting or direct contact with the fluid. This method minimizes downtime, reduces leakage, and supports flow monitoring at multiple locations. This is a significant advantage when businesses need to check existing meters or assess pump performance without altering the existing piping system.

2. KATflow – A Portable Water Flow Measurement Solution

The KATflow 200 is a handheld ultrasonic flow meter, an ideal choice for inspection, maintenance, and diagnostic work on pipeline systems. The standard configuration KF200-1-03-2-1-4-0 includes one measurement channel, RS232 communication, a data logger storing 100,000 measurements, KATdata+ management software, and a dedicated shockproof carrying case. The device boasts a robust IP65 protection rating.

Both sensor lines support non-invasive measurement in conjunction with suitable mounting accessories. The K1N configuration is suitable for large pipes, while the K4N is optimized for smaller pipes. Additionally, 5-point calibration certificates can be ordered upon specific project requirements.

3. Practical Applications in Industry

• System Survey & Inspection: Assists in checking the flow of cooling water, boiler feedwater, circulating water, RO water, HVAC systems, and process piping.
• Performance evaluation: Useful for checking pump performance, comparing data with installed flow meters, and surveying water distribution between pipeline branches.
• Food and pharmaceutical plants: External measurement methods minimize interference with stringent sanitary piping systems.
• Energy system: The collected flow data greatly assists in assessing water balance and optimizing overall plant operational efficiency.
