Interface and Pig Detector, Clamp On Ultrasonic - PSD

Minisonic PSD

Minisonic PSD (Pig * Sphere Detector) permits the detection of the passage of spheres and pigs in a pipeline. This detection is made when an acoustic signal transmitted through the pipe wall is interrupted. An external probe is used for liquids and an intrusive probe for gas.

* a Pig is a scraper or a separating sphere.

Typical Applications:

• Detection in a pipeline and counting the passage of spheres which separate the fluids for the monitoring of oil products or gas transportation and for the detection of product changes.
• All pipe diameters from 4 " to 60"

Advantages:

• high-velocity pig and sphere detection possible
• detection independent of the flow direction
• the probe can be buried
• easy of installation without cutting the pipe or the stopping of your process 
• no routine servicing needed
• no pressure drop 
• no moving parts 
• no straight length of pipe needed
• Fast response time
• no recalibration
