Ultrasonic Flowmeters
-
Titan’s range of inline ultrasonic flow meters, now with ASCII streaming, is a genuine breakthrough in flowmeter technology. Utilising our patented ‘time-of-flight’ ultrasonic technology, the flow measurement devices are able to operate with excellent accuracy over wide liquid flow ranges.Work on developing a viable, accurate ultrasonic meter began in 2001 with a corporate decision to develop the best non-invasive small bore flow meter in the world as part of a long-term strategic plan. One of the foremost fluid engineering establishments (The Cranfield Institute of Technology) was commissioned to develop the device in collaboration with our R&D team at Titan. The resulting patented ultrasonic technology has led to an expanding line of Atrato ultrasonic flowmeters which have the adaptability to provide solutions for a number of OEM issues.Titan’s development of unique algorithms and techniques has resulted in a new generation of ultrasonic flowmeters that work well at low flow and deliver accurate measurements within a wide range of industrial processes.

Temperature & Pressure Switches
-
Pressure switches survive shock and vibration during all operating conditions and phases of flight and have been qualified to temperature conditions that exceed RTCA DC-160 requirements. Testing and design that goes above and beyond what is required has helped to make Measure Tech the "go to" manufacture when airlines need a new switch to help improve dispatch reliability.

Ultrasonic Sensing
-
Ultrasonic sensing is the measurement of the time between an ultrasonic signal being sent and received. The interval between these two signals is typically referred to as time-of-flight (ToF) and depends on the distance the ultrasonic wave travels until it is reflected due to an impedance change and the speed of the ultrasonic wave. The basic equation time = distance / speed can be used to measure fluid level, fluid identification/concentration, flow, or proximity.
