The OPTIPROBE is an electromagnetic insertion-type flowmeter for flow monitoring of conductive clean liquids in water and wastewater applications. The reliable and corrosion resistant flowmeter comes with different designs. Next to a basic version with fixed insertion length (Model A), the flowmeter is also available with an adjustable insertion length of up to 400 mm (Model B) that can be easily fixed and released by an integrated ball valve. This makes it the ideal flowmeter for retrofitting pipes without process interruption (hot tapping), allowing the flowmeter to be installed and removed under pressure.
The OPTIPROBE can also be an extremely flexible alternative for temporary or redundant flow measurements where extremely high accuracy is not required. It gets particularly cost-effective when used in large pipelines ≥DN200 / 8″. For temporarily or permanently flooded installations, an IP68 / NEMA 6P rated version of the OPTIPROBE can be provided. A special offshore coating or coating for burial installation is available on request. The insertion-type flowmeter offers various communication options and can be used in hazardous areas.
