Inlet channel

Flow-rate measurement in open channels

Process data

Measuring task:

Flow measurement

Measuring point:

Flume

Measuring range up to:

0 … 1 m

Medium:

Wastewater

Process temperature:

0 ... +40 °C

Process pressure:

0 … 0 bar

Special challenges:

Condensation, fog, wind, solar radiation

Application

Sewage and rainwater are often transported to the treatment plant in open collection channels or flumes. The flow rate is measured at various points in these channels. Measurement of the water flow at the inlet and outlet of the treatment plant is the basis for the calculation of tariffs and operating costs.
