The ACCUSONIC Model 8510 Flowmeter

The Accusonic Model 8510 provides accurate, reliable flow measurement for applications ranging from full pipes to partially full or surcharged pipes, open channels, streams, and rivers. The 8510 has the ability to measure up to 10 paths in the same measurement section, assuring superior performance even in the presence of severely distorted flow conditions. Additionally, the 8510 can measure flow in up to 5 separate pipes and/or channels simultaneously.

The 8510 can be fully integrated into a complete flowmeter network system via the Accusonic Model 7700 Master Control Unit. Further information on the Model 7700 may be obtained in the Model 7700 Networked Flowmeter System data sheet.
 
The complete offering of Accusonic transducers is available for use with the 8510, including designs for hazardous area installations, exposed pipes of all materials, buried or encased pipes, and pipes and channels that cannot be dewatered.

Flexibility: Measurable pipe and channel sizes can range from 8 inches (200 mm) to 600 feet (180 m). This versatility allows customers to utilize one flowmeter technology for a wide variety of applications, thus providing a common platform for maintenance, inventory, and training.

Accuracy: Utilizing multiple chordal path transit-time technology, the 8510 provides accurate flow measurement (± 0.5% for full pipes and ± 2.0% for partially full pipes and open channels) even in the presence of flow profile distortions and cross flow. No other flow measurement technology can offer this level of performance over the range of pipe/channel sizes and under such challenging operating conditions.

Economy: The 8510 is configurable to measure up to 5 separate pipes and/or channels simultaneously, thus significantly reducing the cost per measurement. This feature, combined with the meter’s high performance and minimal maintenance requirements, provides the 8510 with a lower cost of ownership and greater value than comparable flow measurement technologies.
