SONARtrac® Process Water Monitoring System PW VF-100

CiDRA’s breakthrough SONARtrac flow measurement technology now delivers the same compelling price/performance combination to produced and process water applications that is experienced by customers in multiphase slurry applications.Process Water Volumetric Flow - VF100


CiDRA’s SONARtrac volumetric flow technology is the new paradigm for process flow measurement technology. By installing non-intrusively on existing process lines, the SONARtrac clamp-on system allows on-line volumetric flow measurement on virtually any type of pipe material and lined pipe, without any coupling gels or special adjustments.

SONARtrac monitoring systems do not utilize ultrasonics; they employ patented sonar array processing techniques to listen to, and interpret, naturally occurring and coherent flow turbulence in process piping with a high degree of accuracy and repeatability.

Now you can experience the same high reliability, proven performance, and value of CiDRA’s multiphase SONARtrac product flow technology on your produced and process water applications with the SONARtrac PW VF -100.

Sonar Technology
CiDRA’s SONARtrac technology represents an innovative new class of industrial measurement instrumentation. This sonar technology utilizes array processing techniques similar to those used in the field of sonar processing. CiDRA’s proprietary sonar technology was initially developed for flow and compositional measurement in one of the world's most demanding environments: downhole, offshore oil and gas production. CiDRA has taken the proven reliability of its SONARtrac technology to provide new measurement capabilities and provide insight into the monitoring and optimization of industrial processes.
