TFX UltraClamp-on Ultrasonic Flow Meter
Model TFX Ultra Rugged, all inclusive
output options
Compact integral mount system for pipes 2” (50.8 mm) and smaller
Remote mount system for pipe sizes ½” (12.7 mm) and higher
Integral mount shown here.Integral transducers available in PVC (standard) or optional CPVC
• New generation of transit time flow meter:• Increased transmit power by over 3x• Compatible with ALL transducer types (do not need separate boards)• USB interface to PC (for UltraLink software) • Backlit LCD• Easier wiring (compared with TFXL)• CE mark
• 1% of reading accuracy• Measuring range -40 – 40 FPS (-12 – 12 MPS)• NEMA 4 (IP65); aluminum enclosure• CSA Class I Div. 2 / ATEX II 2 G Ex nA II T4
TFX Ultra Features
Other Notable Features/Improvements: Standard A/B USB programming connection Field replaceable fuse (resettable on DC powered) Optional keypad Universal AC (95-230VAC) power option Display backlighting Keypad/UltraLink configure for 500 kHz, 1 MHz or
2 MHz transducers Remote totalizer reset (via ModBUS, N.O. switch, or IP if equipped)
“GREEN” utilizes less than 5 watts (typical, 3x less than Onicon)

* Used with TFX Ultra and DXN only, 500 kHz configuration
ApplicationsConserve Thru ControlNorth Adams, MAGeo Thermal Application
TFX Ultras used to measure and control geo-thermal HVAC system. EPA also requires building owner to report ground water usage.
Well water can carry dirt and ice which destroys inline meters.
Client: Valley Water – Plainville, CT. Municipal Water ApplicationHigh velocity – no straight runs TFX Ultra replaced 901 DopplerResult: Improved accuracy
Applications
P&G Gillette Beauty & GroomingBoston, MA
Gillette’s sustainability project requires measurement and control of city water and process loops in 100 year old plant. Potential sale for 17 measurement points. Most lines cannot be shut down without halting production.
Applications
Ulster Uniform ServiceKinston, NYIndustrial Laundry
Since a high percentage of the water is evaporated through their dryers, Ulster uses a TFX Ultra meter to report waste water usage to save on their sewage bill.
Applications
Mercedes-Benz plant, Istanbul, TURKEY
Challenge:Customer dissatisfied with in-line BTU meters to measure energy
use through their 15 cogeneration lines. Considered to be high maintenance and were not thought to be reliable.
Solution: TFXE w/ DTTN, Clamp-on RTDsEasy installation, no process shut-down, and seamless drop-in to
their Siemens SCADA system via standard Modbus RTU were seen as key advantages in selecting Dynasonics.
Genoa, Illinois WWTP
Use clamp-on meters to prove output and performance of new pump; DFX Doppler and Transit time TFX Ultra both utilized, due to suspected pump cavitation. Meters showed a disparity, helped identify debris caught within the pump.
