Titan Enterprises’ Most Versatile Ultrasonic Flowmeter now with ASCII Flow Streaming
As a specialist liquid flow meter manufacturer, Titan’s patented ultrasonic technology has led to an expanding line of ultrasonic flowmeters and patents ranging from signal processing methodology to novel mechanical design.
Titan’s most versatile Atrato® line of ultrasonic inline flowmeters now has ASCII flow streaming capability via USB and is reverse flow enabled, enhancing its capacity to be optimised for the user’s application, in addition to its datalogging and diagnostic features.
The sophistication of the Atrato’s ultrasonic technology, together with the proprietary embedded signal processing software developed by Titan Enterprises, allows both viscous and non-viscous liquids to be routinely measured precisely.
Neil Hannay, Senior R&D Engineer with Titan Enterprises, says: “The device’s USB connection gives the Atrato® flowmeter computer interface capability, enabling the user to directly monitor the flow rate being measured and alter the operating parameters using a laptop PC. ASCII flow streaming capability has been a logical next step in the advancement of these ultrasonic flowmeters.”
The additional ASCII flow streaming means the measured liquid flow is output at 10-20 times per second in human-readable text form (ASCII encoded). This stream of data can then be interpreted and processed by software running on the USB host.
The advantages of ASCII streaming for the user are 3-fold:
- The flow measurements are streamed directly over the USB connection to the PC.
- No additional pulse counting or analog interface devices are required.
- Flow measurements are configured directly to the user’s software system such as LabVIEW.
Titan’s Atrato® ultrasonic flow devices are ideal for low flow applications and precision process control, laboratory processes and chemical dosing. Ultrasonic flow meters are also becoming an important flow metering sensor within petrochemical process applications; about 40% of ultrasonic flowmeter sales fall into the oil & gas industry, refining and chemical.
Using Titan’s patented ‘time-of-flight’ ultrasonic technology, the Atrato® flow meters operate with unmatched accuracy over a flow range of 2ml/minute to 20litres/minute. The superior non-intrusive design and electronics, coupled with Titan’s unique algorithms, makes the Atrato® an advanced signal processing flow measurement system with no moving parts, virtually eliminating mechanical wear, critical for long-life and repeatability.

About us
With over 40-years experience in flow meter innovation, Titan Enterprises Ltd are a UK-based manufacturer of high performance solutions such as the Atrato ultrasonic flowmeter, Oval Gear flow meters and the low flow Turbine flow meters and instrument range.
Our knowledgeable team can offer either an off-the-shelf meter or fully bespoke flow system designed for a particular application whether it is a low cost OEM solution or a specialist flowmeter in exotic materials. Titan supplies innovative flow measurement solutions into a broad range of sectors, including medical, industrial, food and drink, laboratory and pharmaceutical, offshire oil & gas industry, power, chemicals and mining.
For higher volume users we can custom design a flowmeter to match exact application requirements and thus not compromise achievable results with a less than ideal sensor.
At Titan we endeavour to produce devices that are inherently reliable as well as manufactured using the latest and most economical production technology. All flow meters produced by Titan are designed and manufactured to ISO9001 and calibrated to an uncertainty of ±0.25%.
We produce chemically resistant, high accuracy digital flow meters that are not only competitively priced but are engineered to give long-term reliable performance.
