FlowCERT

Chapter 4 Speedy Velocity Sensor
For channels without primary elements the Speedy Velocity Sensor can be
used with the FlowCERT to perform the calculation of Flow Q = Velocity x
Area for a wide variety of channel shapes and pipes.
Functional Description
The Speedy is designed to measure the velocity in all open channels and
pipes of any shape or size. The flow level (depth/height) is measured by the
ultrasonic transducer connected to the FlowCERT whilst the flow velocity
is measured by the Speedy velocity sensor, which utilises ultrasonic doppler
technology. The flow velocity measurement is transferred to the
FlowCERT using the proprietary communications protocol through the RS
485 terminals.
