Radar-ultrasonic
Integrated flow meter

The HKI 305 radar-ultrasonic integrated flow meter is an in-house online flow instrument for urban storm/sewage networks and river outfalls. It combines radar and ultrasonic gauging for full and partial pipe, mounts at the pipe crown, and needs little O&M in harsh network conditions.

Key Highlights

Dual-wave flow, top mount, no entry

Dual-wave radar plus ultrasonic, automatic full/partial-pipe switching, measured from the pipe crown — no confined-space entry, ultra-low power, a corrosion- and impact-resistant housing, and little O&M.

Full / partial-pipe dual-wave flow

UsesRadar + ultrasonic dual-wave flow mode, auto-switches modes for full and partial pipe.

Crown mounting

The sensor mounts at the pipe crown, Reduces silt and debris effects on the instrument.

Install without manhole entry

No confined-space entry, Much safer for people and equipment Easy later O&M.

Compact · easy to install

Compact and easy to install, Fits network installs sites, flexible placement.

Ultra-low power · long pit life

Ultra-low-power design, Suited to long use in unpowered pits.

High protection · corrosion-resistant materials

High ingress protection, Class 10 corrosion resistance, with a corrosion-, acid/alkali-, and impact-resistant housing for long use in sewage networks.

Applications

Network flow, built for drainage

Urban storm/sewage mains, river outfalls, and sewage networks — full and partial pipe, top mount, and long online life even without pit power.

Full and partial pipe,
auto-switch flow measurement

Radar and ultrasonic waves work together. The unit judges pipe fill and switches modes: velocity and level in partial pipe, a seamless handoff when full. An embedded model outputs flow over Modbus-RTU to the network platform.
