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.
