Perivascular and Tubing Flowmeters

The Transonic Flowmeters provide accurate and precise measurement of fluid volume flow in vivo, in vitro and ex vivo, which can be recorded with PowerLab data acquisition systems.

Overview

The Transonic Flowmeters provide accurate and precise measurement of fluid volume flow in vivo, in vitro and ex vivo, which can be recorded with PowerLab data acquisition systems. Based on patented ultrasound transit-time technology, its modular design allows mixing and matching of any combination of Perivascular or Tubing Flowmeter Modules in a dual or triple channel console to suit the experimental design. Consoles can also be ordered with a channel blank for future addition of another Flowmeter Module.

The Perivascular Flowmeter Module is designed for used with a range of corresponding flowprobes, which provides acute or chronic blood flow measurement from a single vessel in a range of animal species (mice through to pigs and sheep). A range of corresponding flowsensors (in-line or clamp-on) are also available for use with the Tubing Flowmeter Module to measure fluid flow in a range of laboratory tubing.

Please note that Transonic Flowmeters are not supplied with either flowprobes or flowsensors, and must be ordered separately.


Important Product Information:

All Transonic Perivascular Flow Systems, Perivascular Flowmeters, and Flowprobes will be discontinued on January 1, 2024. Prior to this, quantities may be limited due to supply constraints. Calibration, servicing, and repair for Perivascular Flowmeters will be supported through 31 Dec 2025.

Transonic Tubing Flow Systems and Tubing Flowmeters will continue to be sold and supported going forward without an end date. There will be some updates to Flowsensor availability, more information can be found here.
