Yusufeli Dam Hydroelectric Power Plant Ultrasonic Flow Meter Installation

This is an ultrasonic flowmeter project implemented at the Yusufeli Dam, which is the largest dam in Turkey and the fifth largest in the world. It is a joint project with Rittmeyer, a company of which we are the official distributor.

The ultrasonic flowmeter project we implemented at Yusufeli Dam — recognized as Turkey’s largest and the 5th largest dam in the world — stands as a remarkable achievement that pushes the boundaries of engineering excellence.

This prestigious project was carried out in strong collaboration with Rittmeyer, our Switzerland-based partner of which we are the official distributor.

🔧 The Pinnacle of Technology and Engineering Harmony

📍 The ultrasonic sensors used in the project were installed directly inside the penstocks, ensuring reliable measurement performance even under the most challenging hydraulic conditions.

📊 A total of 48 sensors were successfully commissioned across 3 separate units.
🔹 For each penstock, 16 sensors were deployed to perform measurements on 8 distinct cross-sectional planes.
🔹 This advanced configuration enabled a flow measurement accuracy of better than 1%.

🌊 The Standard for Accuracy and Reliability

In mega-infrastructure projects like Yusufeli Dam, effective water management depends on the reliability of measurement systems.
The system developed through the AQUADATA–Rittmeyer collaboration was designed to deliver long-term data accuracy and operational safety, ensuring high-performance monitoring for years to come.
