Flow meters, transmitters and switches

	Description	Media	Flow rate Line size
SM magmeter	SM magmeter provides flow rate, totalized flow and temperature in one sensor. The stainless steel design mounts directly in-line providing a compact, low-profile installation. Its high accuracy makes this meter ideal for dosing and batching applications and the price is attractive for most general flow applications.	Water and conductive liquids	0.08…160 gpm 1/4"…2"
SU ultrasonic flow meter	SU ultrasonic flowmeter provides flow rate, totalized flow and temperature in an obstacle free, stainless steel measuring tube. The stainless steel design mounts directly in-line providing limited pressure drop and maintenance efforts. Its ultrasonic technology is useful in applications with non-conductive media such as deionized water.	90% water content (conductive and non-conductive)	0.26...264 gpm 1"...2"
SV vortex flow meter	SV vortex flow meter provides flow rate and temperature in a compact housing The in-line meter monitors cooling water to keep equipment operating efficiently and maintain product quality.	Water-based liquids (95% + water)	0.26…26.4 gpm 1/2"…3/4"
SB mechatronic flow meter	SB mechatronic flow meter provides fast response time The in-line meter uses magnetic technology to sense the position of a spring that changes as flow increases or decreases to provide accurate flow rate regardless of the liquid media. Because of the built-in backflow preventer, the SB can be mounted horizontally or vertically without the need for laminar flow.	Water and oils	0.1…50 gpm 3/4"…1-1/2"
SA thermal flow sensor	SA thermal insertion-style flow sensor mounts in up to 16" diameter pipes The operating principle of the SA can reliably sense the flow and temperature of virtually any liquid and gas. Various process connections and probe lengths provide application flexibility	Water, oils, and gases	0.1…6150 gpm 1…27000 scfm 1/2"…16"
SD mass flow meter	SD mass flow meter reduces energy costs through leak detection The in-line meter monitors flow rate, flow volume, pressure and temperature of compressed air and specialty gases. It is ideal for detecting expensive leaks and ensuring actuators are operating at maximum efficiency.	Compressed air, argon, nitrogen, and CO2	0…15150 scfm 1/2"…10"
SI thermal flow switch	SI thermal insertion-style flow switch replaces mechanical switches Because there are no moving parts to jam or break, the SI flow switch is the ideal alternative to mechanical paddle wheels and flapper switches used in HVAC systems, pump run-dry protection and other basic flow applications.	Liquids and gases	3…100 cm/sec (liquids) 200…800 cm/sec (gases) 1/8"…8"

Protect your equipment and product with ifm flow sensors

Flow meters and flow sensors are used across manufacturing industries to monitor and control the flow of water, oils, coolants, and gases in applications such as cooling circuits, pump run-dry protection, dosing, and batching.

Traditional mechanical flow meters can break or stick, causing costly machine downtime. ifm’s robust electronic sensors reliably monitor even your most critical applications.

Installation is easy with either inline or insertion style products and, because most ifm flow sensors are IO-Link enabled, setup is achieved in a few minutes using the moneo | configure software on a laptop or the moneo | blue app that runs on a mobile device.
