Flow Measurement & Control


Configurable ultrasonic flowmeter

June 2010 Flow Measurement & Control

ifm electronic’s new in-line flowmeter provides accurate feedback in critical flow applications. The SU7000 ultrasonic flowmeter is designed to simultaneously monitor flow rate, detect fluid temperature and provide a totaliser function for a variety of flow applications. With its compact design, the meter is intended for small diameter pipes – 25 mm or less. It is ideal for volumetric flow quantities up to 200 l/min.

The meter provides a four-digit numeric display of the liquid’s flow rate, total quantity accumulated and temperature. The set points are established through simple pushbutton setup. The meter can be programmed to provide switching output (flow rate and/or temperature), pulse output (volume) or analogue output (flow rate or temperature).

Utilising the ultrasonic sensing principle, the SU7000 series has no moving parts, a high level of accuracy over large flow ranges, an integrated display for flow rate with pushbutton setup and the capability to monitor a variety of media.
