Flow Sensors

ifm efector flow sensors are a solid state alternative to mechanical switches for sensing the flow rate of liquids or gases. ifm efector flow sensors are extremely reliable with no moving parts that can become stuck or break in the flow process. These compact units are constructed of corrosion-resistant materials and 316 stainless steel parts.

A Variety of Sensor Solutions

efector Metris: A predictive maintenance sensor
efector Metris continuously monitors compressed air systems to identify leakage areas in plants. By detecting leakage areas, efector Metris can optimize compressed air usage, improve system performance, and reduce energy costs. The compact sensor is fitted with an integrated pipe to ensure easy mounting and proper installation depth. The sensor’s 4-digit numeric display provides air consumption readings. 

SI series flow sensors monitor fluids and gases
The SI flow sensor provides a SPST relay output. The sensor can be used in a variety of applications that require fluid or gas monitoring. The sensor’s 316 stainless steel sensor tip is inserted directly into the flow stream. The SI features a programmable microprocessor-based pushbutton setup with automatic high- and low-teach function.
 

SI series flow sensors for sanitary applications
Sanitary flow sensors are designed to monitor flow in food, beverage and other sanitary applications and meet 3A, FDA and EHEDG requirements. These sensors use a versatile adapter system that allows the sensor to fit multiple process connection sizes.
SI series flow transmitters monitor fluids and gases.
The SI flow transmitters provide a 4-20 mA analog output via an industry standard Micro DC connector. The SI's sensor tip is inserted directly into the flow stream. The microprocessor-based pushbutton setup features "teach" function. A bar graph display provides visual indication of operating status.
SF series two-piece flow system for remote indication
The SF Series flow sensor uses a control monitor and sensor probe for remote monitoring of fluids and gases. Control monitors feature potentiometer adjustable setpoint with bar graph display. Two models are available: DC switching output and AC relay output. The sensor probes use a unique modular adapter system that allows various mounting options.
