IFLO line of ultrasonic flow meters, engineered for precision, operational reliability, and suitability for demanding industrial environments. The IFLO ultrasonic flow meter is a sophisticated device that measures the flow of liquid within a tube, providing non-contact measurement solutions that enhance efficiency and control.
The IFLO series offers a versatile range of converters, including handheld, portable, wall-mounted, and modular forms. Coupled with sensor options such as clamp-on, insertion, and inline, these meters provide a comprehensive solution for nearly any application.
Versatile Models for Every Application
IFLO offers several distinct models of the ultrasonic flow meter, each tailored to specific operational needs.
1. Handheld Ultrasonic Flow Meter
The handheld model is the epitome of convenience, designed for non-contact measurement of liquid flow. To conduct a measurement, the sensor is simply installed on the outer wall of the pipeline. It is characterized by its small size, portability, and accurate measurement capabilities.
Key Specifications:
- Accuracy: ±1% for the flow meter and ±2% for the energy meter model.
- Pipe Compatibility: Applicable for tube diameters ranging from DN15 to DN6000.
- Flow Rate: Measures flow rates from 0 to ±10m/s.
- Media Conditions: Suitable for liquids with turbidity up to 10000ppm with low bubble content and temperatures between −30∘C and 160∘C.
- Data Logging: Features a built-in 32K memory that can store up to 2000 lines of data for analysis, reporting, and curve generation.
- Power: A rechargeable Ni-MH battery provides over 12 hours of continuous work time.
- Outputs: Includes 4-20mA, OCT, and relay outputs, with support for MODBUS, M-BUS, and HART communication protocols.
2. Portable Ultrasonic Flow Meter
Similar to the handheld version, the portable ultrasonic flow meter enables non-contact measurement by placing sensors on the pipe’s exterior. This model adds the convenience of a built-in printer and SD card memory, allowing for instant or scheduled printing of measurement values.
Key Specifications:
- Accuracy: ±1% for flow and ±2% for heat measurement.
- Pipe Diameter: DN15-DN6000.
- Flow Rate: 0 to ±10m/s.
- Media Temperature: −30∘C to 160∘C.
- Data Recording: Equipped with a thermal printer and an external SD card for data storage.
- Outputs & Inputs: Features 4-20mA, OCT, and relay outputs, along with 4-20mA inputs and temperature measurement capabilities.
3. Wall-Mounted Ultrasonic Flow Meter
For permanent installations, the Wall-Mounted ultrasonic flow meter is an ideal choice. The main unit can be installed on a wall or in a distribution box, boasting an IP67 protection level. It is compatible with a wide array of pipe materials, including steel, stainless steel, PVC, and aluminum, for diameters from 15mm to 6000mm.
Key Specifications:
- Accuracy: ±1%.
- Protection Level: Mainframe is rated IP65; transducers are IP68.
- Power Supply: Flexible power options of 220VAC or 8~36VDC.
- Communication: RS485 Modbus RTU Interface is standard.
- Outputs: Provides 1x 4-20mA, 1x impulsion, and 1x relay output.
4. Modular & Fixed Mounting Ultrasonic Flow Meters
The modular ultrasonic flow meter is designed for batch use, with a compact size perfect for installation on guide rails within instrument boxes or power cabinets. The fixed mounting model offers similar permanence and can be installed directly on the pipeline. Both models share the same high-performance parameters as the wall-mounted version, including ±1% accuracy, a wide applicable caliber (DN15-DN6000), and robust communication and output options.
Advanced Transducer Technology
The IFLO ultrasonic flow meter system utilizes a range of transducers to accommodate various pipe sizes and operating temperatures. These transducers ensure optimal performance across diverse industrial settings.
Transducer Type | Model(s) | Pipe Size (Measuring Range) | Temperature |
Clamp-on (Standard) | TS-2, TM-1, TL-1 | DN25-DN6000 | −30∘C to 90∘C |
High Temp Clamp-on | TS-2-HT, TM-1-HT, TL-1-HT | DN25-DN6000 | −30∘C to 160∘C |
Insertion | TC-1, TC-2, TP-1 | DN50-DN6000 | −30∘C to 160∘C |
Inline | Standard | DN15-DN1000 | −30∘C to 160∘C |
Rail Type | HS, HM, EB-1 | DN15-DN700 | −30∘C to 90∘C |
High Temp Rail Type | HS-HT, HM-HT, EB-1-HT | DN15-DN700 | −30∘C to 160∘C |
