Flow Sensors

A flow sensor/meter for liquid. KEYENCE has developed various clamp-on types to enable stable flow rate measurement with no pipe modification. These devices can be used on small tubes to large pipes. The lineup also includes electromagnetic and Coriolis flow sensors as well as environmental resistant and sanitary types.

Products Lineup

FD-X series - Clamp-on Micro Flow Sensor

Clamp-on Micro Flow Sensor FD-X series

The FD-X Series flow sensors monitor low flow of any liquid by clamping directly on pipes or tubes up to 14mm.

Catalogues Price

Features

Utilize Everywhere

Detect flow rates as low as 0.1 mL/min or shot amounts as low as 0.001 mL
Any liquid flow rate can be monitored including:
Viscous greases, chemicals, and sanitary liquids
Compatible with metal pipes and resin tubes from 0.12" - 0.5"

Zero Impact on Process

Simply clamp the flow sensor to any pipe or tube
Completely non-invasive
No machine downtime or risk of clogging, pressure loss, or contamination

FD-Q series - Clamp-on Flow Sensor

Clamp-on Flow Sensor FD-Q series

The FD-Q Series simply clamps-on to the pipe requiring no pipe modification and detects all sorts of liquid flow.

Features

Mounting and Integration

The FD-Q can be mounted in 60 seconds without any pipe modification. The unit clamps on to the outside of a pipe with 6 standard screws and can even be done without shutting the machine down.

Liquids and Pipes

The FD-Q series can detect virtually any type of liquid. This includes the flow of water (including deionised), oils, chemicals, consumer products, etc. This detection is possible through both metal and resin pipes.

FD-R series - Clamp-on Flow Meter

Clamp-on Flow Meter FD-R series

The FD-R Series clamps-on to pipes up to 200 A without pipe modifications, to perform both precise monitoring or general sensing.

Product Features

No Obstructions

The FD-M Series leaves behind conventional flow sensing technology where paddle wheels or other obstructions can cause clogging or incorrect monitoring. The FD-M has no moving parts allowing liquid to flow freely while monitoring.

Product Applications

Versatility

The FD-M is commonly used in a wide array of industries such as grinding, injecting moulding, and welding. It is more tolerant than conventional sensors to variations in temperature and fluid type. Additionally, the FD-M's analogue capability broadens the scope of possible applications.
