    Install in minutes without cutting or altering pipes, ensuring zero interruption to your system.
  • No Leaks or Pressure Loss
    Keep your operations running smoothly and efficiently—no need to compromise on performance.
  • Compact, Adaptable Design
    Fits tight spaces and accommodates various pipe sizes (DN20–DN40), making it the perfect choice for diverse environments.
  • Seamless Data Integration
    Connect easily to monitoring systems via Modbus/RTU or 4–20 mA. Stay informed with real-time data for effective decision-making.
The clamp-on ultrasonic sensors send and receive signals through the liquid. By measuring the travel time of these signals upstream and downstream, the meter calculates flow velocity and volume with impressive precision.
The vibrant OLED display and intuitive keyboard allow for quick parameter settings. Lockable parameters help prevent unauthorised modifications, keeping your data and settings secure.
Access monthly consumption statistics and historical trends just like you would with advanced data loggers—ideal for in-depth usage analyses over extended periods.
Precise monitoring and measurement of water or other fluids enable optimised energy use, helping you identify opportunities for cost savings and sustainability improvements.

Because you can measure flow continuously without interruptions, spotting unusual consumption or leaks becomes faster and easier, ultimately preventing waste and extra costs.

Whether you have stainless-steel pipes or specialised materials, the clamp-on design fits seamlessly, ensuring no contact with the fluid and no risk of contamination.
