M-FLOW
High Precision Flow Meter for Optimization and Quality Assurance of Circuits within the whole Vehicle
Highly Precise Flow Measurement. Compact, Rugged, and Seamlessly Integrated into the Measurement Chain
The flow meter M-FLOW provides - together with the flow meter turbine - valid data for the optimization and quality control of circuits within the whole vehicle. For cooling circuits with water, glycol & refrigerants, for circuits with oils, injector systems, fuels, for the cooling of fuel cells. On the test bench, in the laboratory, during road tests and production.
Special Features
- Highly Compact and rugged solution with 360° pickoff
- Broad range of applications: water, oils, fuels, AdBlue and many other liquid media
- Precise results at every temperature thanks to linearization
- "Plug & Play" with simple configuration in IPEmotion
- Process reliability thanks to the direct digitalization of the values and a decrease in components
- Direct integration into the CAN bus without additional cabling or power supply
- Flow measurement in the desired unit, e.g. m3/hour, liters/minute, ml/minute
- Maximum linearity and 15 % less pressure loss with the new turbine design

The Turbine: Maximum Linearity with the Latest Rotor Blade Design Generation
The turbine is the centerpiece of the M-FLOW. With their new helical rotor blade design, the turbines developed by our partner Trigas offer a highly improved linearity and 15 % less pressure loss compared to conventional rotor blades. With regard to your individual requirements, such as the flow rate, we provide you with the perfect turbine – as for your forward and reverse flow measurement.
Suitable for corrosive liquids
For the measurement of corrosive liquids, we provide highly corrosion resistant housings, e.g. high-strength stainless steel 1.4460 / SS329. Please do not hesitate to contact us!
