SONOFLOW Clamp-on Sensor

The ultrasonic flow sensor SONOFLOW CO detects the flow rate of liquids in plastic tubes quickly and reliably. The non-invasive sensor has no contact to the medium and is particularly suited for applications with strict hygienic standards. The clamp-on mounting concept eliminates any risk of contamination or leaking. Besides multiple off-the-shelf standard sizes, SONOTEC also offers a sensor solution for combined flow-bubble detection (SONOFLOW CO.56). Different housing materials, such as aluminum, stainless steel or plastics, are also available. 

The contactless flow sensor SONOFLOW CO combines precise measuring performance and high quality with a unique compact and cost efficient sensor concept.

Customer Reviews

Jeff Poland, President and CEO at Century HLM, on our air bubble sensors:

“We started with SONOTEC's ABD05 series sensor. After our research and interview process SONOTEC had the only sensor capable of meeting 60601 3^rd edition specifications for a fail-safe free hanging non-intrusive arterial line air detector sensor.” [Read more]

Jochen Hübner, R&D and Quality Management Representative at Herrmann Apparatebau GmbH, on our Air Bubble Sensors:

“When searching for a suitable sensor our engineers came across SONOTEC. We chose the air bubble detector ABD06 of the SONOCHECK-series – in a customized version. The small size and the approved safety functions were the main reasons that spoke for the sensor.” [Read more]
