FBTU2X Ultrasonic Flow Meter

Wall Mounted Ultrasonic Flow and BTU Energy Meter

Non-invasive flow measurement for water, HVAC, utilities and energy monitoring.

FBTU2X is a cost-effective wall mounted ultrasonic flow meter with optional BTU / heat energy measurement capability for long-term flow and energy monitoring applications.

Using advanced transit-time ultrasonic technology, it provides accurate non-invasive flow measurement without pipe cutting, process interruption or pressure loss.

Transit-Time Ultrasonic ±1% Accuracy Clamp-On Option Optional BTU RS485 Modbus IP67 / IP68

Introduction

FBTU2X is designed for long-term flow and energy monitoring where installation simplicity, reliable measurement and low disruption are important.

It is suitable for a wide range of liquids including potable water, chilled water, cooling water, chemicals, reclaimed water, raw sewage, river water, plant effluent and ultra-pure liquids.

With IP67 protection for the converter and IP68 protection for the transducer, the FBTU2X is suitable for demanding industrial, commercial and utility environments while supporting stable long-term operation.

When paired with optional Pt100 temperature sensors, the FBTU2X can perform BTU and heat energy measurement for HVAC, district cooling and energy efficiency applications.
