*1 Liquid must allow for the passage of an ultrasonic pulse, as well as not contain large air pockets or excessive bubbles. Detection may be unstable on certain non-standard pipes (i.e. lined pipes)
*2 Contact KEYENCE when the temperature of the pipe is greater than 85°C 185°F
*3 The zero cut flow rate can be changed in the settings. When using the unit with a low flow rate range, perform an origin adjustment when the fluid is not moving if you change the zero cut flow rate.
*4 This specification is valid when the flow velocity distribution is stable. This value does not take into account the effects of pulsation or fluctuations in flow velocity distribution due to facility factors. Convert the F.S. (full scale) listed in the table according to the rated flow range.
*5 IO-Link: Compatible with Specification v1.1 / COM2 (38.4 kbps) The setting file can be downloaded from the KEYENCE website. If using the unit in the environment where downloading the file is not possible via internet, contact your nearest KEYENCE office. IO-Link is either registered trademarks or trademarks of PROFIBUS Nutzerorganisation e.V. (PNO)
*6 When including the loads, please add 200 mA to this value.
