Process Control & Measurement > Flow Sensors
Flow Sensors
ProSense flow sensors monitor liquid media and provide reliable flow indication (display), detection (switch output) or measurement (analog output). Mechanical or mechatronic devices sense flow, while thermal and vortex technologies can monitor flow and/or temperature. Magnetic-inductive flow meters (magmeters) measure flow and temperature of conductive media.

- Immune to rapid temperature changes of media
- Fast response time of <10ms
- 3/4" or 1" FNPT process connections
- Integrated check valve design allows the sensor to be mounted horizontally or vertically
- IP65 / IP67
- 2-year warranty
ProSense® Magnetic-Inductive Flow Meters
AutomationDirect's ProSense FMM Series (-1001 and -1002) Magmeters are designed to reliably detect the flow rate of conductive media up to 158.5 - 160 gallons per minute.
- The stainless steel, mechanically-robust design mounts directly in-line providing a compact, low-profile installation
- A 4-digit numeric display with pushbutton setup indicates flow parameters
- Two outputs are available to remotely monitor the flow parameters and temperature
- Simple to setup, easy to install and with no moving parts, a reliable alternative to traditional flow meters
- 1/2 to 2" NPT female process connections
- 5-year warranty
ProSense® Thermal Flow Sensors
ProSense FTS series thermal flow sensors, with no moving parts, are a reliable alternative to mechanical flow switches and other flow sensing technologies.
- Optimized for flow measurement of water, glycol solutions or air
- Volumetric flow rate measurement in pipe sizes up to 16 inches ID
- Measure fluid/air temperature in addition to flow
- 4-digit, two color alphanumeric display with pushbutton setup
- 100 mm or 200 mm probe
- 5-year warranty
ProSense® Vortex Flow Sensors
ProSense VFS series vortex flow sensors offer a very cost-effective solution optimized for monitoring water and deionized water flow in industrial applications. Vortex flow sensors are a reliable alternative to other flow sensing technologies and are a simple, low cost, and proven method for measuring flow of water-based liquids.
- Optimized for measurement of water and deionized water flow applications
- Volumetric flow rate and temperature measurement
- TFT color display with pushbutton setup
- 1/2" or 3/4" NPT rotatable process connections
- Two outputs selectable for switch, frequency or analog signals (VFS-1001 series)

Liquid, Gas and Steam Differential Pressure Transmitters ... New!
The ProSense DPTW series differential pressure transmitter series is precision engineered for accurate differential or gauge pressure measurement of a wide variety of liquids, gases, and steam applied to both pressure sensing ports.
- Wet-wet design ideal for liquid, gas, and steam measurement of differential, positive, or negative pressures, hydrostatic liquid level, and flow
- Integral pressure port manifold with 1/4 inch female process connections and built-in equalizing valve
- Digital filter function to dampen pulsations and provide a more stable output and display
- Bright backlit 6-digit LCD display
- Rugged NEMA 4X (IP65)
ProSense® Variable Area Mechanical Flow Meters
ProSense FG1 Series mechanical variable area flow meters provide visual indication of flow rate for water or petroleum based fluids. These meters provide +/-5% full scale accuracy when monitoring liquids with viscosity and specific gravity similar to the factory calibrated fluids and a repeatability of +/-1% that is important for cyclical applications requiring consistent readings. Two adjustable flow limit pointers are available to provide preset indication of high, low, or normal flow rates.
- Constructed of high-impact polysulfone plastic (body, piston, cone), with brass fittings (1/2 and 3/4 NPT models)
- Available with 1/2", 3/4" or 1" NPT process connections
- Measurement ranges:
from 0.25 - 2.5 GPM (1 to 10 LPM) to 4 - 28 GPM (20 to 100 LPM) - 1-year warranty
