S461 APPLICATIONS S461 BENEFITS

Cooling / Heating / Process Water Measures the actual flow and total consumption of various liquids
Purified Water Measurement The configuration through the dedicated smartphone app is easy and most user friendly
The S461 offers additional temperature sensor inputs and can therefore be used as energy meter
Fuel, Oils, Petroleum Products to monitor heat exchangers
Water Treatment Can be connected to any monitoring system, thanks to the various signal outputs:
Modbus/RTU (standard), 4... 20 mA / Pulse / Alarm-Relay (option), Modbus/TCP (option)
Food / Beverage
Flow and consumption can be measured in both directions, forward and reverse (Bi-directional
HVAC / Energy System Audits measurement)
Sanitary flow metering Robust industrial design with versatile installation
options for the display unit:
Hydraulic System Test Wall installation, DIN rail and pipe installation
Pharmaceutical Industry Can be used in stationary and portable applications
Measurement log files can be downloaded through
the mobile App, via USB OTG or by using the free S4A
Software
The mobile app offers instant overviews of daily,
weekly and monthly consumptions at a single click

S461 OPERATION PRINCIPLE

The SUTO ultrasonic clamp-on flow meter S461 has all it takes to measure reliable, easy and
accurate flow and consumption of liquids. Based on the transit time technology this flow meter
comes with unique features and outstanding performance.
The sensors are simply clamped onto the outside of the pipe and never come in contact with
the fluid. The main unit is either installed onto the pipe as well, at the wall or onto a DIN rail.
The configuration and setup is made through the wireless smartphone app S4C-US which can
be downloaded for free from the SUTO website, Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.
The app allows the user to set up the device as well as reading live values, logger configuration
and logger data read out.
By adding 2 clamp-on temperature sensors the Energy Meter Version monitors the efficiency Instant view of daily, weekly
of heat exchangers. and monthly consumption
The S461 comes also as portable version in a transport case. through mobile app.
