The IFM SM7000 is a magnetic-inductive flow meter for measuring conductive liquids in industrial piping systems. Its measuring range is 0.5…50 l/min with a G3/4 process connection. The device provides digital and analogue output options for flexible integration into automation systems. It is designed for water and water-based media with a conductivity of at least 20 µS/cm. The SM7000 supports continuous flow measurement and integrated temperature monitoring.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The magnetic-inductive measuring principle provides volumetric flow measurement without mechanical moving parts in the measuring tube. The SM7000 measures from 0.5 to 50 l/min. It is intended for electrically conductive liquids such as water and water-based media. The G3/4 connection supports integration into DN20 pipe systems. This makes the sensor suitable for industrial circulation and process-flow measurement.
The SM7000 provides two digital outputs and one analogue output. Depending on configuration, the outputs can provide switching, pulse, or analogue information. The analogue output can provide a scalable 4…20 mA or 0…10 V signal on applicable configurations. This allows direct connection to PLCs and process controllers. The output flexibility also supports flow quantity monitoring.
The sensor supports medium temperatures from -10…70 °C and a pressure rating of 16 bar. Its supply voltage is 18…30 V DC. The M12 connector provides the electrical interface. Gold-plated contacts support reliable electrical connection. Its compact design is suitable for machine and process installations.

The SM7000 provides continuous flow information for automated process control. Its configurable outputs allow the measured flow to be used for switching, counting, or analogue control. Temperature information can also be used for process monitoring. The sensor can therefore perform several monitoring functions within one device. This reduces the need for separate flow and temperature measurement components.
Install the SM7000 with the correct G3/4 process connection. Ensure that the liquid has sufficient electrical conductivity for magnetic-inductive measurement. Avoid air pockets and excessive deposits in the measuring section. Check the electrical connection and process seals during maintenance. Verify the measured flow against the application reference during commissioning.
