Keyence FD-Q10C Clamp-on Flow Sensor 8A/10A

SKU CH-KWTY-DV5XK MPN FD-Q10C

Clamp-on flow sensor measures liquid flow without pipe intrusion, offering IP65/IP67 protection and repeatability from ±2.0% at 0.5 s down to ±0.35% at 10 s response time

  • Product typeSensors
  • Clamp-on design installs without pipe cutting or process shutdown
  • IP65/IP67 enclosure withstands water jets and temporary immersion
  • Selectable response time from 0.5 to 60 seconds matches application needs
  • Repeatability tightens to ±0.35% at 10-second response setting
  • Operates on fluids from 0 to 85°C with ambient range -10 to +60°C

Industrial clamp-on flow sensor

The Keyence FD-Q10C is a non-invasive flow sensor that clamps onto 8A or 10A piping for liquid measurement. It suits plant engineers and maintenance teams who need flow data without cutting pipe or stopping the process.

Selectable response and repeatability

Users choose from seven response times ranging from 0.5 s to 60 s, with repeatability tightening from ±2.0% at the fastest setting to ±0.35% at 10 s. The display resolution steps between 0.01, 0.1 and 1 L/min to match the required precision.

IP65/IP67 enclosure rating

The sensor housing meets IEC 60529 ratings for dust-tight protection and temporary immersion, allowing installation in wet or wash-down environments. Buyers who need submersion beyond the rated depth or hazardous-area certification must select a different device.

Questions about this item

How often will the sensor's transducer surface need cleaning or replacement in continuous service?

The clamp-on sensor has no moving parts and uses a PPS/PES/PBT/SUS303/SUS304/SUSXM7 housing, so it typically requires only periodic external cleaning rather than scheduled transducer replacement.

What measurement limit is reached first during sustained high-flow operation at the 0.5 s response setting?

At the 0.5 s response time the repeatability is ±2.0 %, which is the widest tolerance in the specification and therefore the first accuracy limit encountered under sustained use.

How much does the housing temperature rise when the sensor runs all day in a 60 °C ambient environment?

The unit is rated for continuous operation up to 60 °C ambient with an IP65/IP67 enclosure, and the clamp-on design keeps the electronics outside the fluid stream, so self-heating is minimal.
