Conductivity meter IVAR.PT-LFS for IVAR.PERMASOFT cartridges – 3/4" connection, 20 µS/cm limit
Code: IVAPTLFSProduct detailed description
The IVAR.PT-LFS meter (code IVAPTLFS) is installed in the pipework together with an IVAR.PERMASOFT or PERMASOFT ALU demineralisation cartridge and continuously monitors water quality. It measures conductivity digitally and compares it with a fixed limit of 20 µS/cm, so when filling a heating system you can see straight away when the cartridge capacity is used up.
Indication
- green LED – correct operation
- above 20 µS/cm (at 20 °C) the green LED goes out and the red one starts flashing
- measurement without temperature compensation
Technical data
- 3/4" connection
- max. operating temperature 40 °C, max. operating pressure 10 bar
- V4A electrode, cell constant c = 0.6
- long-life battery power, approximately 6 years
The meter is an electrical device – at the end of its life it belongs at a collection point, not in household waste.

Frequently asked questions
What do the LEDs on the meter indicate?
The green LED is lit during correct operation. When conductivity exceeds 20 µS/cm (at 20 °C), the green goes out and the red flashes – the cartridge capacity is exhausted.
Which cartridges is the meter used with?
With the IVAR.PERMASOFT (IVAPTPS5000) and IVAR.PERMASOFT ALU (IVAPTPS5000ALU) demineralisation cartridges, which have a 3/4" connection.
Does the meter need mains power?
No. It is powered by a long-life battery lasting approximately 6 years.
Does the meter have temperature compensation?
No, it measures without temperature compensation. The 20 µS/cm limit is defined at a water temperature of 20 °C.

IVAR designs, develops and manufactures highly energy-efficient heating and plumbing systems. We have over 10,000 catalogue items - mass-produced products and unique items - in addition to customised systems and combinations of complex products. And it’s all “Made in Italy”.
Vision
To make life easier for our clients, our clients' customers and our employees, thanks to our ability to be constantly innovative.
Mission
To design and manufacture advanced hydronic solutions that reduce installation complexity and energy consumption.
“Made in Italy” adds value
IVAR has been producing heating and plumbing system components since 1985: valves for heating bodies, direct heat metering modules, heat cost allocators, pipes and fittings, substations for heating systems, distribution manifolds, radiant panel systems, and components for solar and geothermal systems. And it’s all “Made in Italy”.
Over 200 people are employed at our manufacturing facilities in Prevalle (in northern Italy’s Brescia province). The site has been designed to streamline our many production and operational stages.
The Italian headquarters also acts as a hub for the wider IVAR Group, set up with the goal of distributing products beyond Italy’s borders. The group now has 11 branches, in Australia, Belgium, China, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, the United States and Tunisia.
Know How
Research, development and numerous laboratory tests guarantee that our clients’ requests can be translated into new high-efficiency products.
The stages required for production take place internally, beginning with hot forming, which is carried out at our subsidiary Valmon Stampati. Our continuous implementation of projects under the Industry 4.0 initiative also allows us to take full advantage of new releases in technology and IT to improve our manufacturing efficiency.
As a company, IVAR is constantly evolving. Every day, we invest in strengthening our products, in improving our production processes and in attaining new patents and certifications.
