Flow meter Saunier Duval Isofast C 28 E A Ref. S5720200
It detects the flow of water when a tap is opened and commands the ignition to produce domestic hot water. If it fails, you will notice that no hot water comes out even when the tap is open. This flow meter is compatible with several boilers, including the Isofast C28E, Isofast C35E models, and others from the Isofast range, as well as from the ThemaClassic, Themafast, Thematek, Isomax, Isotwin, and Opalia ranges, among others.

How to check if ref. S5720200 is the part for your boiler
What determines it is not the boiler model, but the reference printed on the part you already have installed.
- Find the reference printed on the installed part and check whether it matches the catalogue reference S5720200. If it is not visible, do not identify the part from its shape alone.
- Check the full boiler model on its data plate and look for it in the model associations on this page.
- Compare the connections and physical body with the original part before installation.
- If anything is unclear, send us a photo of the marking via WhatsApp before placing your order.
Symptoms and faults that the flow meter S5720200 resolves.
The flow meter detects the passage of water to activate the domestic hot water. These are the typical symptoms and what to do:
Common symptoms and faults
- 01
When opening the hot water tap, it takes a long time to get hot, or it doesn't heat up at all.
Cause: The flow meter does not detect the water flow in time, and the burner is delayed or does not start in domestic hot water mode.
Test with the tap fully open: if it improves significantly, check the available flow rate before the part itself.
- 02
The burner does not start to heat domestic hot water even though there is a clear demand at the tap.
Cause: Without a pulse from the flow sensor, the control board does not receive the start command for domestic hot water.
Check the electrical connector of the sensor: a loose or corroded terminal can cause this symptom.
- 03
The flow of hot water fluctuates, with short interruptions while using the tap.
Cause: The turbine intermittently gets stuck due to scale, and the sensor loses and regains the signal without warning.
If you have hard water in the area, check for limescale buildup in the domestic hot water circuit of the boiler, not just in the part.
- 04
The water comes out hot at first and gradually cools down without you turning off the tap.
Cause: The sensor stops sending a stable signal halfway through use, and the PCB reduces or cuts the burner thinking that the demand is decreasing.
Check if the problem also occurs when using other taps at the same time: it could be a drop in network pressure and not the sensor.
These symptoms can have more than one cause. If your boiler displays a fault code, send it to us via WhatsApp along with a photo of the labeling, and we'll tell you if this is the part.
