Dwyer Series IEFB insertion thermal energy meter, BACnet MS/TP BACnet points list

Updated 12 November 2026

Short answer

The IEFB is an insertion electromagnetic flow meter with two RTDs that calculates heating and cooling energy. The RS-485 port runs Modbus RTU by default or BACnet MS/TP, set from the display. Over BACnet it reports velocity and both temperatures as Analog Inputs, and flow, power, energy totals, delta T and year/month peak values as Analog Values, with status bitstrings, peak dates and a few writable setup values.

This page lists 33 BACnet objects for the Dwyer Series IEFB insertion thermal energy meter, BACnet MS/TP — 7 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from Dwyer’s own free documentation, linked below.

BMS integration notes: Dwyer Series IEFB insertion thermal energy meter, BACnet MS/TP

Integration in brief

Pick BACnet in the display's communication wizard, set an address 0-127, then read power, the heat and cooling energy totals, flow and both temperatures. Set glycol concentration and process pressure to match the system so the energy maths is right.

Minimum points to map

The short list most integrators start with — enough to run the unit from a BMS. Map more as the job needs.

Integration notes

Check it against the live device. A points list tells you what the controller can expose; the unit in front of you may differ by firmware or installed options. This list is provided as-is for reference only and may contain mistakes — confirming it before you write, map or commission anything is up to you (terms). Easy BACnet scans a network for BACnet IP devices from an Android phone, reads every object on the Series IEFB insertion thermal energy meter, BACnet MS/TP and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.
