Description
UniFlow flow sensors determine the speed of oily and aqueous media in closed piping systems.
They operate according to the calorimetric principle, which states that a flowing medium absorbs and transports heat energy away. The tip of the sensor is heated, and the medium flowing past it cools it down again. The integrated temperature sensor detects the temperature at the measuring point, which is influenced by the flow speed. The flow speed of the medium can be determined by comparing actual temperature and the heating temperature.
The measurement method is independent from the flow direction.
Various plastic and stainless steel housing types, measuring ranges for water and oil, process connections and outputs can be combined.
Exist with digital output for alarms.
Range: 10 to 300 cm/s
