SCHMIDT® Flow Sensor SS 20.415 LED

Thermal flow sensor for uni- or bi-directional measurement of the flow rate of air and gases with simultaneous detection of the flow direction.

 

  • Thermopile head (very fast response time)
  • Flow and switching signal
  • Probe length straight version: 300 … 1,000 mm (optional special length)
  • Probe length angled version: 150 / 270 x 300 mm
  • Measuring ranges 0 … 1 m/s to 0 … 10 m/s
  • Bi-directional measurement (detection of flow direction, optional)
  • Vertical adjustment (for laminar flow applications, optional)
  • Sensor programing (optional)
  • Cleanroom sensor
  • Extremely compact, because electronics are integrated into the sensor tube.
  • Sensor element in the chamber head and protected against mechanical stress.
  • Linear analog output for measured value output, two switching outputs to output the flow direction and threshold.
  • Operating status indication and serial number of the sensor visible on the sensor, even when it is installed.
  • Special version for the laminar-flow monitoring in cleanrooms with quick-mounting system for simple installation in cleanroom ceiling systems and walls.

 

Option: Monitoring of the speed interval of 0.45 m/s ±20 % (prescribed by official standards) with optical signaling at the sensor (LF status indicator).

 

  • Laminar flow monitoring in cleanrooms
  • Flow monitoring in pharmaceutical production, semiconductor manufacturing, food production, LCD manufacturing and optical industry
  • Integration into insulators, FFUs and flow boxes
