SCHMIDT® Flow Sensor SS 20.415 LED

Thermal flow sensor for uni- or bidirectional measurement of air and gases with simultaneous detection of flow direction.

 

  • Thermopile head (very fast response time)
  • Flow velocity and switching signals
  • Probe length straight version:

- Default: 300 mm

- Special length (option): > 300 … 1,000 mm (step: 10 mm)

  • Probe length of angled version: 150 / 270 mm x 300 mm
  • Measuring ranges 0 … 1 / 2.5 / 10 m/s
  • Bidirectional measurement (optional)
  • Optimized adjustment for LF-applications (optional)
  • Extremely compact (electronics are integrated in probe tube)
  • Sensor element protected against mechanical stress
  • Linear analog output for measured flow velocity
  • Two switching outputs to signal flow direction and threshold
  • Operating status indication and serial number are visible, even when sensor is installed
  • Special version for laminar-flow monitoring in cleanrooms with quick-mounting system for simple installation beneath ceilings or at walls

 

Option: Monitoring of admissible speed interval (prescribed by official standards) of 0.45 m/s ± 20 % 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

 

SCHMIDT Technology – Simply a question of better measurement
