SCHMIDT® Flow Sensor SS 20.600 (Biogas)

Flow rates of gases - an important measurand in biogas plants

 

  • Chamber head (fast response time)
  • Flow and temperature signal
  • Probe length 120 … 1,000 mm (optional special length)
  • Remote sensor (optional)
  • Measuring ranges 0 … 10 m/s to 0 … 220 m/s, special measuring range
  • Special gas adjustment for different gases (optional)
  • Pulse outputs
  • ATEX:

- Gases, zone 2: II 3G Ex ec ic IIC T4 Gc

- Dust, zone 22: II 3D Ex ic tc IIIC T135°C Dc

  • Pressure resistant up to 40 bar
  • Temperature range +120 °C

 

The recording of flow rates in industrial processes is an important measure for energy saving, quality assurance in the production process, cost recording or distribution and much more.

 

The SCHMIDT® SS 20.600 Biogas especially adjustet for the use in biogas / sewage treatment plants.

 

  • Industrial processes
  • Waste handling technology
  • Biogas productioin

 

SCHMIDT Technology – Simply a question of better measurement
