SCHMIDT® Flow Sensor SS 23.400 ATEX

Thermal flow sensor for uni- or bidirectional measurement of flow rate of air and gases with simultaneous detection of the flow direction in an explosive atmosphere (Zone 2).

 

  • Thermopile head (very fast response time)
  • Flow velocity and switching signals
  • Probe length 130 … 300 mm
  • Measuring ranges 0 … 1 m/s to 0 … 20 m/s
  • Bidirectional measurement (optional)
  • Detection of flow direction (optional)
  • Sensor programming (optional)
  • Cleanroom sensor
  • Extremely compact (electronics is integrated in sensor tube)
  • Sensor element protected against mechanical stress
  • Linear analog output for measured flow velocity
  • Two switching outputs to signal flow direction and threshold
  • ATEX gases, zone 2: II 3G Ex nA IIC T4 Gc

 

  • Laminar flow monitoring in cleanrooms
  • Monitoring of overflow
  • Cooling air monitoring
  • Flow measurement in test benches
  • Mass and volume flow measurement

 

SCHMIDT Technology – Simply a question of better measurement
