The thermal SCHMIDT® Flow Sensor SS 20.700 is the perfect solution for extremely demanding industrial applications. It can be used for a diverse range of applications, such as compressed air monitoring, gas monitoring on process burners, consumption recording of gases and a great deal more.
Two specific versions „Oxygen O2 >21 %" and „Grease-free and Oxygen O2 >21 % (PWIS-free)" provide the required safety for applications with corresponding requirements.
The double-pin sensor head has been designed especially to meet the needs of so-called „heavy-duty applications“. Thanks to the sensor elements being completely encapsulated in stainless steel these are ideally suited for extremely demanding applications. The sensor is also resistant against aggressive media.
The SS 20.700 records flow velocity as well as media temperatures of up to 120 °C. It can be used in small tubes from DN40 upwards and can involve a sensor length of up to 600 mm to measure the volumetric flow rate in large channels and ducts. The sensor can be used in overpressure up to 16 bar.
This sensor is very easy to install: screw in the sensor using the compression fitting included, align the sensor in the gas flow and centrally in the pipe, connect it electrically – and job done!
The SS 20.700 operates without any moving parts and due to the measuring principle drifting or ageing do not play a role. This reduces the maintenance required for the sensor to an absolute minimum. Should cleaning nevertheless be necessary, it can be carried out very easily and in a variety of ways - simply the spirit of „heavy-duty“.
- Heavy-Duty applications
- Compressed air consumption measurement
- Inert gas flow measurement
- Flow rate control
- Compressor control
- Exhaust air monitoring
- Control of the combustion air at block heating plants and fuel cells
- Air mass flow measurement in burners and combustion engines
