Flow measurement instruments
FLOWSIC100 Process

Reliable and precise volume flow measurement in processes

Your Benefits

  • Reliable and accurate measurement even at low gas velocities
  • Low-maintenance, as no moving parts
  • Measurement is independent of pressure, temperature, and gas composition
  • Does not affect gas flow, as non-contact measurement
  • Approved for use in zone 2 explosive environments(ATEX)
  • User-friendly operation and device diagnosis via MCU control unit and SOPAS ET operating software

Overview

Reliable and precise volume flow measurement in processes

With the FLOWSIC100 Process gas flow measurement devices, measurements can be taken at pressures up to 16 bar – even in zone 2 explosive environments. The sender/receiver units are available as hermetically sealed designs made of stainless steel or titanium. The standard system contains an MCU control unit and 2 sender/receiver units or a single measuring probe. The MCU is used for signal input and output and to calculate reference values (standardization) or mass flow. It also serves as a user-friendly LCD interface.

At a glance
  • Corrosion-resistant transducer made of stainless steel or titanium
