Description
The SCHMIDT® SS 20.500 flow meter offers the perfect solution for energy efficiency issues in various fields such as drying processes, exhaust systems, glove boxes, fume hoods, and many others. In addition to flow velocity, the sensor also measures operating temperature, and both parameters are displayed independently. This combined measurement reduces the number of required installation points, making installation simpler and, of course, reducing costs. Rotation angle values of 360° and tilt angle of 45° also simplify pipeline installation. The wide measurement range from 0.06 to 35 m/s and the possibility of high-precision calibration ensure measurement accuracy and reliability.
The patented sensor technology allows measurements in dusty environments. Sensor cleaning, if necessary, can be easily performed by the user. The streamlined shape of the sensor element enables accurate measurements even with imperfect flow characteristics. LED indication allows determining the flow level via four LED signals and checking the device’s functionality. The flow meter can output an analog signal both in 0...10V and 4...20 mA, automatically detecting the signal type based on the connection scheme. An optional ATEX version of the device is available, allowing use in hazardous environments and featuring a special coating that protects against aggressive media such as acetone, sulfuric and hydrochloric acids, and many others.
Upon customer request, high-precision sensor calibration confirmed by an ISO certificate can be performed. Calibration is carried out by SCHMIDT Technology on a special setup and can be repeated upon customer request.
