Thermal flow measurement
18 October 2016
The SA flowmeter is designed to provide a new benchmark in thermal flow measurement, according to ifm electronic. Easy to use, it is optimised for a range of media including water, oils, glycol and air. In addition to measuring the flow rate, the device will measure the temperature of the medium.

The SA features a highly visible four-digit display, which the user can configure to show the flow rate or temperature and to alternate from red to green as required, and the housing can be aligned for optimum readability.
As only a simple probe needs to be inserted into the pipe, the SA is easy to fit and versatile, covering a range of pipe sizes from an internal diameter of 15 to 400mm. The user merely selects the probe length from 45, 100 or 200mm.
Accuracy and speed of response are vital, and the SA performs on both counts.
Switching outputs, analogue signals and IO-Link provide various options to further process the signals. That means that the user is all set for Industry 4.0.
