Track air flow in larger pipes with these sensors

| By Chemical Engineering

Hans Turck

This firm’s ATEX-certified flow sensors for gaseous media are now available with probe lengths of 100, 140 and 220 mm. The new extended probes (photo) significantly enhance the sensors’ functionality by allowing users to install the sensors in pipes with diameters of up to 440 mm. The IP67 stainless-steel sensors are certified for gas zone 1, and can be installed in the tube via a T connector. The sensors detect flow status of gaseous media, such as air, by evaluating the flow-induced temperature difference between the heated probe and the medium. — Hans Turck GmbH & Co.
