Measure and transmit flow rate, pressure, and temperature of industrial gases, such as air, argon, CO2, and nitrogen, flowing through your system. These transmitters are ideal for applications where temperature and pressure can fluctuate. To calculate flow rate, they generate a small amount of heat, then measure the cooling effect your gas has on it. Also known as transducers, these transmitters convert measurements to an electrical signal that can be interpreted by receiving devices, such as remote displays and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). As flow, temperature, and pressure increases, the output signal increases. For your receiving device to interpret the signal, you will need to calibrate it for the measurement range and output signal of the transmitter. They only give accurate readings within the rated measurement range. Mount them directly inline with your system. They measure correctly no matter their mounting orientation.

A digital display makes it easy to read measurements and adjust settings based on your gas. These transmitters have two configurable outputs, and each output can only be wired for one measurement (flow rate, pressure, or temperature). Outputs configured as digital pulse send flow data using spikes of voltage that match the input voltage of the transmitter. One of the outputs can be wired for IO-Link, so you can change settings and receive error messages remotely from your PLC or computer. You’ll need an IO Link controller (not included) to connect to your interface.

These transmitters are calibrated with air but still measure accurately when used with other gases.

Often used with chillers and in refrigeration systems, these gauges display the temperature of ammonia relative to the pressure measurement. Also known as compound gauges, these measure both pressure and vacuum.
