High Pressure Air Flow Sensor

High precision integrated pressure sensor included.

High pressure air flow sensor.

This provides rapid response to the air or gas flow and amount and direction delivering a proportional output voltage. Sensirion s differential pressure sensors in a bypass configuration are the ideal cost effective choice for measuring air flow with high accuracy robustness and stability. Silicon chip design is created from thin film thermally isolated bridge structure containing both heater and temperature sensing elements. In a bypass configuration the differential pressure sensor is placed over a pressure drop element orifice.

Specifications and performance with 5 accuracy and an iso 17025 certified calibration with ability to consistently measure pressures as low as 0 1 psi you can have confidence. As gas flows across the sense element heat is transferred from upstream to downstream. At the simplest level an airflow sensor or more precisely a mass air flow sensor is a device with two pressure ports where gas flows from one port to the other see figure 1. Inside the sensor there s a sense element with a heated surface.

Pro software for easy and efficient analysis and logging included. Today the lx100 series of low pressure sensors are the most accurate and reliable sensors available for measuring interface pressure distribution as low as 0 1 psi. All airflow sensors operate on heat transfer flow and differential pressure.
