SCHMIDT® Flow Sensor SS 20.60 HT, High-Temperature Sensor up to 350°C

SCHMIDT Technology has developed a high-temperature version for the flow sensor of the SS 20.60 series, suitable for operation at temperatures up to 350°C — briefly even up to 400°C.

Externally, the new sensor differs from the standard devices only by its white ceramic head. Most modifications have been made inside the device, and the components have been designed to meet the increased requirements.

A completely redesigned electronics system handles the processing of measurement results and provides a digital or analog signal. A new status indicator directly on the sensor provides information about the current flow velocity as well as the sensor's status. Also new is the output of the measured medium temperature.

Thanks to the modular concept, the sensor can optionally be supplied with a fieldbus interface. Fieldbus sensors relieve the higher-level control system by providing pre-processed measurement data, e.g., in the form of kg/h or m³/min, and additionally give access to the sensor status, so that threshold or measurement range breaches and possible sensor faults can be immediately reported to the plant operator.

Application examples:
Mass flow control in combustion processes, burner control, flow measurement in process gases, volume flow measurement in test stands, speed measurement in drying systems and sterilization tunnels
