New, particularly compact flow meter for accurate measurement of liquids

Essen, November 2012 The new efector mid from ifm electronic is an all-rounder. It monitors volumetric flow quantities, total quantities and temperatures. What is more, the measuring and evaluation units of this competitive sensor are combined in an extremely compact housing. Versatile in use, this advanced product is suited for different flow directions up to 600 l/min and liquids with a conductivity from 20 S/cm such as water, coolants, emulsions or water-based cleaning agents. Analogue, binary, pulse and frequency outputs offer various options to process the measured data. In addition, the magnetic-inductive sensor offers an integrated empty pipe detection and simulation mode. It is also available with EPDM seal and therefore KTW approved. This makes it perfectly suited for drinking water applications. During set-up, efector mid scores with easy, intuitive handling via three buttons situated directly on the unit. This allows immediate use of the sensor in the field. The unit wins with its compact design and a favourable price.
