CS flow sensor VA 400

The CS flow sensor VA 400 is based on the thermal mass flow principle.

It measure volumetric standard flow over a wide measuring range. The result is pressure and temperature independent. The sensor installation into the pipe is done through a ½" ball valve. This makes it possible to do the installation under pressure without shutting down the compressed air line.

The sensor is available in two measuring ranges VA 400-S (standard range), VA 400-M (max range). The unit can be ordered with and without local display.

The version with display shows the actual volumetric flow and the total consumption. Via the keyboard tube diameters and the consumption counter can be set.

Various settings such as gas type, flow unit, reference standards, can be set ex factory or through our service kit. The service kit consists of a PC software and a interface box which connects the sensor to the USB port of the PC.

Every sensor includes an analogue output (4…20mA) for flow and a pulse output for the consumption counter.

 

Features:

  • Insertion type sensor for installations under pressure
  • Thermal mass flow, independent of pressure and temperature
  • Velocity, flow and consumption can be displayed
  • IP65 casing provides robust protection in rough industrial environment
  • Very fast response time
  • High accuracy and wide measuring range
  • Tube diameters of  1" to 12" . Other diameters on request
