Single-Use PFA Turbine Flow Sensor
High Accuracy and Repeatability
Our innovative Equflow Single-Use PFA Turbine Flow Sensors can help to streamline your bioprocessing, with a high resolution output and high accuracy and repeatability.
Measure Flow Rate and Totalize
An ultra light-weight turbine rotor follows the fluctuation of flow very accurately and generates a high-resolution IR reflected signal. In either flow-controlled or monitoring applications, the PFA flow meter can measure flow rates and totalize.
Overview
The PFA flow sensor by Equflow has low flow sensing capabilities in a wide range of applications, and is suitable for clear, opaque, neutral, corrosive and aggressive liquids and for periodic monitoring.. An ultra light-weight turbine rotor follows the fluctuation of flow very accurately and generates a high-resolution IR reflected signal. In either flow-controlled or monitoring applications, the PFA flow sensor can measure flow rates and totalize.
With an accuracy rate of 3% of the reading, this stainless steel turbine flow sensor is ideal for outstanding performance in a wide range of applications. This PFA flow sensor is developed to perform a fast exchange of the flow tube. The flow tube is assembled in the flow system. For measurement and calibration, the easy-to-remove housing is placed around the tube for measuring.
