Flow sensors

What is a flow sensor?

A flow sensor is used to measure or regulate the flow rate of gases and liquids in pipes and ducts. Flow sensors are usually connected to meters, but can also be connected to a computer and digital interfaces. They are commonly used in HVAC systems, medical equipment, chemical plants and water treatment systems. Flow sensors can detect leaks, blockages, burst pipes and changes in fluid concentration due to contamination. They play a critical role in providing accurate monitoring and control of fluid dynamics, which is vital for efficiency, safety and optimal performance in many systems. They convert the physical amount of flow into an electrical signal that can be monitored, displayed and recorded on various applications.
