Sensirion Launched Flow Sensor for Flow Rates Below 100 ml/min

Precise / Measurement in the Ml range. The reliable, inexpensive SLQ-HC60 fills a gap in the existing range of products for precise measurement in the low millimeter range. Up to now, precise, reliable and inexpensive sensors for measuring flow rates in the low milliliter range in automated systems have been difficult to find. Inexpensive mechanical solutions such as small paddlewheels do not adequately meet the requirements of many applications. Sensirion AG has now filled the gap between sensors for high flow rates and its own line of microsensor products for the microliter and nanoliter ranges. The new water resistant flow meter SLQ-HC60 operates without moving parts and grants highest reliability and media compatibility. Flow rates below 100 ml/min can be measured for a wide range of media. Also the detection of bubbles in the microliter range is possible.

The new MEMS-based sensor device is specifically designed for use in automated systems. This small, highly sensitive flowmeter enables precise measurement of dynamic flow rates with a response time of less than 50 ms. The SLQ-HC60 requires a supply voltage of 24V and provides a 0-10 V analog output signal. Media separation ensures that liquids only get into contact with glass, PEEK and TEFZEL during the measuring process. Protection rating is IP65. The simple, straight flow channel of the SLQ-HC60 has an inside diameter of 1.8 mm and can be connected to 1/8’’ or 3 mm plastic hoses via threaded couplings.
