Single-Use PVDF Turbine Flow Sensor
Two Models Available
This single-use flow sensor can be clip mounted, if exchanging the tube occurs infrequently, or can be used with the tube holder if a more solid device is desired and exchanging the tube occurs infrequently.
Fast Exchange of Flow Tubes
Our innovative Equflow Single-Use PVDF Turbine Flow Sensors can help to streamline your bioprocessing, with low flow capacities that have been developed to perform a fast exchange of flow tubes in a single-use application.
Overview
With accuracy and repeatability, our PVDF Flow Sensor is available in both clip-mounted and tuber holder versions for flexibility within your bioprocess. Also suitable for long term measurement, these sensors have a flow range of 0.3 – 20 L/min and high resolution square wave output. The exchangeable turbine flowmeters are designed to perform a simple and fast exchange of the Turbine flowtube in single-use applications, especially for the Pharmaceutical and Biotech industries. The single-use flow sensor produces an accurate pulse signal, proportional to the flow, which can easily be transmitted and processed.
