Type VTH25 Cartridge turbine flow sensors Cartridge for industrial applications 4. ..160 l/min DN 25

Description

The VTH25 series plug-in flow sensors have been specially developed for integration into fittings. Thanks to their compact design, they can be easily installed in existing systems with minimal space requirements. Typical areas of application for these sensors include:

Detection of drinking water withdrawals

Applications in water treatment

Leakage monitoring systems

The sensor consists of two main components: a turbine module and a Hall effect sensor. This design enables a very compact construction and facilitates integration into different fittings. A high-quality sapphire bearing ensures high reliability and a long service life for the measuring system. Thanks to the low start-up speed, even low flow rates of around one liter per minute can be reliably detected.

Key features

Constant pulse rate with minimal serial variations

High accuracy in flow measurement

Very low wear and tear and long service life thanks to robust bearing technology

Space-saving and compact design

Successfully used in numerous series applications

The fluid flowing through the sensor is first divided into several partial flows by a guide vane. These flow evenly onto the impeller from different directions and set it in rotation. The rotational movement of the impeller is then converted into an electrical output signal.

Since the impeller is equipped with magnets, a Hall effect sensor detects the movement and generates a frequency-proportional square wave signal. The uniform flow largely balances the forces on the bearings, significantly reducing wear. In addition, particularly resistant materials such as sapphire and carbide ensure an exceptionally long service life for the sensor.
