Overview
The T-Easic® FTS thermal flow sensor measures flow and temperature of liquids in accordance with the calorimetric principle. Available as an industrial variant with VISTAL® housing and display or as a hygienic stainless-steel variant, the T-Easic® FTS is suitable for a wide range of applications. Depending on the requirements, the sensor features two digital outputs for limit value monitoring, a pulse output for volume recording or an analog output for continuous recording of measured values. A special feature is integrated empty pipe detection for optimal dry-run protection in pumps. Parameterization can be done via IO-Link or the display. Media taught-in at the factory such as oil and water accelerate commissioning; other liquids can be calibrated quickly and easily.
- Flow monitoring and temperature measurement in one sensor
- Optimized for water and oil; teach-in option of other liquids
- IP 67/IP 69 enclosure rating and IO-Link 1.1
- Industrial design in VISTAL® housing with 180°-rotatable OLED display
- Stainless steel hygienic variant, completely CIP-/SIP-capable, process temperatures up to 150 °C
Advantages
One sensor, two measurements.
The T-Easic® FTS thermal flow sensor offers flow monitoring and including empty pipe detection and temperature measurement in just one device. This means a single measuring point is sufficient for both measurements. This saves time during commissioning and reduces the risk of contamination to the bare minimum.
Auf Basis des kalorimetrischen Messprinzips misst der Sensor Durchfluss und Temperatur von nahezu jeder Flüssigkeit.
The T-Easic® FTS is available in two variants. The hygienic variant with stainless-steel housing withstands the challenging conditions in CIP and SIP systems. The industrial version with rugged VISTAL® housing offers an OLED display and operating buttons to read the measured values directly on site.
Thanks to the two specific housing variants, the T-Easic® FTS can be integrated into a wide range of application environments and offers flow monitoring and temperature measurement in one device.
Solves a wide range of measuring tasks for pump monitoring and control
The sensor detects the pipe as “full” as soon as its probe tip touches the medium and outputs this information as a switching signal. This is how pumps can be reliably protected against idling.
The T-Easic® FTS features two push-pull digital outputs that can be configured either as a switching output for limit monitoring, a pulse output for volume detection or a digital input.
Process monitoring is simple and user-friendly thanks to continuous measurement using the optional analog output or IO-Link. The flow sensor can be parameterized via IO-Link or the display.
Clever and multifunctional – the T-Easic® FTS makes various tasks possible: Empty pipe detection, pump protection and monitoring, flow measurement, temperature measurement as well as volume detection and monitoring.
Save time and money thanks to quick and flexible installation
Three different probe lengths allow for flexible adaptation to the respective pipe diameter. This makes it possible to integrate the T-Easic® FTS into a wide range of applications. This saves on storage costs.
Suitable mounting adapters and T-connectors are available for the most varied system conditions. Advantage of the T-connector: The probe tip is always optimally aligned in the center of the pipe.
Water and oil are taught in at the factory, other liquids can easily be added via teach-in.
