What is the significance of using a thermal measurement principle for flow sensing?


The thermal measurement principle offers high sensitivity and accuracy, allowing effective detection of flow rates even at low volumes. This ensures reliable performance across various industrial applications.

How does the unidirectional flow design benefit installation processes?


The unidirectional flow design simplifies installation by standardising flow direction, reducing the risk of incorrect setup and ensuring consistent performance in air flow monitoring.

What are the advantages of having dual switching outputs?


Dual switching outputs provide flexibility in application integration, allowing users to select between PNP or NPN configurations based on their specific system requirements.

How does the degree of protection influence sensor performance in industrial settings?


An IP65 rating ensures the sensor is dust-tight and protected against water jets, enhancing its durability and reliability in harsh industrial conditions, thereby maintaining consistent operation.

What impact does the temperature coefficient have on flow rate accuracy?


The temperature coefficient affects measurement consistency by compensating for temperature variations, ensuring accuracy in flow rate monitoring within specified operational limits.
