【NEW】WFK2 Series Introduction

Product catalog summary
Overview: The WFK2 Series Karman Vortex Flow Sensor, known as FLUEREX, received the 2018 Good Design Award. It is designed for controlling coolant in semiconductor manufacturing equipment and supports fluorine liquids with excellent electrical insulation. The sensor is compatible with flow rates ranging from 0.4 to 250 L/min and supports fluids with low global warming potential.
Specifications: The sensor is available in various models (WFK2-005, WFK2-020, WFK2-050, WFK2-100, WFK2-250) with different port sizes and flow rate ranges. It features a fluid temperature measuring function, eliminating the need for a separate temperature sensor. The sensor supports fluid temperatures up to 95°C and is ATEX compliant.
Features: The sensor offers easy flow rate adjustment with options for a needle or cock type manual valve. It includes a user-friendly 2-screen color liquid crystal display that can be rotated 90° for easy reading. The display can show temperature, accumulated flow, and set values simultaneously, with selectable colors.
Output Functions: Various output functions are available, including analog output, switch output, pulse output, and IO-Link compatibility. The sensor supports instantaneous flow rate, temperature, and accumulated flow measurements, with features like peak hold reset and accumulated flow reset.
IO-Link Support: The sensor supports IO-Link, a digital communication standard for sensors and actuators, enabling parameter remote control, constant monitoring, and error notification. It allows connection to Ethernet networks, making devices IoT-ready.
Applications: The sensor is ideal for cooling and temperature control in semiconductor manufacturing equipment, such as etching, grinding, dicing, and CVD processes. It is also used for quantitative management of coolant in spot welding machines and flow rate abnormality detection.
Additional Information: The sensor is compatible with various fluids, including Fluorinert™, Novec™, Galden®, and Opteon™. It is designed for easy integration into existing systems, with features like plug & play and housing identification.
