Vane Wheel Flow Sensors TS90/80

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Vane Wheel Flow Sensors TS90/80 are designed for measuring flow velocity in air and gas applications, even at low velocities and challenging flow conditions. They feature a vane wheel flow sensor with a non-contact inductive proximity switch for scanning the vane wheel rotation.
Key Features:
  • Low sensitivity to indirect oncoming flow and low pressure drop due to optimized design.
  • Corrosion-resistant with a working temperature range up to +125°C.
  • Operates largely irrespective of gas density and composition, with a turndown ratio up to 1:125.
  • Optional application in hazardous areas (category 2, zone 1).
Applications: Suitable for measuring flow velocity in various settings such as vehicle wind tunnel tests, aircraft component testing, workplace measurements, and ventilation systems. It can measure flow velocities ranging from 0.15 m/s to 50 m/s.
Design and Materials: The sensor features a T-head probe with a direct cable outlet. It is constructed from zinc alloy, stainless steel, aluminum, epoxy resin, polysulfone, and ceramics.
Calibration and Measurement Uncertainty:
  • DAkkS Calibration: Measurement uncertainty is less than 0.9% of the measured value with linearization.
  • ISO Calibration: Measurement uncertainty is less than 1.5% of the measured value.
Temperature and Pressure: The permissible temperature range is -20°C to +125°C, with short-term exposure up to +140°C. The sensor is designed for atmospheric pressure applications only.
Ex-Protection Options: The sensors offer various explosion protection options for gas and dust environments, suitable for different zones and categories.
Accessories and Connection: The sensors can be connected using various plugs and extension rods, with options for IP67 and IP40 protection. Accessories include extension rods and direction indicators.
Manufacturer Information: Höntzsch GmbH & Co. KG, located in Waiblingen, Germany, provides contact details for further inquiries.
