LG16 Liquid Flow Meter Series Compact Liquid Flow Meter for OEM Applications ■ Liquid flow rates up to 5000 pl/min ■ Resolutions down to sub nl/min ■ Totally non-invasive, pressures up to 200 bar ■ Digital I2C interface or analog out 0-5 V Product Summary The LG16 Liquid Flow Meter series enables fast, non-invasive measurements of very low liquid flow rates below 5 ml/min. This product line is especially suited for OEM volume applications requiring small sized components with high performance at low cost. Excellent chemical resistance and bio-compatibility are ensured: The flow path of the LG16 Liquid Flow Sensor is formed by a straight-thru glass capillary and end fittings. There are no obstacles in the flow path. Interface Options Digital Analog For more information on communication, please refer to section 3 of this document. 1 Sensor Performance Table 1: Model specific performance of LG16 (all data for medium H Corresponds with 4.8 V in analog version bFlow rate at which the sensor output saturates.

Communication with the Sensor Parameter The OEM flow sensor LG16 shows bi-directional, linear transfer characteristics. It can be ordered as analog or digital output version. Please see the following section for more details and the table on page 7 for an overview of the available options. Digital sampling time, 16 bit 74 ms Digital sampling time, 9 bit 1 ms 3.3 Digital Communication via I2C-Bus Digital communication between a master and the LG16 sensor runs via the standard I2C-interface. The physical interface consists of two bus lines, a data line (SDA) and a clock line (SCL) which...
