Description

Stop estimating consumption in your plant and get real, reliable flow data.
The S421 flow and consumption sensor is designed to deliver precise and stable measurement across a wide flow range. Thanks to its high resolution and fast sampling rate, it detects flow variations in real time, making it ideal for industrial applications that require continuous control.
Installation is carried out using a dedicated measuring section with R-type threaded or flanged connections, ensuring an optimal flow profile and consistent results. The sensor can store two calibration curves, enabling operation with two different gases without compromising accuracy.
Optionally, the integrated color display allows simultaneous visualization of all measured variables and simplifies device configuration—such as pipe diameter, gas type, and analog output scaling—making commissioning fast and intuitive.
Applications
Precise measurement of flow and consumption in industrial gas lines, even with two different gases, thanks to the integrated dual calibration curve.
Use in demanding industrial environments where robust and reliable equipment is required.
Easy integration into monitoring and automation systems via analog outputs, pulse signals, or Modbus RTU communication.
Consumption control and analysis in production processes, distribution networks, and energy efficiency applications.
Advantages
High accuracy and fast response, even with dynamic flow changes.
Wide measuring range, suitable for diverse process conditions.
Industrial design with IP65 protection, ideal for continuous plant operation.
Communication flexibility, enabling easy integration with PLCs, SCADA, or energy management systems.
