MFS02
Thermal Mass Flow Sensor
Optimal for ultra fast measuring of gas flow and
direction
Benefits & Characteristics
▪
▪
▪
Excellent solution for applications with high flow
rates and fast response time in CTA mode
Very high measuring dynamic with CTA mode
(10‘000‘000 : 1) without bypass
Detection of flow direction
▪
▪
Excellent for very low flow rates and leakage
detection with bridge mode
High chemical resistance against aggressive gases
and vapors
