Air flow meters for gases | IO-Link benefits
IO-Link technology with the SD family of air flow meters offers unparelled insights that streamline your operations. On this page, you'll learn more about reducing operating costs using visual data and leveraging real-time analytics.
Features of SD air flow meters with IO-Link technology
With IO-Link, the SD family of air flow meters and sensors can provide
- Flow rate, flow volume, temperature and pressure over a single wire
- Flow rate up to 20% above the stated measuring range
- No accuracy losses from digital to analog conversion
- High measurement resolution without scaling
- Current device status
- Internal memory for high and low flow rate, flow volume, temperature and pressure
- Automatic device replacement
IO-Link provides real-time analytics for compressed air usage
IO-Link technology allows you to visualize real-time data. Trends over time, consumption changes, process value changes, etc. can all indicate inefficiencies in your process. Real-time maintenance monitoring can significantly reduce operating costs.
SD flow meters use thermal technology and pressure sensors along with air flow sensors to provide accurate readings.
