Functional principle
The function of immersion flow sensors is based on the thermodynamic principle. The sensor is heated up by a few degrees Celsius compared to the flow medium. If the medium flows past the sensor, the heat generated in the sensor is dissipated. The resulting temperature is measured and compared with the temperature of the medium. The flow condition of each medium can be derived from the temperature difference obtained. Thus, TURCK flow sensors reliably and wear-free monitor the flow of liquid or gaseous media.
