Functional principle
The FTCIs from TURCK monitor flow rates of liquids passing through the sensor reliably and wear-free. These sensors are designed for flow rate monitoring. Based on the thermodynamic principle, electrical energy is converted into heat energy. The heat generated in the probe is conducted away by the flowing medium. The dissipated heat quantity is used as a direct measurement of the medium's flow speed. The integrated microprocessor evaluates the data and calculates the flow rate. Based on the applied principle, the media temperature is also indicated to the user. In addition to the standardized electrical output signals for industrial applications, the TURCK flow meters also indicate the current flow rate on their 3-digit, 7-segment display.
