EGE Elektronik Sensor Air Flow Sensors Productseries LNZ 450

The EGE Elektronik LNZ 450 series is the authoritative choice for industrial air-handling applications.

Description

The EGE Elektronik LNZ 450 series is the authoritative choice for industrial air-handling applications. Unlike mechanical pressure switches or flap-type monitors that can fail due to dust accumulation or bearing wear, the LNZ 450 operates on the calorimetric (thermal) principle. This means the sensor has no moving parts, making it exceptionally resistant to the vibration and contamination typically found in industrial environments
