EGE Elektronik Sensor Air Flow Sensors Productseries LNZ 450 GA-K

The EGE Elektronik LNZ 450 GA-K is the authoritative choice for industrial applications that require more than a simple “flow/no-flow” signal.

Description

The EGE Elektronik LNZ 450 GA-K is the authoritative choice for industrial applications that require more than a simple “flow/no-flow” signal. The “GA” designation indicates a 4-20 mA analog output, which transmits a continuous signal proportional to the airflow velocity. This allows your PLC or Building Management System (BMS) to perform advanced functions such as variable fan speed control, precise trend logging, and predictive maintenance based on declining flow rates.
