EGE Elektronik Sensor for Explosive Productseries STS 100

The EGE Elektronik Sensor for Explosive Productseries STS 100 is the authoritative choice for engineering teams managing fluids in potentially explosive industrial settings.

Description

The EGE Elektronik Sensor for Explosive Productseries STS 100 is the authoritative choice for engineering teams managing fluids in potentially explosive industrial settings. In chemical, pharmaceutical, and oil-and-gas environments, traditional mechanical flow switches—like paddles or turbines—pose a significant ignition risk due to friction-induced heat or static discharge. The STS 100 eliminates these hazards by utilizing a thermodynamic principle with no moving parts.
