EGE Elektronik Sensor for Explosive Productseries STS 111 K-L80

Description

The EGE Elektronik Sensor for Explosive Productseries STS 111 K-L80 is the authoritative choice for precision flow monitoring in restricted spaces where probe depth is still a priority. While most deep-reach sensors require large mounting ports, the STS 111 K-L80 utilizes a G1/4″ thread, allowing it to be installed in compact manifolds or small-diameter piping. The 80mm probe length ensures that the sensing tip bypasses turbulent wall effects and reaches the stable flow core of the medium.
