EGE Elektronik Sensors with Integrated Amplifier Productseries SC 440/5-A4-GSP

EGE Elektronik Sensors with Integrated Amplifier Productseries SC 440/5-A4-GSP represents the gold standard for monitoring flow in large-scale industrial fluid systems.

Description

EGE Elektronik Sensors with Integrated Amplifier Productseries SC 440/5-A4-GSP represents the gold standard for monitoring flow in large-scale industrial fluid systems. In many industrial installations, standard probe lengths fail to reach the center of the flow profile in wider pipes, leading to inaccurate readings. The SC 440/5 variant addresses this with an extended 80mm probe, ensuring the sensor tip is positioned optimally for the most representative flow measurement.

Features

  • Integrated Evaluation Amplifier: Built-in electronics enable direct PLC connection, saving cabinet space and reducing wiring complexity.

  • Extended 80mm Probe: Specifically designed for deeper immersion in larger pipe diameters to capture accurate flow profiles.

  • Thermodynamic Measurement: No moving parts in the flow stream, preventing mechanical failure and ensuring long-term stability in dirty media.

Applications

  • Large Pipe Flow Monitoring: The 80mm probe is ideal for ensuring accurate measurement in pipes with diameters exceeding DN80.

  • Cooling System Protection: Monitoring coolant flow in large induction furnaces and heavy-duty industrial power systems.

  • Pump Dry-Run Prevention: Detecting the absence of liquid in large intake lines to prevent cavitation or pump damage.

  • Chemical and Process Industry: Monitoring the movement of aggressive fluids in pharmaceutical or chemical production lines.
