When documenting cleaning processes and high-pressure applications, the mechatronic measuring principle with its fast response time is the first choice. The integrated temperature sensor and the versatile diagnostic functions via IO-Link save both additional hardware costs and maintenance costs. Moreover, the use of a stainless steel housing makes the sensor resistant to standard cleaning agents.
All measured values can be transmitted to the controller in digital form, without any conversion losses, via IO-Link. Flow and temperature values can thus be easily documented for each cleaning process.
Fast response time
The mechatronic measuring principle is characterised by an extremely fast response time allowing for even short spray bursts during the high-pressure cleaning process to be precisely recorded in terms of quantity.
No inlet and outlet pipe lengths required
Turbulence and air bubbles do not impact the measure- ment. This allows for the sensor to be installed anywhere in the pipework.
With IO-Link, monitoring of a high-pressure cleaning system, including documentation of the cleaning processes, can be implemented easily and quickly with little hardware costs, for example for use in modern slaughterhouses. ifm offers all the required hardware and software components in order to also provide supermarket chains, among others, with the requested transparency.
