Product Overview
Compact flow sensors for hygienic areas are designed to monitor liquids and gases in pipes used in food, beverage and pharmaceutical processing. The SI6 series uses calorimetric sensing technology to detect flow conditions and support reliable process monitoring. Its compact design, stainless-steel wetted parts and hygienic process adapters make it suitable for sanitary installations.
Hygienic Flow Monitoring for Industrial Processes
These hygienic flow sensors monitor liquids and gases in pipelines where cleanliness and process reliability are important. Their inline installation makes them suitable for compact piping systems in food and beverage production and other sanitary industrial applications.
Stainless Steel Construction and Washdown Protection
The sensors feature stainless-steel wetted parts and robust housing designed for demanding environments. IP67/IP69K protection helps protect the device against moisture and intensive washdown conditions commonly found in hygienic production areas.
Adjustable Flow Settings and LED Indication
The flow range and switching points can be adjusted using the pushbutton on the sensor. A multicolour LED display helps operators identify the nominal flow range and selected switch point. Electronic locking prevents accidental setting changes, while factory-setting restoration supports easier configuration management.
Flexible Installation and Process Integration
A selection of hygienic threaded and clamp adapters allows integration into different piping arrangements. The compact cylindrical design and M12 electrical connector support installation in suitable industrial monitoring systems. The correct adapter and model should be selected according to the process requirements.
