The S421 Thermal Mass Flow Sensor offers 4 different signal output options. It can have an isolated analog and pulse output to read out the flow and the total consumption. The Modbus/RTU and Modbus/TCP output options offers a state-of-the-art digital interface solution to connect the meter to high level controllers or software solutions. By using M-Bus as an output, the meter can be connected to existing metering networks easily.
Mobile configuration and real-time data
Various settings such as gas type, flow unit and reference standards, can be set ex-factory according to your needs. If settings need to be changed on site, they can be done using the free S4C-FS smart phone application. This enables users to change the settings of the flow sensor wirelessly on site. Flow meter settings are well protected from unwanted access with use of a unique QR access code for each meter.
Application
Compressed air and gas flow and consumption measurement at point of use
Monitoring of operation costs and consumption of machines and compressed air users
