FLOWSIC600
Reliable flowmeter for process applications in a compact and robust design
Overview
Product Description
The FLOWSIC600 is an ultrasonic flowmeter that sets the standard in its market segment. The design shows that it is geared towards the harsh conditions of the industry. Thanks to its compact design with integrated cable routing, the measuring system is durable, fail-safe, low-maintenance, and exhibits long-term stability. The FLOWSIC600 has extensive diagnostic options that allow faults to be detected before the measurement is affected and offers process monitoring based on the speed of sound.
Key Benefits
- Long-term stability, reliable measurement
- Low maintenance due to intelligent self-diagnostics
- Virtually immune to pressure regulator noise
- Ultrasonic transducers can be exchanged under operating pressure
- Wide application range
