  • Page 4: Device Description

    Device description ® induQ of the VMI series from SIKA is a flow sensor without moving parts. The meas- urement is performed using magnetic induction. The VMI is used for measuring or metering water and electrically conductive fluids. The com- pact design and independence from the intake and discharge sections allows the VMI to be used under a variety of conditions.
