4 Application 4 Application The S418-V is a thermal mass flow sensor that is designed to measure the actual flow at the low pressure side of vacuum pumps within the permissible operating parameters (in chapter 6 Technical data). The S418-V can measure the following values: Absolute volumetric flow (default unit: al/min) •...
