  • Page 5: Intended Use

    Mechatronic flow sensor SBx4xx 3 Intended use The unit monitors liquid media (water, glycol solutions, industrial oils, coolants). It detects the volume flow (flow rate/time) and outputs an analogue signal that is proportional to the process value. ATTENTION Frost formation of the medium. w The sensor may be damaged.
  • Page 6: Function

    SBx4xx Mechatronic flow sensor 4 Function The unit detects the flow according to the principle of differential pressure by means of a permanent magnet and a measuring cell. 4.1 Analogue output The analogue signal for water is linear from 4 mA (= no flow) to 20 mA I [mA] (= final value of the measuring range, VMR).
