What types of liquids can the SITRANS FMS100 measure?

The SITRANS FMS100 is designed for measuring the volume flow of almost all electrically conductive liquids, pastes and slurries with a maximum of 40% solids. It requires a minimum electrical conductivity greater than 5 µS/cm.

How does the SITRANS FMS100 handle aggressive chemicals and high temperatures?

The sensor features highly resistant liners, such as Ceramic or PFA, and electrodes like Platinum or Hastelloy, specifically chosen to withstand corrosive media. Additionally, it is engineered to operate safely in extreme thermal conditions, with a high-temperature version capable of measuring liquids up to 200 °C (392 °F).

What are the benefits of combining the SITRANS FMS100 with a SITRANS FMT020 transmitter?

When combined, the SITRANS FMS100 and SITRANS FMT020 form a complete flowmeter system (SITRANS FM120) that offers enhanced capabilities. This includes SENSORPROM™ technology for fast commissioning, integrated diagnostics for continuous performance monitoring and flexible communication options like HART, Modbus, PROFIBUS PA and EtherNet/IP.
