Flow sensor for liquid

media type 236

Flow range
1.8 ... 240 l/min
Nominal diameters
DN 10 / 32
Temperature measurement
-40 ... +125 C

The type 236 is based on the type 210 but incorporates a

brass housing. The Vortex Sensor type 236 has a rugged
construction of brass connection. This flow sensor is available
with a larger variety concerning power supply and outputs.
You can choose between various versions as integrated
temperature measurement. With no moving parts the flow
sensor is not sensitive to debris, has marginal pressure loss and
high accuracy.
