Gear flow meters for abrasive media, Ex

High-precision measurement for demanding applications
The VSE VHM series of gear flow meters for abrasive media operates on the displacement principle and is suitable for a broad spectrum of liquids, including chemicals, paints, inks, and pharmaceutical products. The series is also available as an Ex-certified version, making it suitable for use in explosive environments.

Advanced technology for precise measurements
VHM flow meters detect flow using a contactless signal pick-up, where each gear tooth generates a pulse as it passes the sensor. This system ensures stable and accurate measurement even with media that have low lubricity or high abrasive effects.

Flexible configuration options
To meet diverse requirements, VHM flow meters are available with single, double, and quadruple resolution as well as signal outputs in both NPN and PNP modes. This offers flexibility in integration with existing systems and the ability to achieve the desired measurement accuracy.

Dead space optimised design
The flow meters are designed with a dead space optimised design, making them particularly suited for applications where flushing and cleaning are required. This is a significant advantage in the paint industry, where residual products can affect colour quality and system performance.
