The SIKA VVX QuickFasten is used for water flow measurement in low and medium measurement ranges.
For example, it is used in heating technology.
Counter-rotating and shifted vortices develop behind a blunt body. The vortices separate at the edges of the blunt body and form a Kármán vortex street in the flow. The distance between the individual vortices is constant. The frequency at which the vortices flow past a sensor depends on the flow velocity and is proportional to the flow velocity. The sensor detects the vortices, which are converted into an electrical frequency signal.
- No mechanical wear. Flow sensor for water with no moving parts.
- Fully encapsulated piezoceramic sensor for detecting vortices. No direct contact with the medium.
- QuickFasten - Quick and secure plug-in connection (Poka Yoke). Tool-free assembly, positive connection.
