flowplus-SPT M6

The new flowplus-SPT M6 sensor

With the flowplus-SPT M6, ViscoTec is now launching the world’s smallest flush pressure sensor with a chemical – largely inert – pressure membrane made of FFKM. The miniature sensor is also currently the only sensor that achieves both pressure and temperature measurement with an M6 thread as process connection and a sensor body that is only 15.3 mm short.

Here, the flowplus-SPT M6 sensor measures pressures of the material to be dispensed up to 40 bar at a temperature range from 5 to 50°C. The miniature sensor fits perfectly into the material outlet of ViscoTec dispensing systems, but can also be installed in other applications, where its small design reduces possible material losses due to dead space-optimized components. Thanks to its intuitive mechanics and short cable length, integration into ViscoTec dispensers is quick and easy, so that the flowplus-SPT M6 is immediately ready for process data acquisition.

flowplus16

Pressure sensor flowplus16
Existing dosing systems can be easily extended and ensured – with the pressure sensor flowplus16. The piezoresistive relative sensor recognizes even smallest pressure changes in the volume flow rate and changes it into electrical signals. Evaluation units can analyse these signals.

The very small design of the sensor simplifies an implementation – even with small installation space. The flowplus16 can be integrated into existing processes via a luer lock connection. It is easy to clean and therefore changing materials or changings in the system configuration can be done quick and easy.

The coating of the flow channel – which is out of a perfluorelastomere – guarantees very high chemical resistance. This means, the sensor is suitable for nearly all materials in the fields of medical technology, bio technology or also electronics. And next to the ViscoTec dispensers also perfectly suitable for microdispensing technology from preeflow.

flowplus-MONITOR QC

flowplus-MONITOR QC
The flowplus-MONITOR QC evaluation unit is an accessory device to improve quality assurance in the dispensing process. It can be connected to stand-alone dispensers and monitor and evaluate the pressures of 1K or 2K systems. It can also measure the inlet pressure and the dispensing pressure separately.

The data can be stored on a USB stick and exported or transferred to other systems via a 15-pin sub-D interface. The evaluation unit has a 5” touch display which shows the pressure signals and limit curves in color. The limit curves and ranges can be set via a teach-in to evaluate the pressure signals.

The flowplus-MONITOR QC works together with the sensors flowplus16 or flowplus-SPT M6. The evaluation unit is easy to install and operate and works in a temperature range between +10°C and +40°C.
