Upgrade Your System with Advanced Flow Sensor Technology

In modern industrial systems, flow sensors play a crucial role in ensuring the accurate measurement and control of liquids and gases. Whether it’s water treatment, chemical processing, or oil and gas applications, a reliable flow sensor enhances performance, safety, and efficiency. At Petron Thermoplast, we offer advanced flow sensor technology designed to deliver precise readings, long-term durability, and seamless integration into various process systems.

What is a Flow Sensor?

A flow sensor, also known as a flow meter or flow transmitter, is an instrument used to measure the rate or quantity of fluid movement through a system. These sensors help industries monitor consumption, maintain process balance, and prevent system failures caused by irregular flow.

Flow sensors work on different principles—mechanical, ultrasonic, electromagnetic, or thermal—depending on the type of fluid and application requirements. They are commonly used in systems handling water, oil, gas, air, and chemical fluids.

Working Principle of Flow Sensors

Flow sensors detect the velocity of the fluid and convert it into an electrical signal proportional to the flow rate. The working mechanism varies based on the sensor type:

• Electromagnetic Flow Sensors: Measure the voltage generated by a conductive fluid moving through a magnetic field.
• Ultrasonic Flow Sensors: Use sound waves to calculate flow velocity based on the time difference between transmitted and received signals.
• Thermal Flow Sensors: Measure changes in heat dissipation caused by fluid movement.
• Turbine Flow Sensors: Use a rotating turbine whose speed correlates with the flow rate.
