Description
The FS1012 MEMS mass flow sensor module measures the flow rate using the thermo-transfer (calorimetric) principle. The FS1012 is capable of measuring a gas or liquid medium.
The FS1012 offers key advantages over resistor-based flow solutions. The sensor utilizes thermopile sensing, which provides an excellent signal-to-noise ratio. The sensor comprises a “solid” thermal isolation technology and silicon-carbide coating to protect it from abrasive wear and provides robustness and long-term reliability. In comparison, other sensors typically contain a fragile membrane above an etched cavity for the thermal isolation base.
The FS1012 features the sensor fully assembled and wire-bonded out to a 6-pin header. Wetted materials consist of a glass fiber reinforced PA66 resin, epoxy, and silicon carbide.
Typical Applications
Process controls and monitoring Oil and gas leak detection HVAC and air control systems CPAP and respiratory devices Liquid dispensing system
