Flow sensors - Import export

We offer you standardised complete systems for the measurement of volume & mass flows. The EP LMF®-LaminarMasterFlow® is a complete system for high-precision flow measurement of gases and air. The LMF® system consists of a flow processor, a Laminar Flow Element (LFE) as measuring section, a cable set and a sensor package. The flow measurement is performed by means of Laminar Flow Elements (LFE), which are available in different sizes and cover a measuring range from 0.01 to 700 m³/h. (optionally up to 4000 m³/h).

with adjustable humidity and temperature to simulate the environmental conditions of a test specimen (e.g. household appliances, heating technology) The basis is a standard or climatic chamber (e.g. test kitchen, environmental simulation) with adjustable air humidity and temperature. On the basis of decades of experience in automotive test engineering, EP-E developed a concept in which the air flows in a circle (loop design). The result is a very excellent homogeneous temperature and humidity distribution. Through precise temperature and humidity control, it is possible to set different combinations of air conditioning and thus precisely adjust the required test conditions. The determination of the air flow (exhaust air volume) is carried out via a measuring section with the use of Laminar Flow Elements (LFEs). In order to determine the volume flow, pressure and temperature sensors are used to determine the air volume flow of the climatic chamber(s).

Large heat and flow meters are often used continuously for decades after an initial calibration at external test benches. A recalibration of these meters within their actual operation conditions was not possible so far. In the best case scenario those flow meters are unmounted and recalibrated on an external test bench. Drawback of this method is an interruption of supply in addition to its already high costs. Furthermore, calibration conditions can differ greatly from actual operation conditions compared to test bench conditions, so even if calibrated, the measurement uncertainty in operation remains fairly unknown. This often leads to more difficult fluid distribution optimizations and leaves billing fairness to a gamble. More precisely measured values of flow sensors may uncover hidden saving potentials within the fluid distribution system and allow more exact performance indicators, improving energy efficiency.
