FlowJam A

Material flow monitoring on flexible hose lines for small quantities

FlowJam A is a sensor which has been specially developed for monitoring the flow of solids conveyed by hose lines. The system can be applied to hose lines made of non-conducting materials such as plastic or rubber with external diameters of between 2 and 10 mm.

Maximum pipe diameter up to 10 mm

Powder coating

Technical Specifications
Material to detect	Dust, powders or granulates
Working principle	Microwave
Process pressure	Independent
Process temperature	+60°C
Mounting	Clamp-on
Type of Conveying	In flexible hoses
Flow rates	No limit
Pipe diameter/detection range	2 to 10 mm
ATEX rating	No
Output	Relay, 4…20mA Trend

Detects streams of solids of all types flowing at a minimum speed of 0.1 m/s through the detection area

The detection is independent of the direction of flow through the Doppler effect evaluation system

Flow of material through non-metallic pipelines is displayed by two switching states on the output relay
