Liquid flow sensor suits tight spaces
Now being shipped by distributor Mouser Electronics is the LPG10-1000 digital planar liquid flow sensor from Sensirion.
This is a high-performance sensor that measures liquid flow in a planar microfluidic glass substrate with down-mount fluidic ports for highly compact integration into any fluidic manifold system.
Measuring 10mm x 10mm x 2.35mm, the LPG10-1000 is ideal for high-volume applications with strict space limitations.
Microfluidics chips and digital microsensor chips are combined to measure liquid flow inside a planar glass substrate.
The digital microsensor chip provides full signal processing functionality for a fully calibrated, temperature compensated, linearised digital output.
Applications include biomedical devices, point-of-care diagnostics, and surgical instruments.
