ZNC-FRC-FT Flow and Temperature Integrated Flow Switch

Overview of ZNC-FRC-FT Flow and Temperature Integrated Flow Switch

The ZNC-FRC-FT Integrated Flow and Temperature Switch is an advanced thermal monitoring device designed to simplify system protection by providing two critical measurements in one probe.

• What is it? This instrument is a "no-moving-parts" electronic switch that monitors the flow rate and temperature of water, oil, or gas. By integrating these two functions, it reduces the number of pipe penetrations needed and simplifies wiring. It acts as a safety watchdog for industrial machinery, preventing damage from both flow interruptions and fluid overheating.

• Principles of Operation: The device utilizes the thermal dispersion principle for flow detection. A heated sensor tip is cooled by the passing medium; the rate of cooling is directly proportional to the flow velocity. Simultaneously, a high-precision PT1000 or similar element within the same probe tip measures the medium's temperature.

• Main Application Field: It is widely utilized in cooling water circuits, high-end lubrication systems, and hydraulic machinery. It is particularly effective for protecting pumps from dry-running while simultaneously ensuring that the fluid temperature remains within safe operational limits.

• Key Characteristics: The standout feature is the 0.96-inch color display, which shows flow and temperature trends in real-time. It offers extremely low pressure loss, a high pressure rating of 100 bar, and a robust IP67-rated stainless steel construction.

Features of ZNC-FRC-FT Flow and Temperature Integrated Flow Switch

1. Dual-Parameter Monitoring: Simultaneously measures and displays flow velocity and medium temperature, providing comprehensive protection with a single device.

2. Maintenance-Free Design: No mechanical paddles or gears to stick or break, fundamentally eliminating wear-related failures and reducing the total cost of ownership.

3. High-Resolution Color Display: Equipped with a 0.96" color LCD window for clear, real-time visualization of process data and easy menu-based configuration.

4. IO-Link Ready: Supports IO-Link for digital integration, allowing for remote parameter setting and advanced diagnostics in Industry 4.0 environments.

5. Wide Measuring Range & Low Pressure Loss: Capable of detecting very low flow (from 0.01 m/s) with minimal impact on the fluid system's pressure.

6. Robust Electrical Protection: Built-in safeguards against reverse polarity, short-circuits, and overloads ensure long-term stability in industrial power environments.

Applications of ZNC-FRC-FT Flow and Temperature Integrated Flow Switch

• Cooling and Circulating Water Systems: Ensuring constant flow and safe temperatures for laser equipment, welding machines, and vacuum furnaces.

• Hydraulic and Pneumatic Machinery: Monitoring oil flow and heat levels to maintain viscosity and protect expensive valves and seals.

• Pump Dry-Run and Overheat Protection: A critical interlock for industrial pumps to prevent catastrophic damage from loss of fluid or excessive heat.

• Industrial Coolant Monitoring: Supervising cutting fluids in CNC machining centers to ensure tools are properly cooled and lubricated.

• Anti-Freeze Protection: Detecting low-flow conditions in outdoor piping systems to prevent freezing and pipe bursts.
