Flusso Launches Complete Flow Sensing Solution
October 23, 2020 | FlussoEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Flusso has launched the world’s smallest flow sensor as part of a low-cost and complete digital flow sensing solution for use in high-volume consumer and industrial markets.
The new FLS110 flow sensor, with a footprint of just 3.5 x 3.5 mm, is small enough to fit into any product and can be positioned where measurements matter. It is being launched with a complete package of design and application engineering support to make it easy for product manufacturers to incorporate flow measurement into virtually any product or system for the first time.
Target applications include: active filter monitoring in vacuum cleaners, air-conditioning units and other consumer appliances; pipe blockage detection in industrial and domestic gas-detection products and systems; air pump monitoring and control in both consumer and industrial applications; and portable healthcare equipment such as smart inhalers and fitness monitoring masks.
Flow measurement is often seen as being a difficult and time-consuming function to implement, requiring specialist engineering expertise and knowhow. Most competitive flow sensors follow the ‘one-size-fits-all’ paradigm, offer limited customisation, and have their own integrated processing circuitry to implement functions and algorithms that are virtually inaccessible to their users.
Flusso has taken a completely different approach and has developed its easy-to-use, fully customisable FLS110 flow sensing solution to seamlessly integrate hardware and software with mechanical and fluidic components.
The new sensor measures flow rate across a wide measurement range of 0.001 to over 500 standard litres per minute (slm, in a bypass configuration). It delivers a fully temperature-compensated and reliable flow signal, and has been optimised for fast scale-up and cost-effective mass production.
In addition, Flusso is supplying all its customers with a full package of electronic, mechanical and fluidic engineering knowhow and support to incorporate flow measurement into their products. Allowing customers to decide for themselves the ideal balance of performance versus cost.
The package includes flow sensing firmware; software to configure and customise different FLS110 operating modes depending on the application requirements; design guides; and application engineering support to help shorten new product development timescales.
FLS110 is integrated into a 6-pin DFN package, is reflow solderable and shipped in tape and reel for automated product assembly.
