Further product information

The compact sensor detects the viscosity and mass density of the surrounding medium on the basis of a low-frequency resonance sensor element. The high measuring accuracy and sensitivity is achieved by a robust and reliable quartz crystal tuning fork resonator. The sensor is long-term stable and is therefore particularly suitable for predictive maintenance and servicing strategies, such as oil condition monitoring. Even with changing process conditions (pressure, temperature, flow), excellent data quality is achieved due to the high measuring rate.
The sensor can be easily and cost-effectively integrated into existing machines and systems via digital and configurable analogue interfaces.
