Primary differential pressure devices, like SITRANS F O orifice, are standardized mechanical flow sensor according DIN EN ISO 5167 which are used for volume and mass flow measurement. The SITRANS F O orifice are suitable for non-corrosive and corrosive gases, vapors and liquids; permissible operating temperature -60 to +570 °C. The created differential pressue will be converted with the help of a differential pressure transmitter SITRANS P delta P into a proportional flow signal.
For calculation of the SITRANS F O orifice to DIN EN ISO 5167 is an completed filled out questionnaire necessary.
