FTMg: flow sensor with energy measurement
The thermal flow meter FTMg measures gas flow, temperature, process pressure and energy consumption: a cost-saving multitalent.
With high measurement dynamics and low pressure drop, it detects non-corrosive gases extremely energy-efficiently.
The high-contrast colour display ensures easy operation of the FTMg and supports the display of various measured values in a graph.
Internal data logging over a seven-day period and integrated statistical evaluation help detect even the smallest leaks in a pneumatic system.
All measurement data can be transmitted via IO-Link or with switching and analogue signals.
In summary, it measures compressed air and non-corrosive gases such as argon, helium, carbon dioxide and nitrogen, and it guarantees high measurement dynamics for cylinder and leak monitoring.
You can also 'attach' the Monitoring Box to the FTMg: a 'cloud' solution for continuous monitoring of the status of devices and installations,
as well as the application itself.
The combination of historical and real-time data provides transparent insight into exceedances of limit values and status changes.
The analysed data are used to produce diagnoses, statistics and forecasts that enable customised predictive maintenance.

Festo - SFAMRead moreBecause the SFAM is a pressure and flow sensor in one, machines need only one component to measure multiple values. By measuring compressed air pressure, flow and consumption, among other things, the SFAM provides full insight into the compressed air system. This insight is the first step in a more economical, safe and sustainable system.

Avebe - A Good Night’s Sleep Thanks to FactoryScanRead moreCompanies often have no clear idea of the installed base of industrial automation in their factories and warehouses. With FactoryScan, itsme can provide an overview of the current status of automation components such as PLCs. Potato processor Royal Avebe uses the results to update their component stock and assess future availability. The scan is intended to reduce the number of hardware-related disruptions Process Control Engineer Johan Wierenga has to deal with. It also helps him sleep better, knowing the stock is up to date.
