Honeywell AWM1000 Series

The AWM1000 Series mass flow sensor offers all the outstanding performance advantages of the standard AWM2000 series in a more cost-effective sensor platform. This series of sensors provides accurate, repeatable flow measurement.

Possible applications

  • Damper control for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems
  • Gas analyzers
  • Process control
  • Medical devices and ventilators
  • Oxygen concentrators
  • Leak detectors
  • Gas chromatography

Functionality

In simple terms, an air flow sensor is a device with two pressure ports through which gas flows from one port to the other (see Figure 1). Inside the sensor is a sensitive measuring element with a heated surface.

When air or gas flows across the sensing element, heat is transferred in the upstream direction, as illustrated in Figure 2. This creates a temperature difference that is proportional to the mass flow of the medium. The temperature difference is measured by an electronic circuit and converted into a corresponding output signal.

  • Precise and fast response to the flow of air or other gases
  • Bidirectional measurement function
  • Cost-effective microbridge technology
  • Improved response time
  • Low power consumption enables use in portable devices and battery-powered applications
