Honeywell TBF Series

Honeywell’s TBF Series consists of compact, flush-mounted diaphragm force sensors designed for applications where media compatibility is critical. The series features a precision-tested diaphragm, making these sensors particularly well suited for applications in which force is applied through a flexible diaphragm, such as infusion pumps.

The sensor is internally unamplified, providing virtually unlimited resolution and allowing customers to apply their own signal amplification and algorithms to fully utilise the raw sensor output. In addition, the sensor is internally temperature compensated and factory calibrated.

Functions

Honeywell force sensors are typically used in infusion pumps to monitor and control the delivery of fluids, medications, or nutrients to patients. They are used in a non-invasive manner and do not require disinfection or sterilization before reuse. 

  • Monitoring the delivery of fluids, medications, or nutrients to patients
  • Detecting blockages and determining when the bag of fluids or nutrients needs to be changed
