Baumer – FlexFlow PF20H

Flow Sensor_IO-Link_Hygirnic

Brand : Baumer

The Baumer PF20H (FlexFlow PF20H) is a hygienic flow and temperature measurement sensor designed for food, beverage, pharmaceutical and other sanitary process environments. It operates on a calorimetric measurement principle to detect flow velocity and media temperature in liquid lines, combining both values in one compact sensor to reduce installation points and improve process visibility. Its FDA‑compliant hygienic design with flush‑fitting process connections, high temperature tolerance and robust stainless steel construction make it suitable for CIP/SIP cleaning cycles and continuous use in demanding liquid applications.

This sensor delivers reliable linear flow and temperature outputs and supports digital integration via IO‑Link, allowing easy configuration, diagnostics and automation system interfacing. With broad process connection options and installation orientation flexibility, the PF20H simplifies integration into diverse hygienic systems while ensuring stable performance across its measurement range.
