Air Flow and Pressure Dual Sensor
FD-EP series
Air Flow and Pressure Dual Sensor FD-EP series
Complete Air Flow and Pressure Monitoring
- Dual sensing of flow and pressure
- Built-in predictive maintenance modes
- Clog-resistant structure
The FD-EP Series simultaneously monitors air flow and pressure to provide a full breakdown of pneumatic machine performance. The FD-EP Series also features built-in predictive maintenance modes specific to a variety of machines and applications (cylinders, seating confirmation, air blow, etc.) to identify common pneumatic equipment issues. Additionally, with its free flowing internal structure, the risk of clogging and pressure loss is eliminated.

Dual Sensing of Flow and Pressure
Air pressure and air flow in a single unit opens up full understanding of pneumatic equipment on the machine. Knowing pressure and air flow at the same time allows us to predict component failures before unexpected downtime occurs. With 4 built-in application modes programmed into the sensor, increased machine uptime will be more achievable.
Built-In Predictive Maintenance Modes
The FD-EP Series features four built-in predictive maintenance modes to manage pneumatic equipment and diagnose potential component issues. These predictive maintenance modes include cylinder status monitoring, suction conveyance, seating, and air blow. The FD-EP monitors the condition of these processes in order to improve pneumatic equipment productivity and identify potential abnormalities.

Zero Risk of Clogging or Pressure Loss
The FD-EP Series features a free flowing internal structure without protrusions or obstructions in its flow path. This innovation eliminates the risk of clogging and pressure loss commonly experienced with conventional air flow sensors. Because of the sensor's innovative internal structure, the installation process is simplified and downtime is minimized.
Conventional Unit
Pressure loss and clogging caused due to rectifier mesh plate inside.
FD-EP Series
There are no protrusions or obstructions that can cause pressure loss or clogging.

Easy Model Selection
Many conventional air flow sensors support a limited flow rate range, making it difficult to select a model that is compatible with both the correct tube diameter and flow rate. With the FD-EP Series, each model offers an extensive flow range and is compatible with a variety of tubes, making it easier than ever to select the applicable device.
