KYOTO, Japan – OMRON Corporation (TOKYO: 6645,US: OMRNY) will release a new MEMS flow sensor designed to optimize efficiency in fuel cell systems from April 2008. The D6F MEMS mass flow sensor is the latest addition to Omron's D6F series of flow sensors. It will be on display at the 4th International Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Expo, which runs from February 27 – 29 at Tokyo Big Site.
Key Product Features
1. High Accuracy
Measuring 1.55mm (H) x 1.55mm (W) x 0.4mm (D), Omron’s new sensor incorporates the world’s smallest class of MEMS element to enable precise measurement of even very low flow rates. |
2. Quick-Connect Type
| The new sensor features a quick-connect structure instead of the traditional screw-type connection. This simplifies the assembly process and allows standardization of piping for reduced costs and improved system reliability. |
3. Outstanding Output Linearity
| Omron’s unique flow path technology exhibits excellent linearity of output, which eliminates the need for linearity compensation and simplifies calibration. This also improves flow measurement accuracy to ensure optimal operation. |
4. Resin Construction
| By using resin instead of metal, Omron has reduced mass production unit costs. In addition, this resin-based sensor offers a lighter alternative than metal counterparts. |
