Digital Sidewall Sensor

Triatek’s Digital Sidewall Sensor is a mass flow sensor designed to measure fume hood pressure as air is pulled from outside the hood to inside the hood. Flow direction ensures no hood contaminates enter the sensor. It works in conjunction with the HMS-1655 Fume Hood Controller and is an important aspect of Triatek’s integrated Laboratory Solutions.

Patented CMOSens® technology combines sensor elements, signal processing, and digital calibration on a single microchip for unmatched performance. The sensor’s highly-sensitive silicon chip requires only a minuscule amount of flow to provide amazing accuracy. Fast response times (to within 4.6 ms) keeps velocity maintained within safe levels to minimize hood turbulence while ensuring containment.
The Digital Sidewall Sensor can also be used in conjunction with a POS-100 Sash Position Sensor for controlling or monitoring. It has superior dynamic range and long-term stability when compared to membrane-based sensors.
