Description
The FS2012 is a high performance and fully calibrated mass flow rate module for non-corrosive gas or liquid flow. It features an accuracy error down to 2% of reading (typical).
The FS2012 comprises a MEMS flow sensor mounted on a circuit board with a flow housing and sensor signal conditioning components. It features a 6-pin standard header for both a fully calibrated analog and digital output (I2C).
The low power, high accuracy, and robustness make the FS2012 an excellent fit for applications such as process controls and monitoring, HVAC, air control systems, respiratory devices and liquid dispensing systems.

- Application NotePDF 135 KB R36AN0015EU0100 Rev.1.00 Jun 26, 2023AI-generated Summary: Thermal flow sensors measure fluid flow rates by detecting heat transfer changes caused by fluid movement across a micro-heater and temperature sensors. Accuracy depends on factors such as fluid composition, ambient temperature, pressure, humidity, and flow profile. Variations in fluid thermal properties or environmental conditions can alter sensor readings. Calibration is specific to certain fluids, with conversion factors available for others. Proper sensor placement and flow conditioning improve measurement reliability despite turbulent or laminar flow variations.

FS2012-1100-NG exceeding flow rate limit of 10L/min
Hello, I am using a FS2012-1100-NG flow sensor with the I2C interface to regulate gas flow in my system. I wanted to know what happens when the flow is greater than 10L/min. It seems that in some cases the sensor returns the value 0. Is this ...

Multiple FS2012 flow sensors on the same I2C bus?
Hi! We are in the development phase of a project were we would like to use multiple (4pcs) of the FS2012 flow sensors. We would prefer to have them all on the same I2C bus but is that even possible? As far as we can see there is no way ...
