Standard and Specialist Flow Sensors & Switches

We supply four types of flow sensor from Gems for the continual measurement of gases and liquids. 
Piston types for low flow rates and shuttle models for high flow rates with fixed set points, paddle models for large line sizes and electronic switches 
  • High-quality, corrosion-resistant materials
  • Repeatable performance at low flows
Gems Sensors & Controls has a strong reputation for collaborating with in-house engineering teams, bringing a detailed understanding of the design and operational factors involved with each application.

Often, the choice of sensor is dictated by the media to be measured, such as its specific gravity, viscosity or corrosiveness. Sometimes, design constraints relate to the best way to integrate the sensor, including its position, mounting and size within a restricted space.
Low Flow Rate Turbine Sensors
Ultra-compact TurboFlow® from Gems are low flow rate sensors that provide continual measurement from 0.1 to 8 GPM (0.5 to 30 lpm). Their Hall-effect sensor delivers accuracy to ±3 % of reading and 0.5 % repeatability. Lightweight, these sensors can be mounted in any position.
