Sensirion’s mass flow measurement for smart gas boilers

Sensirion AG, the leading manufacturer of sensor solutions, extends its expertise in the smart energy market and makes gas boilers more comfortable and environmentally sound. The Swiss manufacturer’s completely calibrated and temperaturecompensated sensors and sensor solutions ensure precise and reliable measurement of the air mass to a combustion chamber. This expertise enables not only higher boiler efficiency but also a significant increase in the modulation ratio, which, in turn, enhances the comfort and lifetime of the boiler.

Thanks to their compact size and flexible modification options, Sensirion’s solutions for mass flow measurement can be installed in any boiler. In addition, the proven sensors guarantee a wide dynamic control range, the elimination of zeropoint drift, outstanding repeatability and accuracy and the option of certified intrinsic safety. Sensirion also offers sensor solutions for the measurement of temperature and relative humidity, as well as natural gas with gas quality compensation.

The sensor performance is based on the patented CMOSens® Technology, in which the sensor component and the evaluation circuit are integrated on a single CMOS microchip. In conjunction with a specially developed sensor packaging, the result is a more cost-effective system with significantly higher precision and repeatability, representing a quantum leap in mass flow and differential pressure measurement.

With its products and services, Sensirion strives to meet the highest quality and environmental standards. The company places great importance on the production and ongoing development of energy-efficient applications for its end customers. Sensirion’s sensor solutions enable a massive expansion of the adjustment range area with improved energy efficiency. This makes the Swiss company not only a global leader in technology, but in environmental terms too. Sensirion’s mass flow measurement for smart gas boilers enables energy and cost efficiency, comfort and safety.
