Grundfos DIRECT SENSORS
Authorized Distributor of
DPI – 0-0.6, 0-2.5,
0-4.0, 0-6.0, 0-10
The Grundfos differential pressure sensor is a true
wet/wet solution, available in the differential
pressure ranges of 0.6 – 10 bar.
The Grundfos sensors have been developed for
the intended use of controlling pumps by means of
the differential pressure between pump suction
and discharge. However, the sensor is also ideal
for surveillance, preventive maintenance and
measuring of pressure drops across an orifice
plate in harsh environments with corrosive gases
and liquid media.
The Grundfos DPI range is ideal for a wide range
of applications and especially within filter plants,
cooling and chiller circuits, pipeline systems, water
and waste water systems.
Applications
> Pumps
> Filters
> Cooling & Chiller Systems
> Pipeline Systems
> Water and Wastewater Management Systems
Benefits
> Surveillance
> Protective Maintenance
> Process Control

The Grundfos Direct Sensors are 2-in-1 silicon based sensors for measurement of flow or pressure or
differential pressure.
The Relative Pressure Sensor (RPS) and Vortex Flow Sensor (VFS) are with integrated temperature
measurement intended for boilers in central heating units, whereas the Differential Pressure Sensor (DPS)
is intended for heavy duty pump solutions.
Relative Pressure Sensor

> 2 in 1 Pressure and Temperature Sensor.
> Accurate, linearised and temperature-compensated pressure reading.
> Fast temperature response thru direct media contact.
> Robust and cost-effective construction.
Technical Overview
Grundfos Direct Sensors type RPS, is a series of combined pressure and temperature sensors (two-in-one)
designed for high-volume production. The RPS sensors are fully compatible with wet, aggressive media and
are available for pressure ranges of 0-0.6, up to 0-16 bar (relative pressure).
The RPS sensor utilizes MEMS-sensing technology in combination with a novel packaging concept using
corrosion-resistant coating on the MEMS sensor element. This makes the RPS sensor very robust and ideal
for high-volume OEM applications.
Applications
> Domestic hot-water system efficiency
> Water level in central heating system
> Dry-running protection in solar systems and gas boilers
> Monitoring of pressure and temperature
Features
> Pressure ranges: 0-0.6; 0-1; 0-1.6; 0-2.5; 0-4; 0-6; 0-10 and 0-16 bar.
> Voltage output (ratio metric, ideal for use with microcontroller)
> Compact and robust mechanical design
> Approved for potable water: WRAS, NSF, KTW, W270, ACS.
Benefits
> Pressure and temperature sensor in one package (two-in-one sensor)
> Compatible with wet, aggressive media
> Accurate, linearised and temperature-compensated pressure sensor
> Fast temperature response (direct media contact)
Vortex Flow Sensor

> 2 in 1 Flow and Temperature Sensor.
> Fast temperature response thru direct media contact.
> 1.5% FS accuracy.
> Compact, robust and cost-effective solutions
Technical Overview
Grundfos Direct Sensors, type VFS, is a series of combined flow- and temperature sensors (two-in-one)
based on the principle of vortex shedding behind a bluff body. The VFS sensors are designed for
high-volume production and are fully compatible with wet, aggressive media. The VFS sensor utilizes MEMS
sensing technology in combination with a novel packaging concept using corrosion-resistant coating on the
MEMS sensor element. This makes the VFS sensor very robust and ideal for high-volume OEM applications.
VFS sensors are available for flow ranges of 1-12, 1-20, 2-40, 5-100, 10-200 and 20-400 l/min.
Applications
> thermal management in solar heating systems
> industrial process flow control
> flow rate detection for pump controls
> monitoring of pumps, valves and filters
> cooling and temperature control
> domestic hot-water systems
> heat metering (solar - heat pumps)
Features
> flow ranges: 1-12, 1-20, 2-40, 5-100, 10-200 and 20-400 l/min.
> based on vortex shedding
> voltage output (ratio metric, ideal for use with microprocessor and PLC)
> compact and robust design
> approved for potable water: WRAS, KTW, W270, ACS.
Benefits
> no moving parts
> flow and temperature sensor in one package (two-in-one sensor)
> fast temperature response (direct media contact)
> compatible with wet, aggressive media
> cost-effective and robust construction.
Differential Pressure Sensor
> Rugged and robust industrial graded differential pressure transmitter.
> Accurate, linearised and temperature-compensated DP transmitter.
> Standard power supply.
> Standard analogue output works with any controls/PLC.
