Honeywell HAF Series Zephyr Digital Airflow Sensors

Honeywell HAF Series Zephyr Digital Airflow Sensors feature a digital interface for reading airflow over specified full-scale flow and compensated temperature ranges, as well as thermally isolated heaters and temperature sensing elements that aid in providing a quick response to air or gas flow. The HAF airflow sensors include a broad airflow range, efficient sensitivity at very low flows, and a high 12-bit resolution that improves the ability to detect minute airflow changes. These HAF digital airflow sensors offer an operating temperature range from -20°C to +70°C and are available in supply voltage ranging from 3Vdc to 10Vdc. Ideally, HAF airflow sensors are used in anesthesia delivery machines, ventilators, fuel cells, process control gas monitoring, and vacuum pump monitoring.
