Flow Computer – VCA-CAN

The smart VCA-CAN flow computer is designed for harsh environment. It is best choice for reliable operation at the demanding conditions of vehicle road testing. Due to the extremly compact housing, it simply fits into the engine compartment where space is limited.

The automatic flow sensor identification ensures the flow computer is immediately ready to measure after connected to any DDM flow meter (Hot-plug-capable). Up to 10 custom fluid curves (viscosity vs. temperature) can be stored for viscosity correction. The actual fluid to be measured can be selected wireless by means of an RFID-Tag. Both flow meter frequency and media temperature are precisely measured. The input signals are processed, viscosity corrected and linearised in real time. The flow computer VCA-CAN calculates the flow rate, medium temperature, viscosity, turbine K-factor and impeller frequency. All calculated parameters can be transmitted on the CAN 2.0B high speed bus.
