Camozzi Rolls Out Smart Flow Sensor Series for Improved Air Treatment

Camozzi has built its new FSX series of smart flow sensors to give manufacturers a clearer view of what’s happening inside their compressed air systems. Each sensor combines flow, pressure, and temperature measurement in a single compact unit, with optional humidity sensing for more detailed air quality checks, including dew point.

FSX Series Smart Flow Sensors

The FSX series smart flow sensors come in two housing sizes and three flow ranges: 20 to 2,000 L/min, 50 to 5,000 L/min, and 100 to 10,000 L/min. With different flow ranges, the sensors can be used on both small branch circuits and high-demand main lines. In addition to real-time readings, the FSX calculates power (kW), energy use (kWh), and total air consumption (m³), giving maintenance straight to plant monitoring or energy management systems for continuous tracking.

The FSX sensors connect over Ethernet, so data can be designed to work with Camozzi's MX2 and MX3 air treatment platforms, allowing for a more integrated approach to compressed air control and performance monitoring.

The UVIX Software Platform

The FSX ties into Camozzi’s UVIX software, which handles setup and ongoing monitoring. From a single interface, users can adjust sensor parameters, configure network settings, and define operating ranges without needing separate tools or complex configuration steps.

The UVIX software also provides live data views for flow, pressure, temperature, humidity, power, energy, and dew point. Instead of exporting data into another program, engineers can watch values update in real time and review historical trends directly in the interface. Graphs make it easier to see when consumption drifts, pressure fluctuates, or performance moves outside expected limits.

Smart Flow Sensing

Camozzi has designed its smart flow FSX sensors for systems that need to track compressed air use and energy consumption to improve efficiency, such as in food and beverage processing, packaging and assembly, or robotics lines. With different flow ranges and two enclosure sizes, the platform fits a variety of installation needs. 

The series' built-in sensing design combines all monitoring functions into a single sensor, eliminating the need for separate devices. By bringing hardware and software together into a single platform, the new sensor series provides industrial users with a complete solution for managing compressed air and energy.
