Application

N/A Managing water usage in irrigation requires reliable flow sensoring. The wider the flow range and more accurate the sensor, the easier it is to detect leaks and respond quickly. As a critical part of water management, the RS-900w flow sensor reads consistently and does not degrade over time due to wear and tear.
