General information about the flow sensors
These sensors were designed for measuring dynamic dispensing processes so that drops from 20 microliters can be detected. Due to the fast, continuous sampling rate, even short events such as a pulse or an air bubble are recorded during measurement. The flow sensors measure the flow constantly at 100 Hz, regardless of the configuration of the readout interval, which can be set to a value between 0.01 and 100 seconds.
