ONI Rhytemper®
FlowWatch - Digital flowrate and temperature monitoring for HPDC and LPDC applications
Flowrate monitoring
- Durable and corrosion-resistant: All media-carrying components are manufactured entirely from stainless steel – ensuring maximum durability, minimal thermal expansion and highest reliability.
- Designed for high temperatures: All sealing materials are made of PTFE and FKM, optimised for continuous operation at elevated temperatures.
- Optimised flow dynamics: The revised distributor design improves flow characteristics by 32.5% – enabling stable processes and faster response times.
- Compact design: The electronics box is integrated directly into the distributor – minimal space requirements, easy installation and enhanced protection.
- Robust stainless-steel housing: Reliably protects sensors and actuators against mechanical loads and metal splashes.
- Flexible expansion with additional functional units and distributors: Optional functional units (bypass, blow-out unit, leakage monitoring) are integrated directly.
- High operational safety: Each distributor is equipped with a safety valve.
- Maintenance-friendly access to each individual circuit
- Additional safety features: Housing temperature monitoring and insulation of internal components to reduce heat losses.

Your Benefits at a Glance
Durable & Long-Lasting
All media-carrying components are manufactured entirely from stainless steel, ensuring maximum corrosion resistance, minimal thermal expansion, and exceptional long-term reliability – even under harsh continuous operating conditions.
Designed for High-Temperature Operation
All sealing materials are made from PTFE and FKM, specifically selected and optimized for high continuous operating temperatures, guaranteeing long-term tightness and operational safety.
Optimized Flow Dynamics
The redesigned manifold geometry improves flow characteristics by 32.5%, resulting in more uniform flow distribution, faster system response, and highly stable thermal control of each individual circuit.
Compact Integrated Design
The electronics unit is fully integrated into the manifold, minimizing installation space requirements, simplifying system integration, and providing superior protection for electronic components.
Robust Stainless Steel Housing
A rugged stainless steel enclosure reliably protects sensors and actuators against mechanical stress, radiant heat, and molten metal splash typical of die casting environments.
Modular and Expandable
The system features a modular design and can be easily expanded with additional manifolds or optional functional units such as bypass modules, blow-out units, or leakage monitoring – fully integrated and perfectly matched to the system architecture.
Maximum Operational Safety
Each manifold is equipped with an integrated safety valve as standard. Additional safety features include housing temperature monitoring and thermal insulation of internal components to reduce heat loss and enhance operator safety.
Maintenance-Friendly Design
Direct access to each individual temperature control circuit allows fast and efficient maintenance, minimizing downtime and maximizing system availability.
