Level up your
performance
Performance is more than just getting a measurement of your material: it's about having the confidence that the measurements are accurate--every time. It's about how a device operates, how to integrate data into a comprehensive control system--and most importantly, about having a worry-free system so you can focus on other aspects of your operations. Because it #makessense.

The optional SITRANS AW050 and SITRANS mobile IQ app uses Bluetooth to provide an intuitive and easy-to-use interface for diagnostics and setup.
