What Is The Digital Flowmeter?

EXAIR's Digital Flowmeter, with data logging capability available, is the easy way to monitor compressed air consumption and waste! The digital display shows the exact amount of compressed air being used, making it easy to identify costly leaks or inefficient air products. No cutting, welding, adjustments or calibration are ever required. It is designed for permanent or temporary mounting to a compressed air pipe. If the unit needs to be removed, blocking rings are available. Available for measuring air flow in SCFM on schedule 40 iron pipe from 1/2"-6" diameter. Air flow meters for copper pipe up to 4" are also available.

Why The Digital Flowmeter?

The Digital Flowmeter has an LED display that directly indicates the SCFM or m3/hr volume of airflow through that pipe. Models from 1/2" to 4" iron pipe are in stock. Each Digital Flowmeter is calibrated for the pipe size to which it is mounted.
The Digital Flowmeter is designed for permanent or temporary mounting to the pipe. It requires the user to drill two small holes through the pipe using the included drill bit and locating fixture. The two flow sensing probes of the fl owmeter are inserted in these holes. The unit seals to the pipe once the clamps are tightened. No cutting, welding, adjustments or calibration are ever required. If the unit needs to be removed, blocking rings are available. NEMA Type 4 (IP66) meters available. Consult the factory.

How it Works?

These flowmeters measure flow by maintaining a temperature differential between the two probes inserted into the compressed air pipe. One probe is kept warmer than the other and mass flow rate is determined by the amount of heat required to maintain the temperature differential.The flow rate, in SCFM or m3/hr, is shown on the large four-digit display. A 4-20 mA output and pulse output permit remote display of the flow value and data collection.
