VPFlowMate In-line
The VPFlowMate® combines state of the art silicon sensor technology with ease of use. Because of the high turndown ratio and low pressure drop, the VPFlowMate® is suitable for many applications. With a RS232 and 4..20 mA output, the VPFlowMate can be connected directly to a PC and most industrial equipment. The VPFlowMate in-line has removable in- and outlet piping for convenient installation and service.
Compressed air metering, energy monitoring, testing of pneumatic systems, quality inspection and testing, purge metering.

** NOTE: The temperature error is typically less than 0.2% of reading per degree Celsius. Optional
temperature calibration can be specified.
*** NOTE: The pressure error is typically 0.3% of full scale per bar deviation of the calibration pressure. The pressure error of the VPFlowMate® is specified for a range of +/- 3 bar around the
calibration pressure. Ask for custom calibration when using the VPFlowMate® at atmospheric or low line pressure.
