CS Instruments VD 500 Flow Meter For FAD Measurement

Description

Managing the efficiency of compressed air systems starts at the source. The CS Instruments VD 500 Flow Meter For FAD Measurement is uniquely designed to operate in conditions where other sensors fail. It is specifically built for wet compressed air applications, allowing for installation and measurement immediately downstream of the compressor.

By monitoring the air flow at this critical juncture, operators can accurately track the compressor’s delivery rate. This capability is essential for generating a Free Air Delivery (FAD) analysis, which verifies if the compressor is performing to its original specifications. The device is also engineered to handle the challenging environment of compressor rooms, including measurement at high temperatures, ensuring reliable data regardless of the operating conditions.
