CS Instruments PI 500 Portable Flow Measurement Instrument

Description

The CS Instruments PI 500 for e.g. Portable Flow Measurement stands out due to its inimitable graphic indication of colored measurement curves. This feature allows technicians to visualize trends and anomalies in real-time, right at the measurement site, without needing to offload data to a computer first. The device is engineered for flexibility, featuring a freely configurable sensor input that adapts to various measurement needs.

Data handling is streamlined for efficiency. Measured values can be easily transferred to a computer by means of a USB stick, eliminating the need for complex cabling in the field. Once transferred, the data can be comfortably evaluated using the CS Soft Basic software, where operators can quickly issue detailed service reports. This end-to-end workflow makes the PI 500 an essential tool for maintenance and energy auditing.
