VD 550 – Robust flow sensor for wet compressed air and gases

  • Unique sensitivity in the lower measuring range: 
    measures from as low as 2 m/s, thereby covering the entire operating range 
    of speed-controlled compressors
  • Particularly suitable for extremely high flow rates
  • Volume flow, total consumption, temperature and pressure
  • Measurement at high temperatures, max. temperature 180 °C
  • Suitable for use in pipes with nominal diameters from 20 to 600 mm
  • Installation via a 1/2″ ball valve under pressure
  • Robust, impact-resistant die-cast aluminium housing for outdoor use 
    IP 67
