Pitot Tube Pressure Meters

Pitot tube pressure meters are integral in measuring the velocity of gas and air flow. Different types of Pitot tube pressure meters with distinct characteristics can be found in our catalogue. Pitot tube air flow meters are based on the classic Prandtl tube, which includes a Pitot tube to measure total pressure and a sensor to measure static pressure. Closely related to manometers, anemometers emerged for the measurement of air flow. The advantage of Pitot tube air flow meters has over other methods of measurement is it consists of a relatively small opening made above the tube barrier at the most important distance suficient for taking quick readings of air flow. They can also be used in high temperatures and in high wind speeds (up to 120 m/s depending on the model).

A Pitot tube operates according to the basic dynamics of the flow of air or gas and is a classic Pressure Meters: Principle of the Pitot Tube.

example for the practical application of Bernoulli equations. A Pitot tube is an open tube at one end that is placed against a current with the axis of the tube parallel in respect to the direction of the current causing the current to hit the front of the tube opening. The rear section is attached to the air flow meter. These devices can be recalibrated to guarantee the highest possible accuracy and can come with an optional ISO calibration certificate. Recalibrations should be done annually or as stated in your internal ISO manual.

The data obtained by Pitot tube pressure meters can be transferred to a computer by way of an RS-232 cable. These devices come calibrated from the factory, but a DIN ISO calibration can be ordered seperately, and includes a laboratory calibration and a certificate showing the recalibration values.
