- 04…20 mA and pulse or a Modbus RTU (RS 485) interface as standard
- Optional interfaces such as Modbus TCP (Ethernet), PoE, M-Bus available
- Pressure range up to 16 bar
- Temperature range up to 60°C
- Integrated display to show the measured values
- Available from 1/4″ to 2”
- Settings adjustable via the keys of the display
- Main counter can be reset via the display
- For speeds up to 224 Nm/s
- Highly accurate with an accuracy of ± 1.5% or ± 1% of the measured value – as well as ± 0.3% of the final value
Flow sensor with integrated flow straightener / no inlet selections necessary
The newly developed VA 525 combines modern digital interfaces for connection to an energy monitoring system with a small, compact design. Due to its reasonable price and modern digital interfaces this compact in-line flow sensor is used when many machines (compressed air consumers) are to be integrated as easily as possible into an energy monitoring network.
The high-contrast, integrated display also displays the current values rotated by 180° if desired (very useful for overhead installation). Depending on the configuration, two of the following values can be displayed:
- Measurement of mass flow rate, output of standard volume flow rate without additional measurement of pressure and temperature
- Compact device for installation in limited space, no inlet and outlet sections necessary thanks to integrated flow straightener
- Available with built-in pressure sensor
- Highly accurate at small as well as large flows
- No moving parts, therefore low maintenance
- Applicable for compressed air and nitrogen
