Flow Transmitter – HK Instruments DPT-Flow Series

Features

  • Two field selectable functions:
    • Measure and monitor in-duct volume flow, velocity or differential pressure
    • Measure and monitor air flow across centrifugal fans
  • Multiple field selectable measurement units:
    • Volume flow: m3/s, m3/h, cfm, l/s
    • Velocity: m/s, ft/min
    • Pressure: Pa, inWC, mmWC, kPa, mbar, psi
  • Unique proportional output options:
    • Volume flow or velocity: voltage (0–10 V) or current (4–20 mA)
    • Pressure: voltage (0–10 V) or current (4–20 mA)
Enquiry

DPT-Flow is a flow transmitter that provides a new and easy way to measure the flow rate on centrifugal fans.

One device is suitable for a range of different fan types. It also provides an easy way to measure flow rate in a duct system. The device is supplied with an optional FloXactTM averaging measurement probe.

Usage

The DPT-Flow is designed for air handling units to measure the air flow on centrifugal fans. The DPT-Flow can be used as an on-site display for flow or as a transmitter to regulate the air flow on a selected fan or blower.

The DPT-Flow can also be used in the duct system or in air handling units as an on-site display for flow or as a transmitter to regulate the air flow in a duct. The device can be used with several different measurement probes such as FloXactTM or pitot tube, and air dampers. The requirement is that the K-value of the measurement probe or damper is known.

Applications

DPT-Flow series devices are commonly used in HVAC/R systems for:

  • Air flow monitoring across centrifugal fans and blowers
  • In-duct air flow monitoring
  • VAV applications
