Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
Bulletin P-AVLV-M
The
Series AVLV Low Air Velocity Transmitter
quickly and accurately measures air
velocity or volumetric flow in imperial or metric units. Simultaneous current and voltage
outputs on all models provide universal inputs to monitoring equipment while the
output range, units, and 0-5/10 VDC output can be configured via local DIP switches.
The optional integral display, or the portable remote display tool, provide a convenient
way to locally monitor process values and configure the unit.
Models are available in 1% and 2% accuracy models and low velocity ranges to
suit a variety of needs, and the optional BACnet MS/TP or Modbus
®
RTU/ASCII
communication protocol allows units to be daisy-chained while providing access to all
of the velocity and flow data, as well as additional information such as air temperature.
The lower ranges in these high accuracy units allow for applications in quality intensive
environments, such as the pharmaceutical industry.
