ULTRAPROBE AMP Airflow Measuring Probes
Applications
ULTRATECH ULTRAPROBE Airflow Measuring Probes provide accurate, repeatable measurement of air movement through fan inlets (FIAMP), exhaust stacks, ducts and piping. Lightweight, rugged construction coupled with ease of installation and economical pricing make these devices particularly applicable to the HVAC trade. Durable, quality construction ensures long term, trouble-free operation. ULTRAC Airflow Measuring Probes are compatible with manometers, differential pressure gauges, and differential pressure transmitters used for airflow indication and control.
Designed for complete installation from outside the fan or duct, this insertion-type sensor is more economical than measuring stations which feature a flanged section of duct. The probe is also ideal for fan-inlet airflow measurement (FIAMP). The sensor is effective at measuring gas and air flow, particularly dirt-filled, sooty or solid-bearing flows when installed with ULTRATECH’s purge-type flow or pressure transmitter systems.
Gas velocities often vary significantly across a fan-inlet, stack or duct. Because single-point flow measuring devices read the velocity at one point only, errors in flow measurement are common. The AMP has total and static pressure measuring points which are distributed for equal-area averaging of flows, resulting in improved accuracy and reliability.
Description
ULTRAPROBE Airflow Measuring Probes are designed per standard duct traverse requirements. These probes are designed to match the balancer’s industry standard Pitot tube, including the method of static pressure measurement and distance between the total pressure and static pressure sensing holes.
Suggested Specifications
ULTRAPROBE Airflow Measuring Probes use multiple averaging Pitots to determine total velocity and static pressure measurements. ULTRAPROBE’s unique AMP construction eliminates nonessential hardware that can cause buildup of dirt and foreign matter on the measuring assembly.
ULTRAPROBE Airflow Measuring Probes are available for fan inlets, round, rectangular and oval duct configurations. All configurations feature a sensor assembly that allows for duct expansion and contraction.
