S430 Pitot Tube Flow/Consumption Sensor

The S430 is a sensor that uses the pitot tube principle of flow measurement. This sensor is designed to measure wet and dirty gases, as found in locations like the compressor discharge.

Reliable: ideal for compressor performance tests
Simple: effective, inexpensive, and fast measurements
Accurate: detailed metrics designed unpredictable outputs

Description

The S430 utilizes the pitot tube principle to measure wet and dirty gases that are found in places like the compressor discharge. This sensor boasts long-term reliability, wide turndown ratio, and highly-consistent temperature stability. It can be used in both compressed air and non-corrosive gases, and it can even be installed through a ball valve while the system is still pressurized. Various output signals allow the sensor to be connected to SUTO displays and/or third-party displays and PLCs.

Benefits

Faster Testing

Measure compressor outputs with ease

Easy to Use

Don’t worry about specialized equipment for smaller jobs

Better System Health

Safer for your workers and much easier to manage
