VAP-XL PITOT: FOR LARGE DUCTS

The VAP-XL Pitot or VAP-AEX is designed as an extremely accurate, low-cost solution for air flow measurement in both clean and particulate-laden air for industrial process applications where extremely large ducts are present. VAP-AEX pitots are constructed out of Anodized Aluminum, much like the AES pitot, however, the VAP-AEX pitot's cross sectional dimensions are more than twice that of the standard AES pitot in both width and height. The VAP-AEX is an insertion style pitot that is mounted via welded ports and delivers an extremely accurate differential pressure output that allows for precise flow measurement and control of your system.

When mounted in SA (Superior Accuracy) mode, all of the models mentioned above will accurately measure the flow of relatively clean air through nearly any duct. While positioning the High Port so that it faces into the air stream (shown below) makes the measurement more accurate, it also limits the use of SA mode to particulate-free air. Mounted in SA mode, VAP pitots provide an accurate differential pressure output that allows for precise air flow measurement and control of your process to within +/-0.50% accuracy when calibrated.
