Small, temperature compensating airflow transducer

-- Control Engineering, 10/1/2001

Shirley, Mass. - AVT Series airflow transducer simultaneously measures air velocity and air temperature in real time. According to its developer, the device was developed to meet the needs of OEMs for high accuracy monitoring and performance control with unparalleled accuracy over a wide temperature range. The AVT features an exclusive, field proven temperature compensation algorithm that allows for accurate readings from 10-60 C, greatly expanding the applications where reliable measurements can be taken when compared to room temperature calibrated instruments. The device's thermistor technology allows the AVT to retain its calibration over time and is not sensitive to supply voltage-accepts anywhere between 12-24 V dc. Standard velocity ranges include 0-100 fpm up to 0-2,000 fpm. Output choices include 0-5 V, 0-10 V, or 4-20 mA.
