Series AVUL Air Velocity Transmitter with Modbus
Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
The Series AVUL 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 3% and 5% accuracy models 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.
