    SP2-Fx Model This system is designed primarily for use when the purge gas is supplied by a fan (not supplied for Expo). Via a customised calibrated orifice plate, the SP2-Fx measures the differential pressure from the high and low pressure points across the orifice plate to detect the suitable purge flow of the enclosure.
