Air flow / Air velocity-FDM06-P Pitot Tube Thermal Mass Flowmeter 2. Keep away from heat or cold sources Because thermal mass wind speed sensors are extremely sensitive to temperature, they should be installed away from equipment that produces significant thermal effects (such as electric heaters, air conditioning vents, etc.).

Air flow / Air velocity-FDM06-P Pitot Tube Thermal Mass Flowmeter 4. Gas Condition Effects and Scaler Factor Thermal mass sensors calculate flow rate based on the thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity of the gas. Therefore, when the measured gas is different from the calibration conditions, the thermal mass sensor will calculate a different flow rate.

Air flow / Air velocity-FDM06-P Pitot Tube Thermal Mass Flowmeter 5. Flow volumetric rate calculation and profile factor When the gas passes through the duct, the viscosity between the gas and the duct wall causes the wind speed near the wall to be zero (No-slip condition). As the distance from the duct wall increases, the wind speed gradually increases and reaches the maximum value at the center of the cross section.
Pitot Tube Thermal Mass Flowmeter V. RS-485 and Modbus FDM06-P integrates a RS-485 interface for digital communication as an option feature. Based on Modbus protocol makes the general convenience on PLC, HMI and PC connection. For Modbus protocol information please download the file from website.
