PCE-HVAC 2 Multifunction HVAC meter with a pitot tube
Measures air velocities up to 80 m/s (178.66 mph) / Zero, minimum, maximum, average, record and hold functions / Stores to memory up to 99 measurement values per parameter
PCE-HVAC 2 is a high-velocity multifunction HVAC meter with a pitot tube. This portable HVAC meter can be used to determine air speed, air pressure, air flow, differential pressure and ambient temperature. The pitot tube allows access through tiny openings to take measurements in small pipe systems and other confined spaces.
- Measures air velocities up to 80 meters per second (m / s)
- Zero, minimum, maximum, average, record and hold functions
- Stores to memory up to 99 measurement values per parameter
Stored measurement values can be called or read out later on the device itself or on the computer. The transfer to a computer works easily via a USB interface. A real-time measurement can also be carried out via this interface. When a USB connection is established, the measured values are displayed on the computer screen using the downloadable PC-compatible software. In addition to an ergonomic design, the anemometer boasts a backlit display that enables use in low-light conditions. The PCE-HVAC 2 has a thread on the bottom, so the device can be mounted on a tripod. The measuring hoses are inserted at the top of the device allowing for connection to the pitot tube.
