Decision-making-tool for using pitot tubes

Pitot tubes make your energy flows transparent. Ever considered a retrofit?

Pitot tubes are always a popular choice if you wish to add differential pressure measurement at a later date.
They can be retrofitted at no great cost, quickly and easily, without needing to cut piping open. When combined with a flow computer with active density compensation, this set is also suitable for maximum requirements in terms of uncertainty. Curious to know whether retrofitting will also work with your process? Then try out the decision-making-tool and get an individual result in just a few clicks.

  1. Flow measurement of gases, vapours and liquids from DN 40 to DN 2000 Quick and easy installation and retrofitting without additional engineering, impulse lines and brackets High accuracy, low residual pressure loss

The OPTIBAR PT 2000 dynamic pressure probe is particularly suitable for retrofitting into existing pipework at low cost. A simple 25 mm hole and the welding of the mounting part to match the pipework enables flow measurements to be retrofitted, especially in sub-distributions that were previously ignored. Additional compensation of the operating density is required, especially in the event of major fluctuations in pressure or temperature.

A fully compensated OPTIBAR PT 2000 is also suitable for measuring steam or compressed air with the highest measurement uncertainty requirements. The OPTIBAR FC 1000 volume corrector provides active density compensation as well as automatic split-range evaluation of two differential pressure transmitters to ensure overall measurement uncertainties of < 1%. For a verifiable reference within the framework of the Implementing Regulation 2018/2066/EU (‘Monitoring Regulation’), wet calibration in accordance with ISO 17025 can also be offered.
