Inline flow meter: Your gas and compressed air flow meter for smaller diameters

The VPFlowScope^® In-line flow meter is the ideal flow meter for point of use consumption measurement. It measures bi-directional mass flow, temperature and pressure simultaneously. It can be used as an inline air flow meter or inline gas flow meter. It is perfect for smaller diameters where it produces all the data you need to optimize your compressed air and gas consumption. The VPFlowScope In-line flow meter offers different measurement units. It can be used as a CFM air flow meter or CFM gas flow meter. The other option is to use it as a m3/hr air flow meter or m3/hr gas flow meter. With the VPFlowScope^® In-line flow meter you don’t only see your energy consumption, but you can also check the efficiency of your distribution network as well as your true savings potential. It provides all the necessary data to make the right decisions every day.

On the bright blue display you can see the real-time data but if you want more analyses, you can combine this instrument with the built-in data logger, which enables you to record for certain periods of time. When you install our VPStudio software on your PC, you are able to process data, print reports, and make smart analyses to find out where and how you can save money in your organization.
