All-in-one flow meter for compressed air and technical gases

The VPFlowScope^® M is a four-in-one bidirectional flow meter for compressed air, nitrogen, oxygen, helium, argon and other industrial gases. It can be installed under pressure and measures bi-directional flow, pressure, temperature and totalized flow, simultaneously. The optional data logger has a 1-year automated retention policy. The VPFlowScope M is available in two sizes, the P350 and P220, designed to accommodate different pipe diameters. Both sizes maintain high accuracy and reliability, making the VPFlowScope M a versatile solution for compressed air and technical gas flow measurements.
