Intelligent solutions for accurate consumption measurement for compressed air and gases The new affordable consumption counters VA 420 work according to the approved calorimentric measuring principle. In this process a heated sensor is cooled down by the gas circulating around it. The flowdependent cooling-down is used as a measuring effect while the degree of cooling-down is directly depending on the passing air resp. gas mass. Therefore, an additional pressure and temperature compensation is not necessary. Due to its compact design it is possible to monitor all compressed air systems from the compressor to the smallest compressed air tool (½ to 2 inch) with the new affordable consumption counter VA 420. VA 400 consumption sensors are available for larger pipe diameters from DN 50 to DN 300. Apart from compressed air also other gases like e. g. nitrogen, oxygen and CO2 can be measured. The installation of the compressed air counters VA 420 can be done easily and quickly. A special advantage is the removable measuring device. The measuring device can be demounted quickly and easily for calibration or cleaning purposes without removing the complete measuring section. 
Consumption counter with integrated measuring section (1/4″ to 2″ with/without weld neck flange).

Application-technological features of the consumption counters VA 420:

• Easy and affordable installation
• Units freely selectable via keypad m³/h, m³/min, l/min, l/s, kg/h, kg/min, kg/s, cfm
• Compressed air counter up to 1,999,999,999 m³. Resettable to “zero” via keypad
• Analogue output 4…20 mA, pulse output (galvanically seperated)
• High measuring accuracy also in the lower measuring range (ideal for leakage measurement)
• Negligibly small loss pressure
• Calorimetric measuring principle, no additional pressure and temperature measurement necessary, no mechanically moved parts
• Gas types adjustable via software (nitrogen, oxygen, CO₂, nitrous oxide, argon)

Application range of VA 420:

• Compressed air balancing, compressed air consumption measurement
• Leakage air / leak rate determination
• Mobile compressed air measurement in front of single machines / plants

Product Details:

The thermal flow direction switch VA 409 with direction indication serves for determination of the flow direction of compressed air and gases especially in closed circular pipelines. By means of VA 409 with flow direction indication the flow direction of the compressed air can be determined quickly and safely. Compared with the former mechanical paddle flow switches VA 409 is able to detect even the smallest changes in the flow direction quickly and without any mechanical movement. The direction information in form of a potential-free contact (normally closed max. 60 VDC, 0.5 A) is transferred to the flow sensors VA 5xx or to a separate building management system (mbs). Two LEDs show the flow direction. In connection with 2 flow sensors VA 5xx incoming and out flowing compressed air in closed circular pipelines can be measured precisely.

Special features:

• Detects smallest changes < 0,1 m/s referrend to 20°C and 1.000 mbar 
• No mechanical wear parts 
• Easy installation under pressure

Product Details:

If gases escape through leaks in piping systems (e. g. untight screwed connections, corrosions and so on) ultrasonic noises are generated. By means of LD 400 even the smallest leakages which cannot be heard by the human ear and which are not visible due to their size can be detected even from distances of several meters. LD 400 transforms the inaudible signals into a frequency which can be identified. By means of the comfortable sound-proof headset these noises can be realized even in extremely noisy environments. The LD 400 leak detector is the advancement of the proven LD 300 and it convinces by its obviously refined sensor technology and its improved support in the tracing of leaks. By means of the integrated laser pointer which serves for target heading the leak can be localized more accurately. 

Special features:

• Robustness and the little weight ensure a fatigue-proof use in industrial environments 
• Improved detection of leaks with optional acoustic trumpet 
• Modern lithium-ion battery with high capacity, external recharger
