Mid-West Instrument: Delta Tubes – Averaging Pitot Tubes

Manufactured based on proven design of Mid-West, USA, these are rugged in construction, and simple to install. The flow sensor is a multi-ported averaging pitot tube which spans the entire flow profile and produces differential pressure which has square root relationship with flow rate. Based on pipe or duct size the Delta Tube is constructed so that strategically located sensing ports continually sample the impact and static pressures produced by the Delta tube’s obstruction of the flow stream profile. Within the probe the impact pressures sensed by the upstream are continually averaged in an isolated plenum chamber. Similarly the static pressures sensed by the downstream ports are averaged in a second isolated plenum chamber. All conventional secondary instruments can be used for direct measurement, or transmission of the differential pressure produced by the Delta Tube which is proportional to square of flow rate.

SKI: SDF Sensor – Averaging Pitot Tubes – Gases, Liquids & Steam

Ski Sdf Flow Sensor Cmc

SKI SDF-Sensors are using the averaging pitot tube technology and can be used wherever flow rates of gases or liquids are to be measured. They have been proven in practice to be reliable, stable and accurate for more than 25 years.

SDF-Sensors for steam probes are used wherever flow or heat quantity of superheated or satured steam is to be measured. They have been proven in practice to be reliable, stable and accurate for more than 25 years.

Due to the robust technology and the simple principle of measurement averaging pitot tubes  can be used in many different ways even under difficult conditions and offer considerable advantages over other measuring technology from easy installation to long-term measuring stability.

Further special advantages are the possibilities of bidirectional flow measurement as well as the integration of temperature and pressure measurement.
