Testo, For Use With testo 526, testo 512, testo 521, testo 420

This pitot tube from Testo allows for the accurate measurement of air or liquid pressure in pipes, ducts or weirs. The tube is made from high-quality stainless steel, which offers excellent chemical and corrosion resistance. As this metal is durable and long-lasting, the tube is ideal for measuring high-flow velocities or heavily contaminated atmospheres. This component is compatible with Testo 512 manometers, which simultaneously offer pressure and flow measurements in one compact instrument.

• Extremely wide operating temperature range of 0°C to +600°C for use in harsh environments

• Refrigeration and cold storage

A pitot tube works according to a basic principle of fluid mechanics: if a fluid stops flowing, its kinetic energy is converted into pressure energy. The tube works by assisting in measuring the pressure energy of stopped fluid at any point in a pipe or channel.
