Model 160G Averaging Air Flow Grid

The Model 160G Averaging Air Flow Grid utilizes 16 sensing points to provide precision sensing across its 16.5″ (41.9 cm) length and width. The ball pivot joint and tightening nut allows the user to position the sensing grid at any angle in any direction for ease of use in hard to reach locations. The included color coded tubing connects to the integral barbed fittings, providing a differential pressure signal to a gage or manometer where the readings can be converted into a velocity or flow reading.

Product Applications

• Measure face air velocity on grills, diffusers, registers, exhaust hoods

Operating Conditions & Performance

The Model 160G operates within a measurement range of 1000 to 5000 FPM (5 to 25 m/s) with an accuracy of ±2% FS. The instrument is rated for temperature limits from -40 to 257°F (-40° to 125°C). It utilizes a K Factor of 0.84 and accepts air or compatible gases as the service media.
