Air flow and pressure management are vital parts of HVAC operations in critical environments like manufacturing clean rooms. To help facility managers ensure that conditions stay within necessary parameters, Sensaphone has added two new sensors to its line of remote monitoring equipment for HVAC applications.

The Sensaphone Duct Mount Air Flow Transmitter measures the rate of airflow and alerts users when conditions fall outside of the preset threshold. The transmitter monitors the presence or absence of cool moving air and measures relative airflow from 0-16 meters per second.

It can be used with any Sensaphone monitoring device that accepts a 4-20 mA input signal. It is especially useful for monitoring air conditioning in ducts. The Sensaphone Differential Pressure Sensor measures air pressure in two areas and indicates if there is a difference between the readings. This sensor is ideal for clean room applications where air pressure must be the same in both rooms to prevent a vacuum upon opening a door that could pull dust or other pollutants into the space.

The sensor monitors positive and negative pressure from the two included duct mounts

Sensaphone offers both duct-mounted and wall-mounted sensors that send data to any Sensaphone monitoring device that accepts a 4-20 mA signal. Users can log data, view status in real time and receive alarms if the pressures exceed set parameters. The duct-mounted Differential Pressure Sensor features excellent tolerance to overpressure and vibration.

This high-accuracy digital sensor maintains calibration and reduces unnecessary alerts. The sensor monitors positive and negative pressure from the two included duct mounts. The kit also includes 12 feet of tubing for connecting the duct mounts to the sensor, mounting hardware and installation instructions.

The wall-mounted Differential Pressure Sensor kit comes with two recessed pickup tubes to monitor differential pressure away from the sensor. The sensor monitors positive and negative pressure from the two included wall mounts. It also includes two sets of 12-foot tubing for connecting the wall mounts to the sensor, mounting hardware and installation instructions.
