TPI DC580 Digital Vane & Hot-Wire Air Flow Meter

The DC580 is the newest Wireless Hot-wire & Vane Anemometer available from TPI. This unit measures air velocity and temperature simultaneously and can calculate air flow using the inputted duct dimensions. The built-in Bluetooth LE can communicate with your smart device using the TPI App available for Android and Apple.

Key Features:

• Measure air velocity and temperature simultaneously
• Measure cubic feet per minute (CFM) without an air-balance hood
• Field replaceable smart hot wire and vane probes
• Communicate with Android & iOS Smart Phones using Bluetooth LE and TPI App
• Record minimum, maximum & average
• Multiple measuring units: m/s, km/h, ft/min, knots, mile/h
• Rubberized boot with magnets for hands-free operation
• Dual display with backlight
  

The new DC580 is great for taking air velocity measurements to performing air duct analysis for balancing commercial and residential HVAC systems. This anemometer features two probe options: a hot-wire probe or a vane probe. These probes are field replaceable so you dont have to pick one or the other. If you purchase a vane probe now you can easily purchase the hot-wire probe separately as the probes are not hard wired to the unit. This is a nice feature to have because accidents do happen on the job and if you break the probe or cut the cable you dont have to buy a whole new anemometer.

The hot wire probe has an air velocity range of 0.2 to 20 m/s (40 to 3900 fpm) with a resolution of 0.01 m/s or fpm. The Vane probe has an air velocity range of 0.4 to 25 m/s (80 fpm to 4910 fpm) and has a resolution of 0.1 m/s or fpm. The temperature range of both of these probes is -4 to 140 ºF and a resolution of 0.1 ºF.
