Cost savings to be made in compressed
air systems?
E-T-A has introduced a new plug-in flow meter to accurately measure even very small air flow rates in compressed air systems.
E-T-A has introduced a new plug-in flow meter to accurately measure even very small air flow rates in compressed air systems Available from the specialist control and instrumentation company, Cache Instrumentation, the meters are designed to identify cost savings by detecting leakages and by matching air supply to demand

Combined switch/circuit breaker for simulators
E-T-A has introduced a new combined switch/circuit breaker which has been designed especially for aircraft simulators, and has exactly the same 'feel' as E-T-A's operational flight-deck products
The E-T-A FM1-CA Flow Meter series measures a range of gas flow rates for pipe diameters from DN15 up to DN50.
By plugging directly into uniformly sized sensor adapters, measurements can be taken in main and secondary pipelines throughout a compressed air system.
The calorimetric measuring device ensures reliable measurement of even very small volume flows, while consumption measurements ensure compressed air supply is matched to demand.
The measurements are carried out by a CSP Monitoring Head plugged into a TP sensor adapter, which itself is screwed into a connector located in the pipeline.
The monitoring head provides two freely scaleable analogue outputs, one for mass, standard or operating volume flow, the other for temperature.
The volume flow rates are from 0m3/h up to 50m3/h for the smallest pipe, and from 0m3/h up to 480m3/h for the largest.
The signal is fed by a single lead to the separate FM 1-CA micro-controlled meter which can be rail mounted. Request a free brochure from E-T-A Circuit Breakers ...
