Dwyer AVLV-2DA1-LCD Air Velocity Transmitter

Product Information

The Series AVLV Air Velocity Transmitter is a device that is designed to quickly and accurately measure air velocity orvolumetric flow. It is capable of providing measurements in both imperial and metric units. The transmitter offers simultaneous current and voltage outputs on all models, allowing for universal inputs to monitoring equipment. The unit can be configured through local DIP switches, which control the output range, units, and 0-5/10 VDC, 4-20 mA output. Additionally, the transmitter can be equipped with an optional integral display or a portable remote tool for local monitoring and configuration.

Specifications

  • Model: AVLV
  • Accuracy: 2
  • Mounting: Duct mount
  • Output: Analog universal (0-5 VDC, 0-10 VDC, 4-20 mA)
  • Options: FC Factory calibration certificate, GLD Electrical cable gland, LCD LCD display, NIST NIST certificate

Accuracy Chart

The accuracy of the measurements depends on the specific model selected when ordering. Please refer to the accuracy rating provided for each model.

Warranty

The Series AVLV Air Velocity Transmitter comes with a year limited warranty.

Product Usage Instructions

  1. Choose the appropriate model of the Series AVLV Air Velocity Transmitter based on your requirements.
  2. Mount the transmitter in the duct using the duct mount option.
  3. If necessary, connect the electrical cable gland for secure cable connection.
  4. Configure the output range, units, and 0-5/10 VDC, 4-20 mA output using the local DIP switches.
  5. If desired, attach the optional integral display or use the portable remote tool for local monitoring and configuration.
  6. Refer to the accuracy chart to determine the accuracy rating of your specific model.
  7. For any warranty claims or issues, contact DWYER INSTRUMENTS, LLC.

Note: Please refer to the complete user manual for detailed instructions and safety guidelines.

DIMENSION

The Series AVLV Air Velocity Transmitter quickly and accurately measures air velocity or volumetric flow in imperial or metric units. Simultaneous current and voltage outputs on all models provide universal inputs to monitoring equipment while the output range, units, and 0-5/10 VDC, 4-20 mA output can be configured via local DIP switches. The optional integral display, or the portable remote tool, provides a convenient way to locally monitor process values and configure the unit. Models are available in 1% and 2% accuracy models and low velocity ranges to suit a variety of needs, and the optional BACnet MS/TP or Modbus® RTU/ASCII communication protocol allows units to be daisy-chained while providing access to all of the velocity and flow data, as well as additional information such as air temperature. The lower ranges in these high-accuracy units allow for applications in quality-intensive environments, such as the pharmaceutical industry.

BENEFITS/FEATURES

  • Minimal preventative maintenance as sensing element is covered with an engineered protective coating
  • Easy field setup via the on board dip switches for range and units

APPLICATIONS

  • VAV systems
  • Building ducts
  • Clean room systems
