Platon FloBar averaging pitot tube
FloBar tubes contain no moving parts. Standard models are manufactured from stainless steel, though alternative material requirements are readily accommodated.
More details:
Process connection options range from resealable compression fittings, through fixed flanges to valved hot tap variants, making installation a straightforward operation. Local indication or retransmission devices mate directly with the FloBar’s integral three-valve manifold.
