General Description
vent-captor air flow monitors are solid state switch and monitoring devices for use in industrial air handling applications. vent-captor air flow monitors are self-contained switching devices without any mechanical moving parts, which convert flow conditions into electrical switching signals. vent-captor air flow monitors can be simply installed into any air flow and perform reliably even under most harsh environmental conditions.
Typical Application :
vent-captor air flow monitors can be applied wherever air operates as an industrial medium, e.g. air conditioning, ventilation, air filter monitoring, extraction fans, blowers, damper regulators and controlling air flow rates in energy conservation systems. The vent-captor is also ideal for monitoring air flow in thyristor cabinets, motor/generators and shipping containers.
Operating principle:
The vent-captor operation is based on advanced calorimetric technology. One of the two ceramic sensor probes is slightly heated while an identical sensor probe tracks the medium temperature. The heated probe is cooled proportional to flow such that the temperature difference between the probes is relative to the flow velocity. This temperature difference is measured electronically and converted into the desired electrical switching signal.

This thermal principle provides for a switching delay to permit a continuous and reliable signal even under turbulent conditions. During initial start-up, the ventcaptor indicates flow for a short period regardless of the actual flow condition, eliminating the need for additional circuit logic.
