The LV 130 precisely measures air velocity and ambient temperature with a rotating vane probe.
Measuring Units: °F, °C, m³/s, m/s, l/s, m³/h, km/h, fpm, cfm
Parameters: Air velocity, Airflow and Temperature
Operating Principle of the Thermo-anemometer with vane probe
Air velocity: Hall effect sensor
Rotation of the vane probe leads to a circular magnet of 8 poles. A dual Hall effect sensor, placed next to the magnet captures the signals of magnetic field polarity transition. The sensor signal is converted to electrical frequency and is proportional to the rotation velocity of the vane probe. Signal chronology allows to determine the rotation direction.
Thermometer: NTC probe
Negative temperature coefficient probes are thermistors with a resistance that decreases with temperature according to the equation below:
RT = resistance sensor value at temperature T
R(T0 ) = resistance sensor value at reference temperature T0 T and T0 in °C
α and T0 sensor specific constants
