Required
The P-5219 Linear Velocity
Transmitter is designed to
produce a linear 4.2 to 15 PSIG
(29 to 105 kPa) output signal
with respect to the calibrated
input velocity range of the
instrument. Applications for this
transmitter include constant
volume control and constant
volume differential control for
return fans on VAV systems.
Operation
The P-5219 employs a highly
sensitive differential pressure
diaphragm to compare static
and total pressure from a duct
mounted pitot tube or air flow
measuring station. The
resultant velocity pressure
signal is converted to a linear
velocity signal by an internal
square root extractor, which
eliminates the need for a
separate device.
Installation
The P-5219 should be located on
a vibration-free surface with the
diaphragm oriented within
5 angular degrees of a horizontal
plane. To install and calibrate
the P-5219, refer to Fig. 2 and
proceed as follows:
1. Secure the mounting
bracket to the surface using
