testo 510 – Differential Pressure Meter

testo 510 – Differential Pressure Meter

Key Features & Design Highlights

• Temperature & Density Compensation: Features a temperature-compensated differential pressure sensor that yields reliable readings across varying environmental conditions.

• Flow Velocity Measurement: Connects to an optional Pitot tube to calculate airflow velocity ($\text{m/s}$ or $\text{fpm}$) with selectable air density parameters.

• 10 Selectable Units: Switch instantly between $\text{hPa}$, $\text{mbar}$, $\text{Pa}$, $\text{mmH}_2\text{O}$, $\text{mmHg}$, $\text{inH}_2\text{O}$, $\text{inHg}$, $\text{psi}$, $\text{m/s}$, and $\text{fpm}$.

• Hands-Free Operation: Integrated rear magnets securely attach the device to metal ductwork or boiler housing.

• Backlit Display: Backlit digital screen ensures full visibility in dark mechanical rooms and burner compartments.
