- HVAC commissioning and trouble shooting
- Laboratory safety monitoring
- Air conditioning and ventilation duct checks

Features

Instrument overview

  • Measures both air velocity and temperature
  • Sweep mode for one overall measurement
  • Log, store and recall data
  • Download data to a PC
  • Optional telescopic probe available
  • Clear digital display

The LCA501 product can be supplied with an optional rectangular and circular Aircone kit which turns the instrument into an air volume balancing tool.
