Production Description CS Instruments Mass Flow Meter VA520 flowmeter for compressed air
With the development of modern industry, energy saving and environmental protection have become more and more crucial, and are also very concerned by most advanced enterprises. As a new type of power source, compressed air should be applied to every corner of the enterprise in an all-round way. At the same time, how to ensure the efficient operation of compressed air, flow detection and control become very important. As we all know, the compressor converts 85% of electricity into heat, and only 15% into compressed air, so compressed air is much more expensive than electricity. Effective monitoring and management of compressed air is a lot smarter.
