The Fluke PT12 is a professional 12-inch Pitot Tube primarily designed for measuring air flow, wind speed, and differential pressure in ventilation ducts, HVAC systems, process sections, and factories.
This tool is used when it is essential to accurately measure air speed or volumetric flow inside a duct; by connecting to a flow or differential pressure monitor, the user can measure wind speed using the pressure difference between the static point and the velocity point.
This tube, with its slim and robust design, enables entry into large industrial ventilation ducts. To achieve accurate measurements, the shape and positioning of the tube are crucial, and the PT12 model is designed to minimize interference with air flow, delivering reliable results. This tool is a practical option for ventilation engineers, maintenance technicians, and industrial inspectors.
