VA 500 – Flow meter for Compressed Air and Gases

Our VA500 enables you to record and decrease energy costs and CO2 emissions, thereby enhancing the sustainability of any compressed air system. With this single measuring device, you can monitor your consumption and analyze leakage flows. Thanks to its design, it’s also perfectly suited for mobile measurements.
