VA 520 – Thermal Mass Flow Meter for Flow Measurement

With the VA 520, you can document and cut down on your energy costs while boosting sustainability. This device enables you to keep track of your consumption and analyze leakages by having a permanent flow meter installed at distribution stations, individual departments, or for the purpose of billing individual consumers.
