Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides technical specifications and features of the VAP3® Integral Heated Pitot by Eastern Instruments, designed to prevent freezing and ensure accurate air flow measurement in challenging environments.

Integral Heating System
The system prevents freezing down to -22°F (-30°C) and includes a controller package with the following features:
  • Solid State Relay (SSR) for each Pitot.
  • Power input options of 208/240/277 VAC.
  • Power consumption between 75 and 100 Watts per inch of actively measuring Pitot.
  • NEMA 4 enclosure with instruments mounted on a half-panel inside.
  • Over-temperature remote trip controller set to 176°F (80°C) per Pitot.
  • Temperature controller set at 50°F (10°C) per Pitot.
  • Low and high temperature alarm contacts.
  • Optional non-fusible disconnect with door handle.

VAP3® Heated Pitot Features
The VAP3® Heated Pitot utilizes original VAP3® Pitot technology to provide accurate differential pressure output and expand temperature ranges. It is suitable for locations prone to ice build-up, such as cooling towers and areas with freezing rain.

Specifications
  • Designed for accuracy in both clean air and particulate-laden applications.
  • Constructed from strong anodized aluminum with a Rockwell Hardness of 65C.
  • Composed of 6063 aluminum extrusion.
  • Highly customizable port options.
  • 72” probes available for larger ducts, with the option to use multiple probes.
  • Can be installed as individual Pitots or as an array depending on duct size.
  • Includes termination heads on Pitots.

Heated Pitot - Insertion Probe for Air Flow Measurement: Spec Sheet-1

Integral Heating System The VAP3® Integral Heated Pitot utilizes the original VAP3® Pitot technology to deliver an extremely accurate differen‐ tial pressure output, while expanding the traditional temperature ranges handled by the Pitots. Retaining the versatility and accuracy of the original VAP3® Pitot, the Integral Heated Pitot allows accurate air flow measure‐ ment in any location where ice build up is present, including the surrounding areas of cooling towers and in areas that are prone to freezing rain.
