Automation Components Inc (ACI) SPT-8 Pilot Tube
The Automation Components Inc (ACI) SPT-8 Pilot Tube is a high-performance aluminum pitot tube engineered for precision in industrial and commercial HVACR applications. Specifically designed as a static pressure probe, this 8-inch duct pressure sensor is essential for monitoring air velocity and system performance. By integrating a single-point sensing tip that opens parallel to the airstream, the ACI SPT-8 provides highly accurate static pressure measurement to ensure your ventilation systems operate at peak efficiency. Its lightweight yet durable aluminum construction makes it an ideal choice for HVAC duct sensors used to detect filter blockage, monitor fan operation, or manage reduced airflow in non-critical environments.
Key Benefits
- Precision Monitoring: Specifically engineered to capture accurate static pressure readings within HVAC ductwork.
- Durable Aluminum Design: Robust construction ensures longevity and resistance to typical mechanical wear in air handling units.
- Versatile Compatibility: Features a 1.50-inch mounting flange and 45-degree barbed connections that accept 1/8” through 1/4” ID flexible tubing.
- Easy Installation: Designed for simple mounting 5 to 8 duct diameters downstream from obstructions to minimize turbulence.
- Optimized Airflow: Helps in identifying filter blockage and reduced air flow to prevent system strain and energy waste.
Common Questions
Where should the SPT-8 be mounted for the most accurate readings?
For optimal results, the probe should be installed in a straight section of duct, approximately 5 to 8 duct diameters downstream from any elbows or obstructions to ensure a laminar flow.
What size tubing is compatible with this pitot tube?
The ACI SPT-8 uses universal 45-degree barbed fittings that are compatible with standard 1/8" to 1/4" ID flexible plastic tubing.
Can this probe be used for velocity pressure as well as static pressure?
While the SPT series is primarily utilized as an aspiration probe for static pressure, it can be used in conjunction with other sensors to calculate velocity pressure in specific duct orientations.
