Wilson Flowgrid
Description
Wilson Flow Grids are the most accurate flow grid type within the product
range. They are supplied to suit rectangular or round ducts.
Wilson Flowgrids comprise of a number of tubes that span the whole duct
area. Each tube has a number of flow sensing positions some of which face
upstream and some downstream, hence the generation of the pressure
differential. It is this vast array of sensing positions spanning the whole duct
area that makes the Wilson Flowgrid the most accurate within the flowgrid
range. By design all Wilson Flow Grids generate “enhanced” differential
pressure signals.
Rectangular Flowgrids
Rectangular flowgrids are fabricated using two horizontal steel tubes and a number of vertical pressure sensing tubes which are bound together
with Acetal plastic joints. The vertical tubes are positioned so that the pressure sensing ports in the tubes alternately face upstream and
downstream. The two horizontal tubes then generate the averaged signal for both the upstream and downstream pressures, thus producing the
differential pressure.
Radial Flowgrids
Radial flowgrids work in exactly the same way as rectangular flowgrids with the
main difference between the two types being the method of fabrication.
Unlike rectangular Wilson Flowgrids, radial Flowgrids are a fully welded stainless
steel construction. There are no plastic parts and so by default, are all high
temperature graded, and compatible with some, but not all, chemical and harsh
environments.
Wilson Flowgrids are Sensing Precisions most accurate flowgrid for the measurement and primary control of airflow. The differential pressure
output signal directly relates to volume flow within the duct and when used with a pressure transmitter can be directly used to control volume flow
accurately.
Wilson Flowgrids can be supplied pre-installed in a duct, and where turbulence is present, can also be supplied with a honeycomb flow straightener.
