Description
Overview
The testo 511 is a pocket-sized absolute pressure measuring instrument, offering high-precision measurements crucial for HVAC and industrial applications. It accurately measures absolute pressure and can calculate barometric altitude between two points.
This compact meter is ideal for density compensation in flow measurement within ducts, laboratories, and production processes. It converts absolute pressure to barometric air pressure by inputting the on-site altitude.
Key Features & Inclusions
- High-precision absolute pressure measurement with ±3 hPa accuracy.
- Capable of barometric altitude measurements and calculating barometric air pressure.
- Supports 8 pressure units: Pa, hPa, mbar, mmHg, mmH₂O, inHg, inH₂O, and psi.
- Compact, handy, and user-friendly design.
- Includes protective cap, belt pouch, 2 AAA batteries, and a calibration protocol.
