• External capillary: closed to test port
• Shut off / dumping / by-pass valve
• 2 pneumatic outputs for control of sealing connectors
• Memory card for archiving results (up to 400,000)

Technology
Laminar flow measurement principle: gas flows through a calibrated flow tube generating a pressure drop measured by a differential pressure transducer. The pressure difference between inlet and outlet of the laminar flow element is measured to determine flow. The part under test pressure is measured by a dedicated sensor.
