FKS 1DP-PBM Multi-Function Meter
Exceptionally Accurate and Reliable Pressure, Velocity and Flow Meter
The FKS 1DP-PBM is a feature-rich, state-of-the-art multi-function meter designed for fast and accurate pressure, velocity and flow measurement. The meter has unmatched ease of use due to its prompt driven user interface and intuitive operation. It is the perfect companion for testing and balancing, velocity traverses, HVAC, process control, stack testing, R & D, pressure measurements across fans, filters, etc.
Features
- Auto-zero function. Internal valve removes pressure or velocity offsets. Your reference level never changes, ensuring unmatched accuracy and reliability. You can even set the auto-zero time interval!
- Real Auto-Zero capability
- Measures true differential (+ and -), static & gauge pressure
- Calculates velocity (both standard and actual)
- Accurate volumetric flow rate (Pitot routine or memory log)
- K factor
- Density correction
- Data logging (10,000rdgs) with recall statistics
- Intelligent automatic damping (averaging or smoothing)
- Metric and Imperial units
- Minimum & maximum reading
- Data hold (screen freeze)
- Turbulence indicator
- Overload protection
- Powerful statistics to calculate standard deviations
- PC compatibility (SwiftLink download software)
- Variable screen contrast

SwiftLink Downloading Utility
The FKS 1DP-PBM comes with SwiftLink to download its memory contents into a computer either directly into an Excel® worksheet or a text file. Output includes value, units, reading number, group ID, group average, group max value and group min value. Downloaded data is organized into two main sections: one for manual logging and one for automatic logging. Flow surveys are also retrieved as separate groups.
