Pressure and Velocity Air Balancing Instruments
Magnehelic® Air Velocity Kit
Magnehelic® Air Velocity Kits contain gauge in plastic carrying case, with aluminum stand, two 1/8" NPT to rubber tubing adapters, 9 foot length of 3/16" tubing, and brass terminal tube.
Use with pitot tube (order separately) for air velocity measurement, or without pitot tube for pressure measurement. Magnehelic gauges are less sensitive to level than liquid, yet offer accuracy to ±2% over the full scale. Air Velocity Scale provides direct reading without conversions. They are handy to use on a ladder or in confined locations. Provides exceptionally responsive, consistently accurate indication of air velocity, positive, negative or differential pressures.

Air Velocity-Static Pressure Kit
Simplest, quickest to use air velocity instrument we know of. The AVK1000 Air Meter is very popular for service work or air conditioning, heating and ventilating equipment. Direct reading air velocity and static pressure scales — both high and low range — show supply and return grille velocities, duct air velocities, furnace draft, pressure drop across air filters, etc.
A Complete Pocket-Sized Kit!
Includes air meter, return and supply grille probes, angle connector, cleaning materials, instruction card, air velocity calculator, carrying case and one extra plastic ball in plastic tube.
Dwyer Magnehelic Gauges
- For positive, negative or differential air pressure
- Flush or surface mounted
- Wide choice of ranges available
Gauge Connections: 1/8" NPT high and low pressure taps, duplicate one pair side and one pair back. Valves showing are extra.
Applications:
- As an Air Filter Gauge measuring pressure drop across an air filter to indicate when filters need servicing.
- Sensing static pressure in an air system.
- Measuring air velocity in determining volume of flow.
Other magnehelic gauges are available in PSIG, KPA, and CM of water.
To sense static pressure For the most accurate measure of static pressure in an air stream, use a gauge connected to a static pressure tip such as DWYER Model A-301.
As a gauge to check air filters Gauge gives an instant visual indication when filters need servicing.

Static Pressure Tips
These sensors are used to sense static or differential pressure for duct or building pressure measurement.
Applications:
- manometers
- Magnehelic gauges
- pneumatic transmitters
- differential pressure switches
- low pressure transducers
- system powered controls
