Part Number: AVUL-5DM1
The Dwyer AVUL-5DM1 is built for higher-velocity duct applications, providing reliable air velocity measurement across a range of 1000 to 4000 FPM (5–20 m/s). With 5% of reading accuracy and Modbus RTU/ASCII communication, it is designed for integration with compatible building management systems and HVAC controllers.
The transmitter offers four field-selectable velocity ranges: 1000, 2000, 3000, or 4000 FPM (5, 10, 15, or 20 m/s). This allows the device to be configured according to the airflow requirements of the specific duct system.
A NEMA 4X (IP66) enclosure provides protection suitable for mechanical rooms and plenum environments. The AVUL-5DM1 operates from 32 to 122°F (0–50°C) and supports 5–95% RH non-condensing humidity conditions.
The transmitter has a response time of approximately 4 seconds under typical conditions and 1 second at constant temperature, making it suitable for real-time AHU and fan-control applications. It operates on 24 VDC or 24 VAC, with a maximum current consumption of 60 mA.
This variant does not include a local display. Air velocity readings are transmitted through Modbus to the connected BMS or controller. Its compact body is designed for installation with a standard duct probe assembly, while BTL and CE approvals support applicable integration and electrical requirements.
For applications where local monitoring is required, the Dwyer AVUL-5DM1-LCD provides the same high-velocity measurement and Modbus communication capabilities with an integrated 5-digit LCD.
