The PITOBAR Averaging Pitot Tube is used to measure the flow of liquid and gasses in horizontal or vertical pipe lines. Its working principle is derived from the classic or single point pitot tube. However, as opposed to the single point pitot tube, the PITOBAR Averaging Pitot Tube has a number of holes depending on pipe size pointing towards the upstream side. One port pointing downstream measures the static pressure. The main advantages of this flow element are its low installation costs and low pressure loss compared to other flow elements, especially in larger pipe sizes.
