Flow Bench Test Pressure (or depression) Controller

The Flow Bench Controller will control the AC power to your flow bench motors.  Our Port Flow Analyzer software will communicate to the USB Micro Controller as to what test pressure you want to set.  Once set, the controller concentrates on holding test pressure constant while you open or close the valve in the cylinder head, or throttle plate for testing carburetors.  

The controller consists of 2 items:

USB Micro Controller (part number PFA-USBC) with pressure sensor and USB communications to the Port Flow Analyzer software. 
The Power Module which regulates the AC power to the bench.   This receives a signal from the USB Micro telling it how much voltage to provide to the flow bench motors.
 

 

Part Number PFA-USBC

 

Features include:

Separate Power Control Module available for either 110 or 220 VAC power, and current up to 50 amps.
Great for DIY (do it yourself) flow benches.
Eliminates the need for separate switches for different motors, or mechanical valves to control test pressure.
Improves accuracy because test pressure is held constant.
Saves time since control is automatic.
Greatly reduces heat because motors receive only the power needed.
Works with most any style flow bench where AC power to the bench goes entirely to the motors.  (Some SuperFlow tm benches require power for both the motors and lights, relays, etc.  These may not good candidates for this style controller at this time.  This type controller only works with centrifugal (vacuum cleaner style) motors, not positive displacement, "Roots" type blowers.  )
