Gold Series

GTx116e-P

The GTx116e-P series is EBTRON’s premium multipoint thermal dispersion airflow and temperature measurement solution for accurate, repeatable measurements in ducts and plenums. Multiple sensor nodes provide precise measurement of critical airstream parameters. Advanced airflow and temperature measurement, alarm capabilities, and BACnet® or Modbus® connectivity provide a versatile solution for a wide range of HVAC applications. Select models include an integral relative humidity sensor with onboard barometric pressure sensing and velocity-weighted temperature to calculate relative humidity, enthalpy, and dew point accurately. The GTx116e-P series is ideal for supply, return, exhaust, and outdoor air intake applications.
