Product Overview
The Aplisens VM-3 & VM-5 Valve Manifolds are configured per application (3-valve vs 5-valve, packing type, mounting/handle, and accessories like impulse line connectors). For accurate pricing, please call 865-900-8844 or email KSmith@CPSCalibrations.com.
The Aplisens VM-3 (3-valve) and VM-5 (5-valve) valve manifolds are used with relative pressure transmitters. They allow essential operations such as start-up and zero setting under static or atmospheric pressure conditions. The VM-5 also allows a calibrator to be connected for metrological testing of the transmitter.
- Manifold types: 3-valve (VM-3) and 5-valve (VM-5)
- Body material: 316 stainless steel
- Purpose: isolation, equalization, vent/test connections (model dependent)
- Easy operation: precision manufacturing for smooth valve open/close
