Overview

Dräger air flow indicators make air movement visible. The battery-powered Flow Check makes a harmless smoke cloud with the same density as air for ventilation, fume hood and leak checks; the Air Flow Tester uses smoke tubes and a rubber bulb for quick checks of air current direction and speed.

  • Flow Check smoke has the same density as air, so it drifts with the slightest air movement
  • Smoke comes from an environmentally safe alcohol-based fluid; works in any orientation, as single puffs or continuously
  • One ampoule gives about 3 minutes of smoke; one battery charge runs about 20 minutes
  • Flow Check kit: indicator, battery charger, 3 ampoules and battery pack in a transport case
  • Air Flow Tester: tubes with fuming sulfuric acid make white smoke when air is pumped through with the bulb
  • Air Flow Tester tubes reseal with rubber caps and stay usable until the smoke runs out
  • For HVAC adjustment, fume hood and chimney checks, leak detection and air movement in mines and plants

Refill air flow test tubes (pack of 10) are on our DrägerTubes page. Request a quote for pricing and availability.
