Funktion

When measuring air flow using the differential pressure method, the air flow is measured at 2 points in the tunnel cross-section. The method allows the electronic components to be optionally removed from the tunnel in order to maintain the measurement even at high temperatures. Two differential pressure pitot tubes are mounted opposite each other on the tunnel walls. The measurement at 2 points enables representative averaging of the flow over the tunnel cross-section.

An air flow in the tunnel increases the dynamic pressure on the flow side of a differential pressure pitot tube. The static pressure is present on the opposite side. The air velocity is calculated from the pressure difference, taking the temperature into account. The calculated air velocities of several pitot tubes are averaged.

The measured variables output are air velocity, flow direction and air temperature.

smart/HUB is a universal data acquisition device for recording and storing sensor data in IP networks or forwarding it to a server. Various interfaces are available on the basic device or via extensions to connect the sensors. Extensions are connected to the base unit via a bus connector integrated into the DIN rail.

Advantages

Specially developed for use in tunnels
Automatic zeroing
Corrosion-resistant against tunnel atmosphere
Measurement also possible under high temperatures
Permanent condition monitoring
Centralised administration
Remote maintenance
Flexible integration into the control system

Application

Tunnels are important infrastructure elements in road networks and facilitate the connection of regions.

Environmental conditions in tunnels are influenced by fog, particles and emissions and need to be monitored to protect people on their passage through the tunnel from danger and impacts on their health. Accidents in tunnels, and particularly fires, can have dramatic consequences and can prove extremely costly in terms of human life, increased congestion, pollution and repair costs. At every time people in the tunnel need to be supplied with breathable air and sufficient visibility.

Since 1990 JES Elektrotechnik GmbH develops, installs and maintains systems to monitor air characteristics and lighting conditions in tunnels. Our systems are robust, durable and resistant against the corrosive atmosphere in a tunnel. They operate reliably and have a high accuracy in measurement.

All systems fulfil the requirements of the EC guideline 2004/54/EC (Minimum safety requirements for tunnels in the trans-European road network) and the more detailed national guidelines and provisions:

Austria: RVS 09.02 Tunnelausrüstung
Germany: RABT Richtlinien für die Ausstattung und den Betrieb von Straßentunneln
Switzerland: ASTRA Richtlinien und Fachhandbuch Betriebs- und Sicherheitsausrüstungen (BSA)

Our range of products for tunnel covers systems for monitoring of

Visibility (extractive or in-situ)
Toxic gases like CO, NO, NO₂ (extractive or in-situ)
Air velocity, direction and temperature
Luminance (access, threshold and interior zone)
Illuminance
