Vectoflow | Authorized U.S. Distributor

Customizable Flow Probes for Demanding Test Environments

K-Tec Systems is an authorized U.S. distributor for Vectoflow, supplying application-specific flow measurement probes for aerospace, automotive, turbomachinery and research testing.

About Vectoflow

Application-Specific Probes, Built to Order

Vectoflow is a flow measurement company based in Gilching, Germany. It designs and builds customizable pressure and temperature probes, including probes produced by 3D printing, and air data systems.

Because each probe is built for a specific test article, geometry, length and mounting can be matched to your application rather than selected from a fixed catalog. Vectoflow calibrates its multi-hole probes in its own wind tunnel.

K-Tec Systems supplies these probes in the United States, quotes them from your drawing or test requirements, and supports them with thermocouples, RTDs and cabling built in Ferndale, Michigan.

K-Tec Systems Integration

Combined Flow and Temperature Measurement

K-Tec Systems builds the sensing and cabling around the probe, so one U.S. team can support the whole measurement chain, from thermocouples and RTDs to wire harnesses.

Probe-Integrated Thermocouples

K-Tec Systems builds thermocouple assemblies in Ferndale, Michigan, so pressure and temperature can be measured at the same point in the flow.

Custom RTD Integration

RTD sensing elements built to your mounting and temperature range, supplied alongside the probe.

Wire Harnesses and Cabling

Instrumentation cabling and harnesses made to your test article, from the sensor to the data acquisition system.

U.S. Application Support

One U.S. team to review your test, recommend a configuration, quote it and support it after delivery.
