In PA mode, both the high-pressure and low-pressure ports are positioned so they face away from the oncoming air stream, making the pitot resistant to plugging. Thus, the [VAP/PA Pitot]( is perfect for installations in power plants, bag houses, or anywhere "dirty" air is standing between you and an accurate flow measurement.
