Alternate Procedure:
The alternative procedure to determine inflow velocity uses a thermo anemometer in a constricted window access
opening of 3 inches (76mm) with the armrest removed. Inflow air velocity is measured in the center of the constricted
opening 1-1/2 inches (38mm) above the work access opening on the following specified grid. Use the correction factor
table to calculate the inflow velocity.
