Airflow Measurements – 2.7
It is recommended that the inflow airflow be checked regularly, i.e. weekly or monthly
according to cabinet usage. A rotating vane type anemometer with a head diameter of about
100mm is considered satisfactory. On 1200mm wide cabinets, take 5 readings, namely one in
each corner and one in the centre on the work area aperture. Readings should be not less than
0.70m/sec or greater than 1.0m/sec. Readings above 1.0m/sec may cause problems with
containment, this may be checked by conducting a KI test.
Anemometer positions for the
1200, 1500 & 1800mm size of cabinets are illustrated below. The results should be recorded to
monitor cabinet performance over time.
