AIR MEASURING DEVICE
CONNECTIONS
Air Measuring at the Fan Inlets
• COMETER is a probe attached to the fan bearing
support on Comefri Forward Curve fans from size
7 x 7 up to 18 x 18. The probe is located on the
outboard side of the housed fan assembly. The
probe is piped to the negative (-) port of a factory
mounted transducer on the fan wall. The posi-
tive (+) port is left open to the fan section. Wiring
is not provided to the transducer unless factory
packaged controls were selected.
• PIEZORING (PIEZOMETER) is a fitting or series
of fittings in the inlet cone(s) of housed fans larger
than 18 x 18 and all sizes of Plenum fans that are
combined into a single connection piped to the
negative (-) port of a factory mounted transducer
on the fan wall. The positive (+) port is left open
to the fan section. Wiring is not provided to the
transducer unless factory packaged controls were
selected.
The fan manufacturer does not recom-
mend placement of the flow measuring
probes inside the fan inlet cone in the
path of airflow. These devices create
disturbances and unpredictable perfor-
mance losses.
