Optional DU159 Verification 

Plate shown.

Tape the optional flow

Verification Plate to the

Flange and attach the

red tube.

Attach the Flex Duct to the 

exhaust side of the fan

to pressurize the Flex Duct.

Stretch the Flex Duct to

it’s full length.

Set the DM-2 to measure

“Flow”  in “CFM @25 Pa”.

Adjust the speed until

“PrA” reads close to 25 Pa.

Read the Verification

Plate to determine the

acceptable range for flow.

 Typically, 100 to 110 CFM

 is a pass.

Check gauge operation and check for blocked, leaking or 

pinched tubes weekly, and anytime results are in question.

To perform the gauge check, you will need the gauge 

and Umbilical.

Press 

[Exit]

 

[Time Average]

 until “4s” appears.

Press 

[Mode] 

repeatedly

 

to display “PrB”.

Connect the yellow tube between the red and

yellow ports.

Repeat between different ports with each of the

tubes you use for testing.

Field check gauge weekly

If readings on “PrA” and “PrB” are within 2% and

don’t drop rapidly, the tube is not blocked or

leaking and the gauge is correct.

Checking your gauge 

and tubes regularly will 

eliminate a common 

source of error in 

readings.

Check the DucTester system monthly with a 

known setup―if flow is outside the acceptable 

range then system needs full calibration.
