Pressure/Air Handler Flow Mode
If Using a Duct Blaster Fan (Pressure Matching Method)
-
Turn on the air handler. Now turn on and adjust the Duct
Blaster fan (along with the air handler fan) so that the
TFSOP
reading on
Channel A
is close (within 5 Pa) to the
NSOP
reading entered into the gauge in
Step 1
. There is
no need to exactly match the
NSOP
and
TFSOP
pressures,
because the gauge is making an adjustment to the measured
Duct Blaster fan flow using a flow resistance correction factor calculated from the
NSOP
and
TFSOP
pressure
readings. If the readings are fluctuating, change the time averaging setting to
5 second
,
10 second
,
or long-term
average
using the
TIME AVG
button.
Note:
If you are unable to get the
TFSOP
to within 5 Pascals of the
NSOP
reading, the gauge will continue to
display an adjusted air handler flow rate using the calculated flow resistance correction factor. The greater the
difference between the
NSOP
and
TFSOP
readings, the higher the probability that the flow resistance
correction factor will introduce errors into the flow estimate.
5.8 Flow Resistance Correction Factors Used in the DG-700
