APPLYING FILTER PRESSURE DROP TO
DETERMINE SYSTEM AIRFLOW
To determine the approximate airflow of the unit with a filter in place, fol-
low the steps below:
1.
Select the filter type.
2.
Determine the External System Static Pressure (ESP) without the
filter.
3.
Select a filter pressure drop from the table based upon the number
of return air openings or return air opening size and add to the
ESP from Step 2 to determine the total system static.
4.
If total system static matches a ESP value in the airflow table (i.e.
0.20, 0.60, etc,) the system airflow corresponds to the intersection
of the ESP column and Model/Blower Speed row.
5.
If the total system static falls between ESP values in the table (i.e.
0.58, 0.75, etc.), the static pressure may be rounded to the nearest
value in the table determining the airflow using Step 4 or calculate
the airflow by using the following example.
Example:
For a 120,000 Btuh furnace operating on high speed blower,
it is found that total system static is 0.58" w.c. To determine the system
airflow, complete the following steps:
1.
Obtain the airflow values at 0.50" & 0.60" ESP.
Airflow @ 0.50": 2152 CFM
Airflow @ 0.60": 2042 CFM
2.
Subtract the airflow @ 0.50" from the airflow @ 0.60" to obtain air-
flow difference.
2042 - 2152 = -110 CFM
3.
Subtract the total system static from 0.50" and divide this differ-
ence by the difference in ESP values in the table, 0.60" - 0.50", to
obtain a percentage.
(0.58 - 0.50) / (0.60 - 0.50) = 0.8
4.
Multiply percentage by airflow difference to obtain airflow reduc-
tion.
(0.8) x (-110) = -88
5.
Subract airflow reduction value to airflow @ 0.50" to obtain actual
airflow @ 0.58" ESP.
2152 - 88 = 2064
