Aircone hoods are the quick and accurate method to maximise the usefulness of your Airflow™ 100mm (4") rotating vane anemometer, such as the LCA, DVA, AV2, AV6, and EDRA models.

For a very modest investment, you can double the capability of your velocity instrument into an air flow meter as well.

Commissioning and balancing of air volume flow is immediately possible at grilles, diffusers, air valves and linears. The hoods are equally suitable for measuring ventilation flow rates for both extract and supply air.

Manufactured in hard wear ABS for the rigours of on-site use. All sizes are extremely lightweight allowing one man operation for long periods and one handed testing up ladders etc. when used with appropriate anemometer.

The rectangular and round aircones are supplied in a protective carry-case with durable 'wipe clean' encapsulated flow curves for the fast conversion of meter readings into actual volume flow.

The square hood quickly unsnaps into two halves for compactness and easea of use on site.

Using the Aircone is simplicity itself. Just clip your 100mm (4") rotating vane into the collar of the hood with the sensor pointed into the direction of flow, i.e. for extract or supply.
Fit the hood over the inlet/outlet to be balanced and hold in place so that the flange creates a seal with the overall dimensions of the grille or diffuser under test.

Where grilles are larger than the size of the hood it is suggested that the area is divided into equal areas, avoiding overlapping where possible, then a series of readings are taken, adding together and averaged to calculate total volume flow.

THE AIRCONE FLOW HOOD ADVANTAGES

FEATURES

• Aerodynamic design for minimal resistance.
• Direct reading of volume flow rate with instruments having area input facility.
• Volume flow curves in m³/sec and cfm for velocity measuring instruments.
• Self sealing for leak tight readings.
• Three sizes allow multiple coverage of larger grilles.
• Tough ABS to take knocks on-site.
• Compact 'snap fit' square hood
• Compatible with all Airflow Developements ™ 100mm (diameter) vanes.

BENEFITS

• Converts 100mm vane anemometer into flow meter.
• Inexpensive commissioning.
• Saves you money - one man operation.
• Proportional balancing made really easy.
• Suitable for extract and supply.
• Carry case (round and rectangular hoods).

APPLICATIONS

• HVAC grilles, diffusers, linears, air valves.
• Commissioning and testing engineers.
• Containment area checks, safety cabinets
• Health and Safety, COSSH, environmental balancing.
• Fan inlets/outlets, VAV systems, filter conditions, dampers.
• Leakage checks.
