Testo Air Flow Velocity Matrix Instruction Manual

The document describes an air flow velocity matrix that can be used with a telescope and differential pressure measuring instrument to measure air flow velocity at large supply air diffusers. The matrix covers an area of approximately 360x360mm and connects to the instrument with hoses. Air flow velocity is calculated from dynamic pressure measurements using the matrix's offset factor of 0.82. To take a measurement, the matrix is held near the air outlet while the instrument records differential pressure readings.

Application
The air flow velocity matrix 8721 0025 can be used in conjunction
with a differential pressure measuring instrument to measure the air
flow velocity at large supply air diffusers with laminar flow, e.g.
extractor hoods, HEPA filters, safety cabinets in cleanrooms and
other applications.

Calculating the flow velocity
The flow velocity is calculated by differential pressure measuring
instruments with an input facility for the Pitot tube factor (0.82) as
follows:

2 𝑥𝑥 𝑃𝑃𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑
𝑉𝑉 = 𝑆𝑆𝑆𝑆 �
𝑟𝑟ℎ𝑜𝑜

S: Pitot tube factor


Pdyn: Dynamic pressure (Pa)
rho: Density (kg/m3)

Carrying out a measurement


1. Connect the supplied connection hoses to the differential
pressure cross.
2. Use the Velcro fastener to fasten the hoses to the telescopic
rod.
Do not attach the Velcro fastener to the tripod too tightly. This prevents
any kinking and/or stresses in the hose when pulling out or pushing in
the telescopic rod.
3. Connect the hose ends to a differential pressure measuring
instrument. (Testo recommends the testo 420 differential
pressure measuring instrument, measuring range 0.2 to 14 m/s)
> Make sure that the hoses are connected correctly.
4. Hold the air flow velocity matrix at a distance of approx. 5 cm to
the air outlet. Ensure that the matrix is exposed to the flow
across its entire area.
For the Pitot tube factor setting, please refer to the instruction manual
of the measuring instrument used.
> Start measurement.
