Duct Air Leak Tester

Ductwork leakage testers the tsi positive and negative duct accreditation panda system pan200 series is designed to provide fast accurate duct leakage detection as well as duct performance measurements.

Duct air leak tester.

Kanomax has developed the most advanced duct air leakage tester dalt for commercial duct systems. 1 blower with speed control vfd to generate range of pressure flowrange of pressure flow 2 flow measuring devices flow grid flow station high flow flow grid flow station high flow orifice plate low flow. Though built tough with an on board powerful motor the dalt 6900 is very easy to transport on its pneumatic tires and leaves little to no. En 1507 ventilation for buildings sheet metal air ducts with rectangular section requirements for strength and leakage.

You can also try running your hand under other parts of your ductwork to feel for larger leaks. The alf150 2019 model duct leakage tester now comes with automatic closed loop testing as standard allowing you to run leakage tests automatically to set duct static pressures. Our duct leakage testers are compliant with the following standards. It s also now equipped with bluetooth as standard for use with bluetooth enabled thermal printers.

25 pa across the system including. Mark any leaks you find with a grease pencil. The alf150 has been given a make over for 2019. If you place your hand near these joints and you feel air coming out you know that there s a leak.

En 12237 ventilation for buildings ductwork strength and leakage of circular sheet metal ducts. The instrument provides step by step test configuration and automated leakage testing based on the smacna hvac air duct leakage test manual and is accurate to 2 5 of reading. The spots where two air ducts connect are common places for leaks to occur. Figure 5 1l from the 2012 smacna hvac air duct leakage test manual shows the allowable leakage as a function of duct leakage classification and static pressure in the duct.

Total leakage measured with a pressure differential of 0 1 inch w g. The above test procedure describes how to determine total duct leakage or how much leakage there is. Another form of duct leakage to outside uses a blower door to measure the total amount of. A third test method.

Ducts shall be pressure tested to determine air leakage by either of the following. Leakage class can be calculated using equation 3 but needs to be specified if duct air leakage tests are required. It s designed to be simple to use accurate and extremely convenient.
