TOTAL EXTERNAL STATIC
S-203A TWO PIECE AIR HANDLER EXTERNAL STATIC
To determine proper airow, proceed as follows:
1. Using a Inclined Manometer or Magnehelic gauge, measure
the stac pressure between the outlet of the evaporator
coil and the inlet of the air handler, this will be a negave
pressure ( for example -.30”wc)
2. Measure the stac pressure of the supply duct at the outlet
of the unit, this should be a posive pressure (for example
.20”wc).
3. Add the two readings together (for example -.30”wc +
.20”wc = .50”wc total stac pressure.
NOTE: Both readings may be taken simultaneously and read
directly on the manometer if so desired.
4. Consult proper air handler airow chart for quanty of air
(CFM) at the measured external stac pressure.

TOTAL EXTERNAL STATIC
S-204 COIL STATIC PRESSURE DROP
1. Using a dra gauge (inclined manometer), connect the posi-
ve probe underneath the coil and the negave probe above
the coil.
2. A direct reading can be taken of the stac pressure drop
across the coil.
3. Consult proper table for quanty of air.
STATIC PRESSURE DROP
If the total external stac pressure and/or stac pressure drop
exceeds the maximum or minimum allowable stacs, check for
closed dampers, dirty lters, undersized or poorly laid out duct
work.
