3.6. Configure the probes, boards and normative values
This part allows to set the following parameters :
• for an air velocity and airflow probe : (hotwire or vane) : the type of section, the correction factor, the in air
velocity and the compensation in atmospheric pressure (only available for hotwire probes)
• For a pressure board : air velocity and airflow (if the option is activated), the integration in pressure, the purge
mode and autozero duration.
• For a CO
2
probe : the compensation in atmospheric pressure,
• For an hygro/temperature probe : the compensation in atmospheric pressure for the psychrometry calculations.
3.6.1 Configure an air velocity and airflow probe
An air velocity/airflow probe must be connected.
Select the type of section :
➢ Press OK.
➢ Enter the security code then press OK.
➢ Go to the “Parameters” line then press OK.
➢ Go to “Probe 1” or “Probe 2” line (according to the channel of the air velocity/airflow probe) then press OK.
➢ Go to “Type of section” line then press OK.
For a rectangular section :
➢ Select “Rectangular” with Up and Down keys then press OK.
The transmitter displays the necessary settings to perform for a rectangular section.
➢ Press OK on “Unit” line then select “mm” or “inch” whith Up and Down keys.
➢ Press OK.
➢ Go to “Length” line then press OK.
➢ Use Up/Down/Left/Right arrows to enter the length of the section then press OK.
➢ Go to “Width” line then press OK.
➢ Use Up/Down/Left/Right arrows to enter the width of the section then press OK.
Length and width of the section must be between 1 and 3000 mm.
For a circular section :
➢ Select “Circular” with Up and Down arrows then press OK.
The transmitter displays the necessary settings to perform for a circular section.
➢ Press OK on “Unit” line then select “mm” or “inch” with Up and Down keys.
➢ Press OK.
➢ Go to “Diameter” line then press OK.
➢ Use Up/Down/Left/Right arrows to enter the diameter of the section then press OK.
The diameter of the section must be between 1 and 3000 mm.
Enter a correction factor : this correction coefficient allows to adjust the transmitter according to data in air velocity of the
installation.
How to calculate it ? For example, the air velocity in your section is 17 m/s and the transmitter displays 16.6 m/s. The
coefficient to apply is 17 / 16,6 it means 1.024.
➢ Press OK.
➢ Enter the security code then press OK.
➢ Go to “Parameters” line then press OK.
