Fan Inlet Airflow Measuring System
A fan inlet airflow measuring system (piezometer) is
available on many centrifugal and plenum fans. Trane’s
system determines airflow using a static pressure
differential.
Note: This type of system is different than a total pressure
or thermal dispersion system. As such, the
calculations will be different.
Each system comes with a differential pressure
transmitter. The minimum diameter is connected to the LO
port of the transmitter and the reference pressure point is
connected to (or actually is) the HI port of the transmitter.

Trane utilizes AMCA certification for airflow measuring stations. Trane certifies that the Traq damper herein is licensed to bear the
AMCA seal. The ratings shown are based on tests and procedures performed in accordance with AMCA Publication 611 and comply
with the requirements of the AMCA Certified Ratings Program.
The certification program provides the engineer and owner assurance that manufacturer-published performance ratings for
airflow measurement stations are accurate and repeatable. Trane Traq dampers are certified with the integral ventilation control
module which converts differential pressure to an electronic signal for control.
Refer to Performance Climate Changer Air Handler catalog CLCH-PRC015-EN for Traq damper testing and rating information.
