FlowFinder - mechanical ventilation system measurement

The FlowFinder®mk2 is the successor of the well known FlowFinder®, the benchmark of air flow measurement for balancing mechanical air supply and exhaust systems.

The new VentiFlow-mk2, with a measuring range from 10 to 100 m3/h (6 to 60 CFM), is the ideal instrument to quickly check and balance delicate domestic ventilation systems.

FlowFinder-mk2 Air Flow Balometer

The FlowFinder®mk2 is designed for accurate air flow measurements to balance and commission mechanical ventilation systems. The measuring principle of the FlowFinder®mk2 is based on the zero pressure compensation method.

Accurately measure air volume flow up to 100 m3/h

The FlowFinder®mk2 is designed for accurate air flow measurements to balance and commission mechanical ventilation systems. The measuring principle of the FlowFinder®mk2 is based on the zero pressure compensation method (unconditional method). With this method the resistance of the measuring instrument is compensated for by means of a controlled fan.

What is the FlowFinder-mk2?

The FlowFinder®mk2 is designed for accurate air flow measurements to balance and commission mechanical ventilation systems. The measuring principle of the FlowFinder®mk2 is based on the zero pressure compensation method. With this method the resistance of the measuring instrument is compensated for by means of a controlled fan.

Research has proven the zero pressure compensation method to be the most accurate way of measuring air flows of supply and exhaust ornaments of various shapes and sizes.

Why measure ventilation flow rates?

Ventilation is the process of removing stale polluted indoor air and replacing it with fresh air from outside. Ensuring that the ventilation system in a home is working as expected is incredibly important in any building and is included in Part F of the building regulations.

Commissioning

Requirement F1(2) of the Building Regulations (Section 4 of Part F) stipulates that all fixed mechanical ventilation systems must be commissioned by testing.

Balancing

Continuous ventilation systems should be adjusted and balanced to ensure the designed air flow rates are being met in each room.

Adjustments

When commissioning a system all ventilation supply and extract points should be tested and adjusted to confirm that the system is performing as intended.

System efficiency

A well-functioning ventilation system is vital to removing air pollutants such as CO₂ and particulates as well as moisture and bacteria.

Who is the FlowFinder-mk2 designed for?

The FlowFinder-mk2 is ideal for anyone involved in ventilation testing.
