SERIES SAH | SMART AIR HOOD® BALANCING INSTRUMENT
FEATURES/BENEFITS
• QUAD FLOW DESIGN TECHNOLOGY
A patent pending design based on controlling the circulating air patterns providing a more even air ow with minimal backpressure effects.
The design result is an accuracy of 3% or better regardless of diffuser types, based on any diffuser in the Dwyer PredictAir™ application
software.
• PREDICTIVE BALANCING
An industry rst for airow balancing, this patent pending process guides the balancing technician on setting the proper air ow values for
each diffuser to fully optimize the HVAC system. No more guess work as Predictive Balancing provides the optimal ow set point for each
sequential terminal. The PredictAir™ application software completes the balancing process in much less time than traditional balancing
methods.
• ERGONOMIC DESIGN
Made from a rugged lightweight polymer construction; it is the smallest, lightest and most aerodynamic design in the industry, weighing
less than 6 pounds and 1/4 the height of other bulky air hoods. The Series SAH mounts to an extendable pole for easy use and
maneuverability resulting in less muscle strain compared to other air balancing equipment. Balancing can be completed by just one
technician.
• MOBILE SPEED
With the digital handheld test instrument and software, featuring Wi-Fi direct wireless communications and a range of up to 200 yards
(183 m), the testing, adjusting and balancing process is faster and more accurate than any other air ow hood on the market today.
• LOWEST TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP
Fast, accurate and easy; a better way to air balance saving time and money. The Series SAH features a rechargeable lithium battery
backed up by four AA batteries. For annual calibration, simply detach the removable quad ow sensing grids and sensor module and
return without the hood for calibration. To ensure no downtime, simply snap on another calibrated set quad ow sensing grids and sensor
module.
DESCRIPTIONAPPLICATIONS
• Measuring volumetric air ow from diffusers, grilles and registers in
HVAC systems for commercial buildings.
The Series SAH SMART Air Hood® Balancing Instrument is a
revolutionary air ow hood, made with rugged polymer construction
that represents the smallest and most aerodynamic design in the
industry. The patent pending Quad Flow Design Technology is based on
controlling air ow and minimizing back pressure which yields superior
measurement accuracy. Featuring Wi-Fi direct communication, with a
range of up to 200 yards (183 m) between the hood and a handheld test
instrument, the user interface, mobility, data storage and transmission
has never been better. The Series SAH includes Predictive Balancing,
an industry rst for air ow balancing. Predictive Balancing is a method of
projecting the optimal ow set point for each diffuser while balancing the
HVAC system. The handheld PredictAir™ application software includes
algorithms enabling Predictive Balancing to achieve best in class
accuracy. Balancing can be done with just one technician.
