Quick Tips
Particle counts
Particle counts vary according to a number of factors such as location, time of year, and occupants. When taking par­ticle counts, always establish an outside baseline reading to compare indoor particle levels against. Ideally, indoor particle levels will be less then outdoor levels.
Filter bypass
When testing for filter bypass, take particle counts before and after sealing the edges of the filter with duct tape. This will provide an indication of how much particulate matter is bypassing the filter due to poor fitment or compromised sealing surfaces.

Summary of cleanroom classification standards
Cleanroom particle concentrations
The above table presents airborne particle limits for cleanroom applica­tions per Federal Std 209E and ISO 14644 standards. The number of particles per cubic meter represent the maximum concentration limits for par­ticles equal to and larger than the size
tested for. For example, an ISO class 5 cleanroom certified at 0.3 microns should have no more than 10,200 particles 0.3 microns and larger. There are other requirements regarding sample volumes, locations and proce­dures that must be adhered to. Refer to the applicable cleanroom standard for more information.

Growing your business through indoor air quality particulate profiling
You’ve probably heard mold referred to as the “new asbestos” for HVAC/R. Concern about mold and its health effects is driv­ing consumers to have their indoor air quality (IAQ) situation assessed and, if necessary, repaired.
If you’re the contractor they call, keep in mind that mold isn’t the only issue to consider when assess­ing the IAQ of a commercial building or residence. Many different kinds of particulates in a work or living environ­ment can cause Sick Building Syndrome and aggravate allergy and respiratory conditions.

Quick Tips
Frequent Calibration is Key
Frequent calibration of gas sensors is key to maintaining the accuracy and performance of the device. Both CO2 and CO sensors can exhibit tenden­cies to drift over time due to environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and pressure.
Fluke recommends monthly calibration of the CO sensor, and an annual calibration for CO2 for optimum performance.

Application Note
Measuring air velocity with the Fluke 975 AirMeter: Using the velocity probe
Fro m t h e F lu k e D ig i ta l L i br ar y @ w ww .f l uk e .c o m/ l ib ra r y
Air velocity is a key parameter in evaluating airflow sys­tem performance. As part of basic testing, adjusting and balancing of HVAC air distribution systems, most HVAC technicians now use an anemometer to mea­sure air velocity at grilles-registers-diffusers, within a duct, or in open spaces.
Anemometers are typically very accurate tools, especially at low velocities, but they must compensate for air temperature, absolute pressure, and ambient absolute pressure. The Fluke 975 AirMeter tool has an accessory velocity probe that uses a thermal anemom­eter to measure air velocity. A temperature sensor in the probe tip compensates for air temperature, a sen­sor in the meter reads absolute pressure, and ambient absolute pressure is determined upon meter initializa­tion. For users who prefer to calculate their own com­pensation factors, the meter will also display air velocity or volume at standard conditions.
This application note describes how to take accurate air volume measurements within a duct, air measure­ments at grilles-registers-diffusers, and other locations.
Air volumes within a duct
The ultimate goal of any duct system is to move the required air volume, while keeping all other factors within acceptable limits, and to deliver it in quanti­ties and patterns that serve the intended purpose: heating, cool­ing, ventilating, exhausting, mix­ing, humidifying, dehumidifying, or otherwise conditioning the air within a space. Velocity within a duct is determined not only by application, but also by how the duct is designed. Key design factors include: The level of available static pressure that can be overcome by the fan due to friction losses and pressure drops of devices within the air stream; the cost of duct work; the space available for duct work; and acceptable noise levels.
To determine the air volume delivered to all downstream ter­minal devices, technicians use a duct traverse. Duct traverses can determine air volume in any duct by multiplying average velocity readings by the inside area of the duct. Traverses in main ducts measure total system air volume, which is critical to HVAC system performance, efficiency, and even life expectancy. The difference in air volumes between the main supply duct traverse and the main return duct traverse results in outdoor air volume. A traverse in run-outs is the most accurate way to determine the air volume delivered by the terminal device (grille-register-diffuser). A tra­verse in exhaust ducts reveals exhaust air volume.

Making the numbers add up: Understanding specifications and performance of indoor air quality test instruments
Air quality test instruments must deliver accurate and verifiable per­formance, both to ensure precise and reliable air quality diagnosis, and to provide credible answers if results or procedures are challenged. The air quality profes­sional’s reputation depends on the quality and perfor­mance of the test tools in use, as well as on their understanding of instrument specifications, technologies, applications and maintenance.

Quick Tips
How HVAC airflow impacts operating costs
Dirty coils, fans, and filters will increase static pressure by reducing airflow, caus­ing HVAC equipment to work harder to meet occupant loads and increasing energy costs. With HVAC energy costs often comprising over 50 % of the total energy bill, tighter monitoring and control of HVAC airflow can have a direct impact on the bottom line.
In a study1 on coil clean-
ing and energy savings in a New York City high rise, pressure monitoring and visual inspection led to restoration of the coils and components. The restora­tion resulted in a 14 % decrease in pressure drop across the coils, a 25 % increase in the coil’s ther­mal efficiency, and energy savings of up to $40,000 in the first year.
EPA studies2 show that a 15
cfm airflow differential can impact annual HVAC energy costs by up to 8 % depend­ing upon the HVAC system and variations in climate.

CO levels Exposure
70 to 100 ppm
150 to 300 ppm
400 and higher ppm
Treatment options
Get victim to fresh air immediately.
If you can’t get victim out of the building open all windows and doors.
Take victim to a hospital emergency room for a carbon monoxide blood test.
symptoms
Flu or food poisoning like: Mild headaches Sore eyes Runny nose Mild nausea Shortness of breath
Dizziness Headaches Drowsiness Vomiting
Unconsciousness Brain damage Death
How many people are uninten­tionally poisoned by CO?
Every year, over 200 people in the United States die from CO produced by fuel-burning appliances (fur­naces, ranges, water heaters, room heaters). Others die from CO pro­duced while burning charcoal inside a home, garage, vehicle or tent. Still others die from CO produced by cars left running in attached garages. Several thousand people go to hos­pital emergency rooms for treatment for CO poisoning.
For more product information and detailed specications, go to www.uke.com
What is the permissible exposure to CO?
The current Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) permissible exposure limit (PEL) for carbon monoxide is 50 ppm over an 8-hour time period.

Quick Tips
Duct temperatures
Use the Fluke 971 and an infra­red thermometer to monitor duct temperatures at the register. Easily calculate dewpoint with the Fluke 971, then compare it to register temperatures to see if they fall below the dewpoint. Use an infrared thermometer in this application as a general indicator only. Many factors come into play when taking IR measurments, such as emissiv­ity and spot-to-distance ratio. Lower temperatures can lead to condensation forming on duct­work. If uninsulated, moisture can fall onto ceiling materials and cause potential mold issues and water damage.
