CFM AIR FLOW METER

A. MEASURING AIR VELOCITY (SINGLE POINT) FEET PER MINUTE (FPM)

1. Press the ON/OFF button and turn meter on. Meter will show full display when first
powered on.

2. Unit is ready for use when LCD display shows “vel” at upper left corner and temperature
at lower right corner.

B. CONTINUOUS MOVING AVERAGE

The meters displays continuous moving average for up to two (2) hours

1. Power the unit on.

4. Repeat this process until all desired points have been measured and recorded. A maxi­mum of 8 points may be recorded at one time.

5. Once all measurements have been recorded press AVERAGE key, The unit will display the
average air velocity reading and the number of points measured.

E. NON-SLEEP MODE - (BYPASS AUTO POWER OFF)

1. Power unit off
