Accuracy in Tight Spaces
We’ve just dropped our new 1-minute animated video on YouTube about accurate airflow measurement in tight duct runs. It covers the challenges in straight run requirements for common airflow measurement devices.
In many real-world ducts for industrial processes, you simply do not have the luxury of long, straight runs before and after your flow sensor. That doesn’t mean you have to settle for poor accuracy in tight spaces. Air Monitor’s new animated video shows how our engineered airflow solutions deliver reliable measurements in short duct runs.
Why Straight Run Still Matters
Flow disturbances from elbows, fittings, and fans create swirl and non-uniform velocity profiles that can lead to significant accuracy errors. If you rely on single-point sensing or basic differential pressure devices, long straight duct runs are required to maintain accuracy. In the video, see how multi-point self-averaging pitot technology and application-specific airflow stations overcome these challenges and restore confidence in your readings.
What You’ll Learn in the Video
Air Monitor’s flow stations measure flow across the duct and deliver stable, repeatable flow data — even when straight duct runs are short. This approach helps engineers and facility teams maintain proper airflow for better process performance without major ducting rework.
Watch the Video and Take the Next Step
If you’re wrestling with short duct runs, fan discharges, or crowded mechanical rooms, your device accuracy will be affected.
