The wide range of electronic instruments for the measurement of Indoor Air Quality available on the market reflects the many requirements in this
area. Numerous parameters such as temperature, humidity, pressure or CO2 must
be recorded, analyzed and documented. The professional groups carrying out
measurements in the field of air conditioning and ventilation are equally
varied: from contractors to plumbing, heating and air conditioning experts or
plant constructors, up to expert appraisers or assessors. However,these users
often apply only measuring instruments which
are able to record one or two parameters belonging to their main activities.
Yet especially those instruments which can measure almost all IAQ parameters
support the efficient processing and management of the corresponding data. They
would considerably facilitate work for all professional groups in air
conditioning and ventilation technology.
The challenge
A plumbing, heating and air conditioning expert uses an infrared temperature measurement to check insulation work on a heating system.
Complex documentation is not necessary, so that as a rule, an entry instrument
is sufficient. However, as soon as commisioning, installation, inspection or
maintenance of ventilation and air conditioning systems (VAC) is necessary,
more complex measurements are often required. For example, if there is a lack
of well-being in open-plan offices, it becomes necessary to analyze draughts,
uncomfortable temperatures or fatigue due to high CO2 concentrations. Such
measurements can take several hours or days, and cannot be managed with an
entry instrument. It is recommended in such cases that professional measurement
technology is used, which is able not only to measure many different
parameters, but also to analyze and correspondingly document them for the
customer.
The solution
Modern measuring instruments such as the VAC measuring instrument testo 480 have a high level of convenience for the
user, as well as efficient analysis, processing and management of large
quantities of data using PC software. They support the customer with integrated
measurement programs which allow fast and standardized measurement. What makes
them special is the large selection of digital probes which provide
considerable advantages. On the one hand they appreciably extend the area of
activity of the user. There is hardly an IAQ measurement which cannot be
conducted. On the other hand, the probes produce a digital signal which is
transferred to the measuring instrument completely without any loss of
information, and free of error. The technical measurement intelligence is thus
in the probe itself. This means it can be calibrated even without using a
portable instrument, avoiding downtime costs and substantially simplifying the
entire calibration process. testo 480 with its probes fulfils numerous standards
such as grid measurement of a VAC system according to EN 12599. The technician
is prepared for everything, works quickly, obtains error-free measurement
results and can present them to his customer directly on site. The customer can
be certain that the technician conducts all relevant measurements and can
adjust the VAC system according to the standards. And not only that, people
have a greater sense of well-being, and it has been proven that they perform
better at the workplace when the indoor climate is right. In addition to this,
an efficiently adjusted system can avoid high energy costs. That saves the
customer money.
