Multifunctional Measurement in Ducts and At Outlets with Testo Measuring Instruments


Record multiple VAC parameters – not just flow velocity. 

With our multi function measuring instruments, you measure with the highest level of flexibility on air conditioning and ventilation systems. Because at Testo, you find the right probe for every measurement task. Use the maximum freedom of combination, and connect widely differing probes to your testo 480 or testo 435: e.g. thermal anemometers, vane anemometers or Pitot tubes. In addition to flow velocity, volume flow, temperature and humidity, with our multifunction instruments you can measure absolute and differential pressure, light intensity, radiated heat, degree of turbulence and CO2 concentration with a single instrument.


The testo 435-4 works efficiently and reliably, without needing any complicated prior programming:

• Fast duct measurement with at the touch of only one button
• Integrated differential pressure measurement for monitoring filters or for flow velocity measurement with a Pitot tube
• Flexibility thanks to wireless probes for temperature and humidity
• Includes PC software for analyzing and documenting the readings

Combine the testo 435-4 with these probes:
With 890 mm telescope, also suitable for measurements on larger ventilation ducts. Automatic calculation of volume flow.

Precise measurement at outlets with Testo measuring instruments



Testo measurement technology provides reliable results even at swirl outlets.

The quality of the indoor air depends crucially on whether the air input or output volume flows are optimally adjusted. For this reason, the measurement is taken directly at the outlet during adjustment work. However, inaccessible ventilation ducts also make measurements at outlets necessary.

At swirl and plate outlets or ventilation grilles however, turbulence is created, which can falsify the measurement results.

In order to be able to measure these non-uniform flow profiles, it is essential that a funnel measuring instrument with a flow straightener is used. Patented volume flow straighteners from Testo guarantee the greatest level of accuracy, even in strong air turbulence.

Accurate and convenient measurement in ducts with Testo measuring instruments


The easy way to optimum measurement results in all flow velocity ranges.

In order for air conditioning and ventilation systems to run smoothly and efficiently, the flow velocity in the ventilation duct must be regularly checked. Only when the flows in the duct correspond to the requirement are the room loads (heat, cold and substance load) reliably transported away – and the indoor air quality is right.

If the ventilation duct is accessible, duct measurement is then the best solution. This is because air flows are measured most accurately directly in the duct. However, it must be taken into account that the flows in the duct are usually non-homogenous and turbulent.

In order to obtain reliable results in spite of this, measurements should always be taken at several points over the duct cross-section. In these grid measurements, the mean flow velocity is calculated from the individual measurement values.

Ventilation measuring instruments from Testo support you in grid measurement just as reliably as in the automatic calculation of volume flow.

Which instrument suits your application depends on the flow velocity range you wish to measure.

All flow velocities under control with Testo measuring instruments




 Ventilation and air conditioning measuring instruments from Testo. All outlets, All flow velocities - One expert.
Test air conditioning and ventilation systems – in ducts, at outlets, and with multifunction instruments.

The correct and efficient adjustment of ventilation and air conditioning systems makes very high demands of measurement technology, due to the various measurement locations and the differing flow velocities. 

Whether the precise determination of volume flow, quick spot measurements in ducts or the recording of turbulent flows at outlets: without suitable measuring instruments, it is impossible to ensure optimum indoor air in residential and non-residential buildings.

The most accurate measurement results can be achieved by measuring directly in a duct. However, since ventilation ducts are in practice frequently hidden or inaccessible, it is often necessary to resort to outlet measurements. In addition to this, turbulence in ducts and at outlets can often falsify measurements. 

As you can see, carrying out precise flow velocity measurements is not easy. For this reason, Testo offers the optimum solution for every measurement task and measurement range: thermal probes, vane anemometers, differential pressure measuring instruments, funnel measuring instruments and multifunction measuring instruments. With the patented flow straighteners from Testo, even turbulent flows can be measured accurately. Here you can find information on how to measure flow velocity more efficiently. 

Innovative App solutions
Writing mails, checking the weather, planning routes: Many things are easier with a smartphone. With our free Apps for the volume flow measurement hood testo 420, and the Testo Smart Probes, ventilation measurement is now also more convenient and less stressful.
• Measurement site-independent operation: Your smartphone becomes the remote control • Convenient measurement value display: Readings are always available when you need them • Clever documentation: Create protocols and reports easily, and send them immediately by e-mail
Patented flow straightener technology
The correct recording of volume flow at ventilation and swirl outlets is often hampered by turbulence. In order for you to be able to obtain precise results even in turbulent flows, Testo has developed patented flow straighteners for testo 417 and testo 420. The flow straighteners convert turbulent air into an almost uniform flow, which can then be reliably recorded with the measuring instrument. This reduces measurement inaccuracies at swirl outlets and in turbulent air by up to 50 %. 
Fast worldwide calibration service
For us, measurement precision does not stop at the delivery of the instruments. Regular calibration is indispensable for constant, reliable results. This is why our subsidiary, Testo Industrial Services (TIS) has a worldwide network of their own calibration laboratories. This allows you quick access to our accredited calibration services – so you can continue to work efficiently.
