- Model-specific operating range documented by the manufacturer
- Configuration and power options must match the ordered system
Applications
Air-leakage assessment of ductwork during building-services verification.
Selection and project integration
Share the test specification, expected leakage range, enclosure or duct dimensions and local power supply with UDCT. Selection should establish the appropriate fan arrangement, measuring ranges, adapters, pressure gauge and software licence. Confirm which accessories are included with the ordered kit and which require separate selection.
Testing requires the correct calibration records, a suitable test setup and personnel familiar with the applicable procedure. Use the current manufacturer operating instructions and record the selected configuration in the test report. A quoted equipment range does not replace the conditions and limitations in the technical documentation.
