How does the Kestrel CFM function work?
To measure volume airflow (CFM), simply select the duct shape that you will be measuring – either circular or rectangular – then enter the duct size, and hold the Kestrel into the air flow. Readings are automatically calculated and displayed on the screen in either cfm, m3/h, m3/m, m3/s or L/s. The Kestrel also features an averaging function that allows users to measure the air flow for a duct where the flow is variable. The user simply selects the averaging mode and traces the duct. It also has a hold feature if you need to take a measurement inside a duct that you can’t see – just “hold” the value and it will be frozen on the screen until you can look at it. The Kestrel has an easy-to-read screen with step-by-step instructions on it to, making it extremely simple to use.
