Celsicom V600 is a new balancing instrument that helps you set up ventilation quickly and easily. The secret? The combination of a connected, wireless measuring instrument and updated air values – on a regular smartphone or tablet. Read our step-by-step guide for super-efficient ventilation balancing.
Setting up ventilation is important both for ensuring a good indoor climate and keeping operational costs down. But as many of us know, it’s often a time-consuming process. Especially when it involves large systems where several technicians often need to help measure airflow and pressure multiple times at different locations in the buildings to achieve optimal ventilation balancing.
Thanks to Celsicom V600 these problems are a thing of the past. In fact, a ventilation technician can now perform large balancing tasks entirely on their own with the help of the measuring instrument.
Ventilation Balancing with Celsicom V600
All you need to set airflow in a system is our new balancing instrument, a flow meter of your choice, and a smartphone or tablet. Here’s our step-by-step guide for setting up ventilation with Celsicom V600:
- Remove the slide cover from Celsicom V600 and scan the QR code inside with your mobile/tablet.
- Create an account on the Celsiview cloud service website that appears on the screen.
- Add Celsicom V600 and select the instrument for your measurement.
- Identify the weakest point of the ventilation system, i.e., your reference outlet.
- Enter the K-factor and the projected value for the reference outlet and the remaining outlets.
- Connect the balancing instrument to the reference outlet and start the measurement.
- Celsicom V600 will guide you through the entire balancing process according to the proportionality principle.
- The current balancing values for each outlet will appear on your mobile/tablet.
- If a pressure change occurs in the system, new values are calculated – instantly!
- Finally: Raise or lower the reference outlet to 100 percent (according to the projected value), and the values for the other outlets are automatically adjusted.
“No need to go back and recheck”
This is how ventilation balancing works with Celsicom V600. One of the people who has discovered the benefits of the new balancing instrument is ventilation technician Tor Halvorsen at VXPro AB. Tor has used the instrument for several large balancing projects and believes it makes his job easier and improves it in several ways.
– I no longer have to spend time doing my own calculations, nor do I need to go back and recheck the reference damper. Previously, it often took at least three rounds to get all values right. Now, I get it right immediately, says Tor, adding that the Celsicom instrument makes him more efficient.
– It saves at least a third of the time. Up to half in some cases. Depending on accessibility and system complexity.
Impressively precise balancing
In addition to the time savings, Celsicom V600 and Celsiview allow Tor to perform large balancing tasks with impressive precision. The required six percent accuracy in balancing between outlets is often exceeded by far.
– I often get down to three percent accuracy, which everyone benefits from. Tenants get a comfortable indoor climate, and property owners lower energy consumption, says Tor Halvorsen, who sees how the smart measuring instrument allows him to “do more in less time.”
– This is a perfect solution that gives me greater capacity every day of the week!
