Summary of Technical Data
Section: Airflow and Pressure Drop Data
The document presents a table correlating airflow rates measured in Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) with corresponding pressure drops measured in inches of Water Gauge (WG). The data points are as follows:
- At 140 CFM, the pressure drop is 0 inches WG.
- At 280 CFM, the pressure drop is 3.2 inches WG.
- At 420 CFM, the pressure drop is 4.8 inches WG.
- At 560 CFM, the pressure drop is 6.4 inches WG.
- At 700 CFM, the pressure drop is 8.0 inches WG.
- Additional values include 9.6 and 11.2 inches WG, though corresponding CFM values are not explicitly stated.
This data likely serves to characterize the performance of a ventilation or filtration system, indicating how pressure drop increases with airflow rate. Such information is critical for system design, ensuring that components can handle expected airflow without excessive pressure loss.
Key Points:
- Pressure drop increases approximately linearly with airflow rate.
- Data can be used to select appropriate equipment specifications.
- Understanding these parameters helps optimize system efficiency and reliability.
