Certified ratings provide assurance to the buyer, user, and specifier that the manufacturer's published performance ratings for airflow measurement stations are repeatable; information on how the product was tested; what appurtenances (accessories or optional equipment) were accounted for in the ratings; and other pertinent information.
The AMCA 611-10 program applies to products or systems that output either analog electronic (E) or non-electronic (NE) signals. A non-electronic output is considered analog differential pressure, which requires additional hardware to convert differential pressure to an electronic signal.
