Original Press Release:
REAFFIRMED - AMCA International Publication AMCA 600-06, (R2010) "Application Manual for Airflow Measurement Stations"
Arlington Heights, IL USA-The Air Movement and Control Association International, Inc. (AMCA) International has reaffirmed - AMCA 600-06 an Application Manual for Airflow Measurement Stations, providing information and important points to be considered when designing or specifying heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) and other applications in installations requiring airflow measurement stations (AMS) for use in temperatures from -30°C to +120°C (-20°F to +250°F), pressures to 250 Pa (10 in. wg) and velocities to 28 m/s (5500 fpm).
The AMCA 600-06 application manual is intended to assist designers and users with proper application, performance considerations, selection, and limitations of airflow measurement stations. This guide provides an overview of permanently installed airflow measurement stations and their application, such information not being readily available in current texts on HVAC or ventilation system design; helping to avoid typical problems, including, incorrect location, inappropriate measurement range, mismatched accompanying instrumentation, AMS incompatible with intended application, and the like.
