APPLYING FILTER PRESSURE DROP TO DETERMINE SYSTEM AIRFLOW

To determine the approximate airflow of the unit with a filter in place, follow the steps below:

1.Select the filter type.

2.Select the number of return air openings or calculate the return opening size in square inches to determine the proper filter pressure drop.

3.Determine the External System Static Pressure (ESP) without the filter.

4.Select a filter pressure drop from the table based upon the number of return air openings or return air opening size and add to the ESP from Step 3 to determine the total system static.

5.If total system static matches a ESP value in the airflow table (i.e. 0.20 w.c. (50 Pa), 0.60 w.c. (150 Pa), etc,) the system airflow corresponds to the intersection of the ESP column and Model/Blower Speed row.

6.If the total system static falls between ESP values in the table (i.e. 0.58 w.c. (144 Pa), 0.75 w.c. (187 Pa), etc.), the static pressure may be rounded to the nearest value in the table determining the airflow using Step 5 or calcu- late the airflow by using the following example.

Example: For a 60,000 BTUH (17.58 kW) furnace with a bot- tom return opening and operating on high-speed blower, it is found that total system static is 0.58” w.c. To determine the system airflow, complete the following steps:

Obtain the airflow values at 0.50 w.c. (125 Pa) & 0.60 w.c. (150 Pa) ESP.

Airflow @ 0.50”: 1250 CFM (35.4 m3/min)

Airflow @ 0.60”: 1180 CFM (33.4 m3/min)

Subtract the airflow @ 0.50 w.c. (125 Pa) from the airflow @ 0.60 w.c. (150 Pa) to obtain airflow difference.

1180 - 1250 = -70 CFM (-12 m3/min)

Subtract the total system static from 0.50 w.c. (125 Pa) and divide this difference by the difference in ESP values in the

table, 0.60 w.c.

(150 Pa) - 0.50 w.c. (125 Pa), to obtain a

percentage.

 

(0.58 - 0.50) / (0.60 - 0.50) = 0.8

Multiply percentage by airflow difference to obtain airflow reduction.

(0.8) X (-70) = -56

Subtract airflow reduction value to airflow @ 0.50 w.c. (125 Pa) to obtain actual airflow @ 0.58 in. w.c. (144 Pa) ESP.

1250 - 56 = 1194
