Ventilation Test instruments

Ventilation is central to R&D performance. Whether you are validating a new lab layout, characterizing airflow in a test rig, or studying the impact of ventilation on thermal or contaminant transport, the quality of your data shapes the quality of your outcomes. TSI ventilation instruments are developed to help research teams generate reliable, repeatable measurements that support experimental confidence and program agility.

Our portfolio spans capture hoods for volumetric flow, micromanometers for differential pressure, handheld and fixed air velocity instruments, multi-function anemometers, and duct leakage testers. Together, these tools help you quantify supply, return, and exhaust performance; verify pressure cascades; evaluate fume hood face velocity; and map velocity fields in chambers and ducts. High-resolution sensing and stable electronics support low-flow sensitivity and wide dynamic ranges — critical for experiments that move from benchtop to pilot scale.

Built-in data logging and flexible export enable rapid documentation and collaboration. Researchers can capture time-stamped readings, attach notes, and move data into analysis environments to compare runs, calculate uncertainty, and summarize findings for reports and reviews. Intuitive interfaces reduce training time while robust construction supports daily use across lab spaces and field sites.

Key use cases for research teams:

• Laboratory airflow studies: characterize supply/exhaust balance, air change rates, and fume hood performance.
• Cleanroom and containment R&D: assess pressure differentials and airflow uniformity to support process development.
• Thermal and fluid dynamics experiments: build velocity profiles and boundary-layer insights with appropriate probes.
• HVAC concept validation: confirm modeling assumptions, test control strategies, and support energy-efficient designs.
• Pilot plant optimization: troubleshoot duct losses, verify flow setpoints, and document system changes.

Why TSI for R&D ventilation measurement:

• Research-centric performance: precision measurement with strong repeatability across tests and environments.
• Versatility across methods: compatible with pitot tubes, thermal probes, rotating vanes, and capture hoods for comprehensive coverage.
• Workflow-friendly: logging, tagging, and export help reduce time from measurement to insight.
• Field-ready: portable designs handle daily use across campus buildings, partner sites, and industrial testbeds.

When your work depends on dependable airflow data, TSI instruments help you translate complex ventilation behavior into clear, actionable information. Choose the form factor and measurement capability that fit your protocol, then scale with accessories and software as your research evolves.
