Alnor Capture Hoods

Alnor Capture Hoods are built to help TAB technicians and facility teams measure airflow at terminals with minimal setup and consistent results. Whether you are documenting design flows during commissioning or addressing comfort complaints, these hoods support a smooth workflow.

Key Capabilities

• Volumetric Flow at Terminals: Capture supply and return airflow directly where occupants experience it.
• Multiple Hood Sizes: Match common grille and diffuser dimensions to reduce measurement uncertainty.
• Stable Base: Designed to reduce added resistance for more stable readings.
• Reporting Support: Select models feature data storage and export to simplify deliverables.

Use Scenarios

• Commissioning: Confirm design airflows and support balancing sequences.
• Rebalance and Maintenance: Check performance after filter changes or equipment service.
• Troubleshooting: Identify imbalances and low-flow conditions affecting comfort or ventilation.

Tips for Effective Measurements

• Fit and Seal: Ensure the hood fits snugly around the terminal to minimize measurement bias.
• Reading Stabilization: Wait for steady readings and average if flow is variable.
• Consistent Technique: Maintain a repeatable method across rooms and technicians.

Choosing a Model

• Hood Kit Selection: Pick hood sizes that match your region’s diffuser standards.
• Data Features: If your firm delivers detailed reports, logging and Bluetooth capabilities help reduce paperwork.
• Portability: Consider weight, cases, and field accessories for multi-site days.

With their straightforward operation and field-ready design, Alnor Capture Hoods help you maintain measurement consistency and keep projects on schedule.
