How is the primary airflow to the active chilled beam measured?
The way to accurately measure the primary air flow into the active chilled beam is by reading the static pressure from the commissioning tube sampling the primary air plenum. A primary air flow versus static pressure chart is provided for each unit. Do not utilize readings in the duct near the unit and presume it will be the same in the plenum for commissioning purposes. This measurement could be up to 0.3″ wc off.
