General

Probe and Sensor Node Configurations

Fan Arrays (less than or equal to 4 fans): 2 probes x 1 sensor node per probe or 1 probe x 1 sensor node per probe in each fan
Fan Arrays (greater than 4 fans): 1 probe x 1 sensor node per probe in each fan (8 probe maximum)

Installed Airflow Accuracy¹

±(3% to 10%) of reading, depending on fan type and installation. May be improved by field adjustment using the Field Adjust Wizard (FAW) to a reliable reference.

Sensor Node Averaging Method

Airflow: Independent, arithmetic average per fan
Temperature: Independent, velocity weighted average
