Description
Sauermann DBM 620 Air Flow Hood Complete Kit with 4 Additional Hood Sizes
Complete Air Balancing Kit with 5 Hood Sizes and a 24-Point Measurement Grid
The Sauermann DBM 620 Air Flow Hood is a professional air balancing instrument designed for measuring airflow directly at supply and return diffusers. With a measuring range of 21 to 2501 CFM, the DBM 620 delivers accurate airflow readings while also displaying air velocity, differential pressure, temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure. The removable measuring module can be used independently as a micromanometer with a Pitot tube attachment, adding versatility for advanced HVAC testing and balancing applications.
Designed for maximum field flexibility, this complete kit includes five interchangeable hood sizes to accommodate a wide range of grille and diffuser configurations. Bluetooth connectivity with the SmartKap mobile app, automatic extraction and supply airflow detection, Air Change Rate (ACR) calculations, and the quick-change hood system help technicians perform airflow measurements efficiently across commercial HVAC systems. Its lightweight folding frame, transparent hood window, and compact transport design make setup, testing, and storage fast and convenient.
