Standard Duty Flow Test Kit – Model 842

Range: 0-50" H2O thru 0-100 PSID Rugged (2) gauge medium duty portable flow test kit. This kit is equipped with two differential pressure gauges with complimentary dials ranges, enabling it to cover a broad range of differential pressures with accuracies of ± 3-2-3% full scale (ascending). Both gauges are protected against over-range to the maximum working pressure of the test kit. While primarily used for balancing HVAC systems it has numerous other applications which include but are not limited to: checking pump performance, checking pressure drop across filters, leakage, etc...

Functions and Applications

1. Connect hoses to test connections – red high pressure hose upstream and green low pressure hose downstream
2. Open valves on device being tested and read differential.
3. Upon completion of test close valves, disconnect hoses and store them in test kit case.

NOTE: The 842 Test Kit is equipped with in line filters near the ends of the hoses. If the gauges respond slowly to changes in the differential pressure the filter elements may be partially plugged.

To remedy this, unscrew the two halves of the filter housing and remove brass filter element. It may be cleaned by flushing with mild detergent and water. If, after reassembly this has not satisfactorily improved the response time a replacement filter element kit #98008 should be installed.
