IOT SENSOR SOLUTION

Airflow Monitoring

Verify that air moves where and when it should across vents, ducts, HVAC zones, and critical environments.

What we can monitor

  • Air velocity
  • Differential air pressure
  • Supply and return performance
  • Changes across filters or controlled areas

Common applications

  • HVAC systems
  • Data centers
  • Manufacturing and clean spaces
  • Schools and commercial buildings

Operational outcomes

  • Early fan or filter issue detection
  • Improved HVAC performance
  • Better environmental control
  • Reduced energy waste

WHY IT MATTERS

The business case for airflow monitoring.

Loss of airflow can be an early sign of a failed fan, blocked filter, closed damper, duct problem, or pressure imbalance—issues that may otherwise appear first as complaints or equipment alarms.

FROM SIGNAL TO ACTION

How airflow monitoring becomes an operational response.

Alerts can flag loss of flow, degrading performance, or an unexpected pressure relationship. Maintenance receives the affected system and trend context needed to investigate before comfort or process conditions deteriorate.

AIRFLOW MONITORING FAQ

Questions specific to this solution.

What is the difference between airflow and differential-pressure monitoring?

Airflow measures movement or velocity, while differential pressure compares pressure between two points. Either or both may be useful depending on the HVAC or controlled-space requirement.

Can this help identify dirty filters?

A change in pressure or airflow across a filter can indicate increasing restriction, provided the system is designed and baselined for that purpose.
