PFM 1000 Introduction The PFM 1000 instrument is designed for hydraulic balancing of heating and cooling systems. It allows measuring static pressure, differential pressures and flow in the said systems. Using the differential pressure measured by the measuring component in the system, PFM 1000 calculates the flow that runs through the component (balancing valve or measuring orifice).
In the Measuring section, these are units for measuring the pressure, flow and temperature. Further, you can turn on/off here the sound for the whole PFM 1000 application. Turn on/off the sound in the PFM 1000 application by pressing the Sound button. In the Records section, you can enter Initial description, Initial record location.
Connect button. This function occurs in many other places in the PFM 1000 application. If you check the Always use the selected device option, the PFM 1000 application will connect with this unit automatically and will not search for any other.
You can select the required valve by pressing the Select valve selection list. After clicking on the blue Manufacturer line, the list of valve manufacturers contained in the PFM 1000 instrument database will open from which you select the manufacturer required by you. The database of valves in the instrument contains valves the world’s leading manufacturers.
The project management in the PFM 1000 measuring instrument makes the work in the real technology easier. You can prepare the project you need to measure directly in the PFM 1000 measuring instrument. You can then store two values for each branch of the project - the initial status of the branch before balancing and its status after balancing.
PFM 1000 Recording The PFM 1000 pressure unit is equipped with the function of independent periodical data recording. This function may make the project diagnostics easier especially for irregular or long-time processes. The recorded data contains the record description, date, time, selected valve, valve preset, medium, temperature of the medium while recording, pressure and flow.
Calculations balancing hydraulic systems. There are the following four calculations in the PFM 1000 application: 1. Preset calculation - calculates the valve preset for the flow requested in the current branch. 2. Pressure loss calculation - calculates the pressure loss on the valve for the requested flow and preset.
The default file is saved in the Internal Memory/ PFM 1000/Quick Records folder. An empty form is displayed upon opening of the Quick Record Database. The required file can then be opened from the Quick Record Database menu using the Open command.
