Light, precise and convenient: the testo 420 volume flow hood significantly facilitates volume flow measurement at larger air intakes and vents. At only 2.9 kg, it is the lightest volume flow hood on the market. And with the integrated flow straightener, the measuring instrument for volume flow measurement sets new measurement precision standards at swirl outlets.
This allows users to fulfil hygienic Indoor Air Quality and volume flow guidelines and stipulations in ventilation and air conditioning systems quickly and precisely, e.g. in industry, office rooms or in cleanrooms.
What the testo 420 volume flow hood has to offer you
Ergonomic: Exceptionally lightweight, weighing less than 2.9 kg (standard flow hood 610 x 610 mm)
High-precision: Flow straightener significantly reduces common measurement errors at swirl outlets
Efficient: Fast set-up, easy handling and convenient operation via the testo Smart App
Compatible: Measurement, documentation and sending of reports in conjunction with the testo 400

Light: unique weight of less than 2.9 kg. You will feel the difference, particularly for frequent measurements.
Precise: air turbulence at swirl outlets is pacified. This allows reliable measurement of the air flow.
Flexible: optional exchangeable hoods for a variety of measuring tasks.
Efficient: monitor measuring values and send them by e-mail directly on site via App.
Convenient: the tilting display makes it easier to read out the measuring values. By removing the instrument, and with the corresponding accessories, you can comfortably carry out pressure and Pitot tube measurements too.
Smart: the App allows you to use mobile devices as a second display or remote control.
Compatible: Measure and manage measurement and customer data by integrating the testo 400.
With the practical testo Smart App on your smartphone/tablet, you can fully exploit the capabilities of the volume flow hood.
For instance, you can then operate the measuring instrument remotely and also manage your measurement and customer data, and as an added bonus, reports can be sent directly on site via e-mail.

Without an integrated flow straightener, the measurement result can be falsified by air turbulence.
Depending on how the flow hits the instrument, the flow velocities measured are either too high or too low.
A sound level meter measures the noise level of HVAC systems, amongst other things. Why is this important? With air conditioning and ventilation systems, it is not just a case of these being correctly set in terms of the volume flows and of rooms having adequate fresh air supply or used air extraction. That is merely the obligatory element. The voluntary element: the systems not only have to carry out this task in line with the specifications, but also as quietly and unobtrusively as possible. And this is precisely where the sound level meter comes into its own. It enables you to quickly determine the extent of the noise pollution from a system.
In addition to volume flow measuring hoods, Testo also offers further measuring instruments for air conditioning and ventilation measurements:
Vane anemometers measure flow, airspeed, air temperature and humidity at outlets or in ducts, amongst other things.
A thermal anemometer works without a vane and is above all used for the measurement of flow velocity, temperature and humidity directly in ducts or at outlets.
Unlike a volume flow measuring hood, this measuring device for volume flow measurement can often be employed as a multi-function instrument. The uses of a multifunctional flow meter therefore include volume flow measurement in ducts/at outlets and determination of comfort level or evaluation of illuminance too.
