Air Velocity Meter can be powered in one of two ways: four size AA batteries or the AC adapter.

Installing the Batteries

Insert four AA batteries as indicated by the diagram located on the inside of the battery compartment. The Model 9565 is designed to operate with either alkaline or NiMH rechargeable batteries. Battery life will be shorter if NiMH batteries are used. If

NiMH batteries are used the DIP switch will need to be changed.

Refer to the next section, DIP Switch Settings . Carbon-zinc

batteries are not recommended because of the danger of battery acid leakage.

DIP Switch Settings

To access the DIP switch, remove the batteries from the battery compartment. On the inside of the battery compartment, there is a window with a single DIP switch (see figure below). The table below shows the functions for the switch.

Caution: Make certain that power is turned off before changing the

DIP switch settings.

Do not attempt to charge alkaline batteries.

Using the AC Adapter

The AC adapter can be used to power the instrument or to charge the NiMH batteries when the DIP switch in the battery compartment is set to NiMH. If the DIP switch is set to

Alkaline, and the AC power adapter is connected, then the batteries will be bypassed and the meter will be powered by the AC adapter. Be sure to provide the correct voltage and frequency, which is marked on the back of the AC adapter.

AC Adapter input

4 Chapter 2

Connecting Ventilation or IAQ Probes

The ventilation and IAQ probes have a

“D” shape overmolding on the mini-DIN connector which must align with the connector at the base of the 9565 series meter. This will ensure the probe is properly connected and remains so during use. Once connected and turned on, refer to the DISPLAY SETUP for displaying the desired measurements.

“D” Shaped mini-DIN connector

Using the Telescoping Thermoanemometer Probes

The telescoping probe contains the velocity, temperature, and humidity sensors. When using the probe, make sure the sensor window is fully exposed and the orientation dimple is facing upstream.

N O T E

For temperature and humidity measurements, make sure that at least 3 inches (7.5 cm) of the probe is in the flow to allow the temperature and humidity sensors to be in the air stream.

Extending the Probe

To extend the probe, hold the handle in one hand while pulling on the probe tip with the other hand. Do not hold the cable while extending the probe as this prevents the robe from extending.

Retracting the Probe

To retract the probe, hold the handle in one hand while gently pulling the probe cable until the smallest antenna section is retracted.

Setting-up 5

Do not use the instrument or probes near hazardous voltage sources since serious injury could result.

Using the Pressure Ports (9565-P)

The 9565-P includes pressure ports that can be used to measure static and differential pressures in ductwork. For more information, see Application Note TSI-107 .

Negative (-) Pressure Port Positive (+) Pressure Port

Connecting the Static Pressure Probe

The Static Pressure probe included with the 9565-P is connected to the + port on the 9565-P using the included tubing. The Static

Pressure probe is used to measure the duct static pressure and features a magnet which holds the probe to the ductwork.

6 Chapter 2

Connecting an Optional Pitot Probe or Airflow (straight pitot) Probe

When connected to a pitot probe, air velocity or air volume can be measured. A pitot probe can be connected to the

“+” and “-” pressure ports on the Model 9565-P using two pieces of tubing of equal length. The total pressure port of the pitot probe connects to the “+” port on the meter, and the static pressure port of the pitot probe connects to the “-” port on the meter.

For information on how to perform a duct traverse, refer to

Application Note TSI-106 .

N o t e

The pitot velocity needs a valid temperature to perform the standard or actual velocity correction. This is accomplished in the “Actual/Std Setup” menu. If no probe capable of measuring temperature (plug in probe or thermocouple) is connected, the“Temp Source” must be set to “Entered”. The duct air temperature must then be manually inputted by the user using the “Entered Temp” setting. If the “Temp Source” is set to Probe or Thermocouple 1 or 2, and no probe is connected, dashes (------) will appear on the display.

For more information on entering the temperature manually,

refer to the Actual/Standard Setup section of this manual.

Setting-up 7

Do not use the instrument or probes near hazardous voltage sources since serious injury could result.

Thermocouple Ports

The 9565 series includes two thermocouple ports at the base of the meter. Any K-Alloy thermocouple with mini-connector can be

attached. See Display Setup for setting the thermocouple

temperature readings to be displayed as TC1, TC2, or TC1-TC2.

Connecting the Thermocouples

The K-Alloy thermocouple with mini-connector has one terminal wider than the other. The wider terminal will be inserted into the bottom of the TC1 or TC2 connector port.

K-alloy Thermocouple

TC1 TC2

Thermocouples from an alternate TSI supplier must have the metal sheath electrically isolated from the wires inside. Failure to meet this requirement may result in false readings, electrical shock, or fire hazard.

Do not use the instrument or probes near hazardous voltage sources since serious injury could result.

Common Terms

In this manual there are several terms that are used in different places. The following is a brief explanation of the meanings of those terms.

Sample

Consists of all of the measurement parameters stored at the same time.

Test ID

Time Constant

Log Interval

Test Length

A group of samples. The statistics (average, minimum, maximum, and count) are calculated for each test ID. The maximum number of test IDs is 100.

The time constant is an averaging period. It is used to dampen the display. If you are experiencing fluctuating flows, a longer time constant will slow down those fluctuations. The display will update every second, but the displayed reading will be the average over the last time constant period. For example, if the time constant is 10 seconds, the display will update every second, but the displayed reading will be the average from the last 10 seconds. This is also referred to as a “moving average”.

The logging interval is the period over which the instrument will average the logged sample. For example, if the logging interval is set to 30 minutes, each sample will be the average over the previous

30 minutes.

This is the time over which the data will be logged in the “Continuous-Time” mode of data logging.

The Model 9565 and accessory probes can also be recalibrated in the field using the CALIBRATION menu. These field adjustments are intended to make minor changes in calibration to match a user's calibration standards. The field adjustment is NOT intended as a complete calibration capability. For complete, multiple-point calibration and certification, the instrument must be returned to the factory.

Cases

If the instrument case or storage case needs cleaning, wipe it off with a soft cloth and isopropyl alcohol or a mild detergent. Never immerse the Model 9565. If the enclosure of the Model 9565 or the AC adapter becomes broken, it must be replaced immediately to prevent access to hazardous voltage.

Storage

Remove the batteries when storing the unit for more than one month to prevent damage due to battery leakage.
