DM-2 mkII Digital GaugeThe DM-2 mkII is more than just adigital gauge. It is the advancedcontrol center at the heart of everyRetrotec system. It has everyimaginable feature neededto make testing faster,easier, and moreaccurate, withoutthe need for acomputer, yet isstill simple to use

1000 standard power fanThis 24 inch (60 cm) fan is ideallysuited for testing most houses andsome small commercial andindustrial buildings.

3300SR large building fanThis Retrotec exclusive fan is superpowerful and super stable. Its customindustrial strength motor is designedfor continuous operation and willnever over-heat.

The 3300 SR fans are "Self Referenced", making them the ideal

building science tool since theycannot be hooked up incorrectly andalways reference the ow properlyeven when attaching a Flex Duct tocreate the world’s largest duct tester,or when performing oor-at-a-timehigh rise building tests.

Q4E Q5E-2X or Q4E-2X (not shown)

For testing to NFPA2001 and ISO14520

Best ValueThe Model 1000 system has

automatic pressure control andan advanced regulated controlcircuit to prevent fan speedfrom wavering. Simply key inthe test pressure required andthe 1000 will take it there anddisplay the leakage area on theDM-2 screen.

Measure Upper and Lower Leaks Separately The Model Q5E-2X system is actuallythree systems in one. The two Model3300SR fans can be used as twoseparate Q5E systems, orcombined into one system fortesting large buildings.When used with the includedFlex Duct, it is the onlysystem that will performthe Below CeilingLeakage Area test, to

test enclosures withleaks above asuspended ceiling.

Both fans can beused together totest enclosuresup to 21,600 ft2

(2,000 m2) of oor area.

Test larger enclosuresThe Model Q4E systemfeatures the powerful 3300SRfan (0.75 Vs 2 hp). Test largeenclosures with only ONE fan!The Cloth Door Panel keepsthe cost down, giving youthe best performance at thelowest price. Ideal for testinglarge & small enclosures of alltypes and for Pressure Relief Vent testing.

The Perfect EnclosureTesting System

The Model Q5E Inltrometersystem combines the best of everything; gauge, controller,fan and a modular door panel,to create our most exiblesystem for whole roomtesting. Fits almost anydoorway in virtually any sizeof enclosure. Tests installedrelief vent damperswhere the addedpressure andow capability

Grill Mask is essentialfor covering leaks tosequentially determinewhich leaks are causingthe enclosure to fail.

Level 1, 2 and 3 trainingare required for singlefan testing and level 3 forthe Q5E2X and the BelowCeiling Leakage Area test.

Air Current Testers areessential for nding leaksand indicating airowdirection.

The pie graph shows what percentage of Retrotec customers buy a particular model.Most people choose the Q4E or Q5E,because it will test almost any room, with asmall, quick to set up package. Enclosurescommonly fail due to excessive above-ceiling leaks, but a Q4E-2X or Q5E-2X willoften show these rooms can pass whenthe 2 fans are used along with the includedleakage split kit and will often eliminate theneed for a PRV.

Pressure Relief VentsGravity actuated PRV’s are fully closed at80 Pa and fully open at 95 Pa, ensuringsafe dissipation of the peak pressurescreated by clean agent discharge.

Models Sold (for this application)

Dual Flow Pressure Relief VentsThe RSH dual ow PRV’s have beencarefully engineered to relieve boththe positive and negative pressurescaused by halocarbon discharge.
