The air-flow monitor provides a simple alternative to indicate positive or negative air flow of fans or blowers. When
properly installed and connected in series with an optical (i.e. LED) or audible signaling device, a bi-directional switch will
activate an electrical contact if the air flow of the fan falls below 8.2 ft/s, turning the signaling device on or off. The AFM
monitor can also be attached to an existing grill or guard.
