Abstract

A dust measurement system measuring the build up of dust on a filter includes a monitoring device, a pitot tube, and an environment control unit. The pitot tube head aligned with the filter. The environment control unit receives the measured speed of air flow and compares the measured speed with a preset value. When the measuring speed is greater than the preset value, the environment control unit outputs the first control signal to the monitoring device, to control the monitoring device to display that the filter does not need to be replaced. When the measuring speed is less than or equal to the preset value, the environment control unit outputs the second control signal to the monitoring device, to control the monitoring device to display that the filter needs to be replaced.

Claims (10)

1. A dust measurement system applicable to measure dust built up on a filter, comprising:

a monitoring device;

a head of a pitot tube aligned with the filter, wherein the head of the pitot tube faces an orientation of air flow for measuring a speed of air flow passing through the filter, the pitot tube outputs the measured speed of air flow;

an environment control unit to receive the measured speed of air flow and compare the measured speed with a preset value, which is a speed of air flow when the filter needs to be replaced, and output a first control signal or a second control signal to the monitoring device according to a compared result; and

a rear end of the pitot tube connected to the environment control unit, for outputting the measured speed of the air flow to the environment control unit;

wherein when the measured speed is greater than the preset value, the environment control unit outputs the first control signal to the monitoring device, to control the monitoring device to display that the filter does not need to be replaced; when the measured speed is less than or equal to the preset value, the environment control unit outputs the second control signal to the monitoring device, to control the monitoring device to display that the filter needs to be replaced.

2. The dust measurement system of claim 1 , wherein the environment control unit outputs the first control signal or the second control signal to the monitoring device through a wired network.

3. The dust measurement system of claim 1 , wherein the environment control unit outputs the first control signal or the second control signal to the monitoring device through a wireless network.

4. The dust measurement system of claim 3 , wherein the monitoring device is a remote monitoring device.

5. The dust measurement system of claim 1 , wherein the pitot tube includes an inner tube, an outer tube fitting about the inner tube, and a side tube extended from a sidewall of the outer tube to communicate with an inner space of the outer tube.
