Device for detecting clogging of filter or filter system used in e.g. fume extraction hood, has microphone detecting and/or processing acoustic signal and converting acoustic signal into electrical signal, which is supplied to electronics
The device (1) has an air duct (3) arranged in an air flow (2) and producing an acoustic signal caused by the air flow. The air duct is designed as a vent hole. A microphone (4) detects and/or processes the acoustic signal. The microphone converts the acoustic signal into an electrical signal, which is supplied to an electronics (5) e.g. microprocessor. A battery (6) produces required energy for the electronics from the air flow. The device is arranged in the airflow between a filter medium i.e. filter mat, and a ventilator. An opening (11) of the vent hole is arranged in a flow direction. An independent claim is also included for a method for operating a device for detecting clogging of filter or filter system.
