PCE-007 air flow meter
accurate air flow meter with connection port, memory,
software for measuring wind speed, temperature and air flow

This air flow meter is very economical. With this air flow meter you can measure wind speed and air temperature. Once you have entered the cross section, the air flow meter will show the air flow. The readings can be stored in the device and then transferred to a computer for further analysis. As such, you can take a series of measurements with the air flow meter off-site, then analyse the data back at the office. This way, you save time and maintain a high level of accuracy in readings. The external impeller, connected by a 1.5m long cable, increases the mobility and flexibility of measurements of wind speed. These air flow meters form a part of the basic equipment of an installation technician for  ventilation systems. The life-span of the battery is approx. 50 hours with a current of 300 mA/h. If you wish to take timed measurements over a period of time longer than 2 days, you will need to use a battery pack, or a power adaptor. This link gives a general overview of air flow meters (for example, a multifunction air flow meter).

The air flow meter:

• measures wind speed and air temperature

• stores up to 2000 readings

• comes with an RS-232 interface

• has software to transfer data

• shows distinct units of measurement

• has a dual display

• is easy to use

• Max/Min/Hold functions
