The anemometer is useful for outdoor use since it determines the Beaufort wind force and the wind chill temperature, which is the temperature a person perceives owing to wind-related cooling.
The vane anemometer with practical functions
The testo 410-1 Pocket sized vane anemometer includes a plug-on protective cap, as well as a wrist strap for secure measurement, and enables you to take advantage of the following functions:
Single-point averaging: The anemometer provides information on the average air velocity, e.g. at air outlets
Hold function: is used to record the current values relating to air velocity and air temperature and compare them with each other
Max/min values: get the minimum or maximum values since the anemometer was last switched on or reset, at the touch of a button
Illuminated display: read off your readings even in dark environments
Selectable units: for air velocity and temperature: m/s, km/h, fpm, mph, kts, Beaufort, °C, °F and wind chill
