Kestrel® 3000 Pocket Wind Meter Plus
Product Code #KES3000
Tracks maximum and average wind speeds along with current readings. Displays wind speed in knots, meters per second, kilometers per hour, miles per hour, feet per minute or Beaufort force. Temperature, wind chill, heat index and dew point temperature can be displayed in °C or °F. Relative humidity is expressed as a percentage. Measuring modes and display units can be changed at any time and all functions are controlled with two buttons. A hard, slip-on ergonomic case protects the display, buttons and impeller. 5-year manufacturer’s warranty.
Accurate readings may be taken beyond these temperature limits by exposing the unit for the minimum time necessary to take and record measurements.
Minimum wind speed: 0.7 mph (0.6 knots, 1 km/h, 0.3 m/s, or 60 fpm). Maximum wind speed: 89 mph (78 knots, 144 km/h, 40 m/s, or 7,830 fpm). Wind speed accuracy: ±3%. Update: 1 second. Temperature and wind chill accuracy: ±1°C. Wind chill factor resolution: ±1°C. Relative humidity accuracy: ±3% from 5% to 95%. Dew point temperature accuracy: ±2°C. Heat index accuracy: ±3°C.
