1. Introduction
This anemometer is can provide fast, easy and accurate
measurements of air velocity, air flow and temperature. It’s
extra-large and easy to read backlit LCD displays air flow and
temperature readings simultaneously.
2. Application
These units are widely used in manufacturing, construction,
environmental, meteorological and marine applications, as well as
the education and leisure sectors.
3. Safety
Read the following safety information carefully before attempting
to operate the meter.
Use the meter only as specified in this manual. Improper use could
affect the accuracy of the measurements taken.
EMC compliant
4. Maintenance
This meter has already been calibrated before delivery, but may
need to be re-calibrated to ensure the accuracy of readings taken.
The unit contains no user serviceable parts, repairs and calibration
should be carried out by qualified personnel. The recommended
calibration period is one year.
Do not use volatile liquids to clean the unit, wipe with dry soft cloth.

8. Changing the Battery
Use a small screwdriver to remove the securing screw on the
battery compartment and remove the battery cover. Attach the
battery connector to the terminals of a suitable 9V battery and
replace the cover and screw. Remove the battery when the meter
is to be stored for long periods of time to avoid battery leakage and
possible damage to the meter.

Units selection: After enter measuring mode, press the “” button
to select desired units.
HOLD: Press the “ ” button once, the “HOLD” icon will appear on
the LCD, which indicates the reading is frozen. Press the button again
to exit HOLD mode.
MAX/MIN: Press the "" button once until the "MAX" icon appears
on the LCD to view the current maximum reading; press the button
again and the "MIN" icon will appear to view the current minimum
reading. To exit MAX/MIN mode, press the " " button again.
AVG Button: Press the “ ” button once, ‘AVG’ will appear on LCD,
the meter is now in average measuring mode, the average value of the
last 30 readings will be displayed on the LCD.

Temperature Units: Press the " " button to select ℃or ℉.
Setting the Area Units:Press and hold the " " button and then
power the meter on, release "" button when LCD displays. The
wind speed section will be flashing and the set area will be displayed.
Pressing the " " button changes the units from m2to ft2
The area units can be altered by pressing the UP and DOWN buttons.
If a large change in area is required the decimal point can be shifted
by pressing the "" button.
If the set area is above 9999 m2, the actual
area=displayed data x100 as shown above.
