Kestrel 3500 Pocket Weather Meter / Digital Psychrometer Altimeter Anemometer

Description

The Kestrel family of weather and environmental meters began in 1996 when NK co-owner Richard Kellerman needed a dependable wind meter for flying his glider. Recognized today as the standard for accuracy and reliability by professionals and enthusiasts alike, Kestrel Weather & Environmental Meters can be found at the top of Everest, on Special Forces missions, chasing tornadoes and in your backyard. All Kestrel Weather & Environmental Meters are designed and built in the USA to stand up to years of rugged use, calibrated to NIST-traceable standards and come with a five-year warranty.Offering the most functions of any Kestrel Meter in the 3000 series, the Kestrel 3500 Pocket Weather Meter measures temperature, wind speeds, barometric phenomena, pressure trends of up to 3 hours, and more. In addition to the Kestrel 3500 s pressure trend indicator, it also has the advantage of altitude and barometric pressure measurement. With these features on hand at any time, the Kestrel 3500 becomes an ideal weather instrument for outdoor enthusiasts, sportsmen and women, and anyone else that will benefit from accurate and up to the second weather and barometric information.

The Kestrel 3500 s easy to use menu system scrolls through 9 different environmental measurement conditions. It has an external temperature sensor with a waterproof casing that allows you to gauge the temperature of water, snow, and the open air. The sensitive and user-replaceable impeller technology provides accurate wind speed info, and a hard slide-on case, lanyard, and battery are included. It accurately measures:

• Wind Chill
• Air, Water, and Snow Temperature (displayed in Fahrenheit or Celsius w/ accuracy of +/-1 degree)
• Current, Average, and Maximum Wind Speed (displayed in: Beaufort Wind Scale; Knots; MPH; KPH or Feet Per Minute)
• Barometric Pressure
• Pressure Trend
• Altitude
• Relative Humidity
• Dewpoint Temperature
• Wet Bulb Temperature
• Heat Stress Index

Note that the Kestrel 3500 provides a complete range of weather measurements, but does not log accumulated data like the more high-tech weather meters of the Kestrel 4000 series.
