EXTECH Instruments 407113 CFM Metal Vane Anemometer

Description

Product Overview

The Extech Instruments 407113 CFM Metal Vane Anemometer is engineered for precise airflow measurement in demanding industrial and scientific settings. Constructed from robust metal, the device resists wear and corrosion while delivering consistent performance over years of use. Its large triple display simultaneously shows relative humidity, temperature, and dew point, allowing users to monitor multiple environmental parameters at a glance. Powered by two rechargeable lithium‑ion batteries, the anemometer offers long‑lasting operation without frequent battery changes. The built‑in stand enables desk placement, and an optional wall‑mount bracket provides flexible installation options. With a compact footprint of 7 × 2.9 × 1.3 inches and a weight of just 1.61 lb, the unit is portable yet sturdy enough for field work. The device includes programmable alarm thresholds that trigger visual and audible alerts when humidity exceeds user‑defined limits, helping prevent mold growth and equipment damage.

Usage

Designed for a wide range of applications, this metal vane anemometer excels in HVAC system testing, clean‑room monitoring, laboratory research, and environmental compliance inspections. Technicians can use it to verify airflow rates in ducts, assess ventilation effectiveness in manufacturing plants, or track humidity levels in storage facilities where sensitive materials are kept. The durable metal housing makes it suitable for harsh environments such as construction sites, outdoor utility inspections, and agricultural settings where temperature and humidity fluctuate rapidly. Its intuitive interface requires minimal training, allowing both seasoned engineers and entry‑level staff to obtain reliable data quickly. The programmable alarms are especially valuable in facilities that must maintain strict humidity controls, such as data centers, pharmaceutical labs, and museum archives. By providing real‑time feedback, the anemometer helps users make immediate adjustments to ventilation or dehumidification systems, reducing downtime and protecting valuable assets.
