Calibration drift negligible.Ĭalculated from the primary measurements of wind speed and temperature. Thermally isolated, hermetically sealed, precision thermistor mounted externally (US Patent 5,939,645). Measures air, water and snow temperature. Replacement impeller (NK PN-0801) may be field-installed without tools (US Patent 5,783,753). Sustained operation above 60 MPH / 27 m/s will wear impeller rapidly and may cause destruction of impeller. Calibration drift < 1% after 100 hours use at 16 MPH / 7 m/s. Larger of 3% of reading or least significant digitġ inch diameter impeller with precision axle and sapphire bearings.
Winter sports enthusiasts around the world love Kestrel Meters. Whether contemplating which wet suit the cold water warrants, or checking to see how low the wind chill can go in the blind, the Kestrel 2000 is the easy-to-use tool you need.

The Kestrel 2000 wind meter can easily be switched between mph, km/h, ft/min, m/s, knots and Beaufort Scale.Īll Kestrel models can be fitted to a portable rotating wind vane mount and tripod, to create a very portable and accurate weather station.Įvery Kestrel Meter features a large, 1” impeller mounted on a sapphire jewel bearing, which means it starts rotating with the slightest puff of air. This allows the unit to provide a value that is more representative of the typical, ambient conditions rather than peak speeds for instantaneous blasts of air. The wind speed displayed is a 3 second rolling average. Rugged and durable, Kestrels are drop tested, waterproof and float if dropped in water. Innovatively designed for stability and accuracy in abrupt condition changes. Kestrel Weather & Environmental Meters are designed & manufactured in the USA and are backed by Kestrel’s 5-year warranty.
