Product description

The American Educational 7-1000 cup anemometer features three black cups and one red cup for counting revolutions per minute to observe wind speed in educational weather-monitoring experiments. It's made of corrosion-resistant materials to withstand outdoor use. It is 220 x 160 mm (H x W, where H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; and W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right.)

Anemometers, also called wind meters, measure air velocity and are most commonly used for weather monitoring to determine wind speed and for HVAC applications to determine air flow within ducts. In addition to air velocity, anemometers may measure wind direction, air pressure, air flow volume, air temperature, humidity, light, and other properties. The most common types of anemometer are cup, vane, hot-wire, and Pitot tube. Cup and vane anemometers calculate air velocity based on the number of rotations of the cups or vane. Hot-wire anemometers calculate air velocity by measuring the change in electrical resistance as air flow cools a heated wire. Pitot tube anemometers measure air pressure within a tube and calculate air velocity based on the difference in pressure between the air inside and outside of the tube. Many anemometers have digital readouts and can display air velocity readings in different units of measure, such as meters per second (m/s), feet per minute (ft./min. or fpm), knots
