Air speed is a value which may be of importance in many areas. The focus here is on values in a ventilation duct, but it also makes sense to carry out an air speed measurement inside rooms. Here is where the use of a Testo Anemometer is the ideal solution.
Anemometers may also be refered to as wind speed meter. However, it is not just a case of using it to measure wind velcity, it can also record the volume flow. Therefore, many anemometers have an integrated flow meter. The air flow velocity and the volume flow inside rooms both have an influence on the indoor air quality. Regular measurement is all the more important, because many different influencing factors are involved, which are in most cases, impossible to detect immediately.

The measurement of air flow is not only an interesting factor in terms of finding out more about the ambient conditions. The anemometers are now also more frequently used indoors. In this context, it is referred to as a thermal anemometer.
The vane anemometer is very commonly used in this area. This instrument has a probe head which can be employed to measure the airspeed and volume flow. Testo offers anemometers which can read temperatures of up to 284°F, while continuing to carry out accurate measurements.
Select Testo Anemometers have a permanently installed probe for flow measurement. These instruments are used to enable a function test to be performed on ventilation and air conditioning systems. Flow velocities develop in a ventilation duct. Checking these flow velocities is an important factor in terms of testing whether there may be a negative influence on the indoor air quality. Measurement of the flow velocity using a thermal anemometer also enables calculation of the volume flow.
Wind measurement is carried out with an anemometer inside rooms when there are uncertainties about the air flow and temperature. This may be caused by structural defects or leaky windows. In some cases, the flows are so small that they cannot always be immediately identified. However, they can be quickly detected by using an instrument as sensitive as an anemometer.

Nowadays, it may be particularly helpful to use an anemometer featuring a smartphone connection. This makes analysis of the values considerably easier. You can order a thermal anemometer with smartphone operation from Testo.
The model is able to measure volume flow and temperature, as well as velocity. The measuring values are then sent to an App. This enables you to obtain the values directly and analyze them, as well as compare them to other measurements.
A flow meter or a wind speed meter that has smartphone connectivity ensures that it is easier to measure in ventilation ducts in particular. The testo Smart App whichis FREE, and easy to use with its intuitive user interface.

If you want to buy a air flow meter, you will find a selection of different models at Testo. Classic anemometers for the measurement of air flows are also included, along with pure flow meters or combination instruments, which can also be used to measure temperatures.
Thermal anemometers can be used in a variety of applications. They benefit from easy handling and fast transmission of values. If you would like even easier analysis, you can also decide on a model featuring smartphone connectivity.
Velocity measurements can be carried out using a variety of instruments. The volume flow hood is one of many options, however, this instrument is designed primarily to readout volume flow. It was developed for use at ceiling outlets, to carry out precise measurements.
The testo 420 - Easy and convenient to operate. It is possible to create a report with the help of the App.
In addition to volume flow, it also measures relative humidity and temperature. Efficient results can therefore be achieved in combination with an anemometer.
Vane anemometer can be used as a flow meter, as well as a measuring instrument for velocity. These instruments are ideally suited for wind measurement outdoors. Testo offers designs which enable you to carry out measurements quickly and easily on ventilation outlets. You also have the option of measuring air temperature and speed. The calculation of different parameters is offered, simply at the touch of a button on the anemometer.
