Section 1 - Introduction
The HHF1000 series handheld air velocity/temperature meter measures and displays air velocity mass flow and air temperature of clean air flows in ducts & pipes, while producing very little pressure drop in the flow stream. The HHF1000 series can be used in research & development labs, HVAC applications, and other manufacturing processes. The sensor design is based on three RTD elements, one measures the air temperature and the other two measure the air velocity. The air velocity is measured based on the heat loss from the RTD velocity sensor as it cools down by the air flow.
The HHF1000 series offers many standard features such as dual display of air velocity & temperature, high & low alarm indications for air velocity, volume air flow measurement, USB PC interface with a Windows based PC interface software. The HHF1000 displays the air velocity in feet per minute (FPM), meter per second (m/s), miles per hour (MPH), and kilometer per hour (Km/h). The air temperature is displayed in ºF & ºC. The volume air flow is displayed in Cubic Feet per minute (CFM) and Cubic meter per minute (CMM). The sensor probe is 12" long as standard. The 304 Stainless steel sensor tubing is provided with inch marks for ease of insertion depths. The sensor probe comes in two different versions as follows:
Introduction

• Fixed 12 inches long Probe
• Telescopic probe adjustable from 10 to 36 inches
The unit powers from a 9V battery or a 9Vdc adapter.
The following table shows all the models of this product:

Introduction
The HHF1000 series air velocity/temperature meter is intended for use with clean air or Nitrogen ONLY. Do not use with other gases, as it will produce an un-calibrated and non-linear display measurement. In addition, air carrying dust or oil (such as found in blower/compressor systems that utilize oil) can lead to coating of the sensor and thus inaccurate readings. Refer to the Maintenance section (page 4-3) for information on cleaning the sensor.
The HHF1000 is a bi-directional device, meaning the air flow in the forward or reverse direction provides the same readings.

Section 2 - Installation
1. Install the 9V battery in the battery compartment of the case. You can remove the battery door to get to the compartment.
2. Remove the protective cap from the sensor tip.
3. Run a length of straight pipe before and after the flow sensor probe. The amount of upstream straight pipe required depends on the type of obstruction which is immediately upstream of the flow sensor. See Table 1 (on next page) for specific requirements. Downstream of the flow sensor, in all situations, run 5 diameters of straight pipe regardless of the downstream obstruction.
4. Align the sensor probe with the air flow. Make sure the air flow is perpendicular to the sensor window. The score line on the sensor tubing is another way of aligning the sensor to the flow stream. The score line starts from the center of the sensor window and as a result it can be aligned properly.
5. One way of installing the sensor probe into a flow stream is to utilize a compression fitting such as Omega’s SSLK-14-14 stainless steel compression fitting with Teflon ferrule, which allows adjustment of the insertion depth of the probe.
