sensor is built into the remote fan and is specially protected by a twist
cap. While in operation, open the cap for accurate temperature and
humidity readings.
Features include
• Measures Air Velocity, Temperature and Humidity
• Calculate Wet Bulb, Dew Point, and Air Volume (CFM, CMM)
• Protective twist cap for temperature/humidity sensor
• 8-Point Average for Air Velocity
• 30 Second Average for Air Volume
• Total Volume from multiple outlets
• Large LCD digital display
• Professional remote vane
• English/Metric scales
• Low battery indication
• Fast response
• Microprocessor circuitry for reliability
• Auto Power Off selectable
• Powered by 1 “9V” battery
