Handheld Anemometers, Thermo/Hygrometers
Handheld anemometers DwyerOmega are versatile and compact units that quickly and easily measure a variety of air quality standards in imperial or metric units. Model 471B-1 is provided with the Dwyer AP1 thermo anemometer probe and is able to measure air velocity or volumetric air flow, as well as air temperature. Model 473B-1 is provided with Dwyer VP1 (100 mm) vane thermo anemometer probe and is able to measure air velocity or volumetric air flow, as well as air temperature and humidity. Model 485B-1 is provided with Dwyer RP1 thermo hygrometer probe and is able to measure relative humidity and air temperature.
AP1, VP1, and RP1 probes are automatically recognized when plugged into the handheld, and can be interchanged without needing to adjust calibration.
Note: the lengths listed in the configurator are the lengths of the working part of the probe, the total length is greater.

Pressure Transducers and Transmitters
A pressure transducer, often called a pressure transmitter, is a sensor that converts pressure into an analog electrical signal. Although there are various types of transducers, one of the most common is the strain-gage wheatstone bridge pressure transducer.
The conversion of pressure into an electrical signal is achieved by the physical deformation of strain gages which are bonded into the diaphragm of the pressure transducer and wired into a wheatstone bridge configuration. Pressure applied to the transducer produces a deflection of the diaphragm which introduces strain to the gages. The strain will produce an electrical resistance change proportional to the pressure...
