Introducing the pocket wind meter, a highly accurate hand-held weather meter designed to measure current wind speed, average wind speed, maximum wind gust, wind chill, relative humidity, dewpoint, heat stress index, and the temperature of air, water, and snow. While providing accurate measurements for weather prediction, this pocket wind meter is particularly useful for measuring relative humidity - featuring twice-patented humidity sensors. From the relative humidity readings, it also calculates the dewpoint and heat stress index, essential information when evaluating the safety of weather conditions during particularly strenuous outdoor activities.
This portable pocket weather meter is perfect for professional and collegiate athletic trainers, storm chasers and wildland firefighters alike understand the importance of monitoring field conditions. You know you’re working hard - make sure you’re staying safe. This weather meter keeps you from working past your limits. From the Kestrel 3000’s accurate relative humidity readings, it also calculates the dewpoint and heat stress index—important information to know when working or playing outdoors in hot and humid conditions. Furthermore, the Meters are used by NFL trainers to determine how frequently the athletes need to hydrate, and when the conditions are unhealthy for strenuous exercise. It’s become practically required equipment for wildland firefighters—users whose lives literally depend on the accurate weather data their meter provides. Moreover, all Kestrel instruments are made in the USA and are backed with a five-year warranty.

Applications
| Wind Speed | Accuracy: ± Larger of 3% of reading, least significant digit or 20' (6 m)/minute Resolution 0.1 m/s, 1' (0.30 m)/minute, 0.1 km/h, 0.1 mph, 0.1 knots, 1 B Range 118 to 7,874' (2399.9952 m)/minute (0.6 to 40.0 m/s), 1.3 to 89.5 mph (2.2 to 144.0 km/h), 1.2 to 77.8 knots, 0 to 12 B |
| Ambient Temperature | Accuracy: ±0.9°F (0.5°C) Resolution: 0.1°F (0.1°C) Range: -20 to 158°F (-29 to 70°C) |
| Relative Humidity | Accuracy: ±3% RH Resolution: 0.1% RH Range: 5 to 95% at 77°F (25°C) non-condensing |
| Dew Point | Accuracy: ±3.4°F (1.9°C) at 15 to 95% RH (refer to range for temperature sensor) Resolution: 0.1°F (0.1°C) |
| Pressure | Accuracy: ±1.5 hPa|mbar, 0.044 "Hg, 0.022 PSI Resolution: 0.1 hPa|mbar, 0.01 "Hg, 0.01 PSI Range: 77°F(25°C), 750-1100 hPa|mbar, 22.15-32.48 "Hg, 10.88 to 15.95 PSI |
| Display | Reflective LCD |
| Backlight | Standard or dim red (NV models only) backlight. Manual activation with auto-off |
| Response Time & Display Update | Display updates every 1 second. After exposure to large environmental changes, all sensors require an equilibration period to reach stated accuracy. Measurements employing RH may require longer periods particularly after prolonged exposure to very high or very low humidity. |
| Auto Shutdown | After 45 minutes with no key presses |
| Clock | Real time hour: Minute display |
| Certifications | CE certified, RoHS and WEEE compliant. Individually tested to NIST-traceable standards |
| Battery | Requires one CR2032 battery, included. Up to 300 hours of use, reduced by backlight use |
| Shock Resistance | MIL-STD-810g, Transit Shock, Method 516.6 Procedure IV; unit only; impact may damage replaceable impeller |
| Sealing | Waterproof (IP67 and NEMA-6) |
| Environmental Conditions | Operational temperature limits: 14° to 131° F (-10 to 55°C) Storage temperature: -22 to 140 °F (-30 to 60 C) |
| Dimensions | 4.8 x 1.9 x 1.1" (12.1 x 4.8 x 2.7 cm) |
| Weight | 0.2 lbs (102 g) |
