Measurement Method
1. Using the Uni-directional Probe (Model 0962-00, 0963-00)
These probes have
directivity characteristics which require the direction mark to be faced against the
airflow for measurement. When you are not sure of the airflow direction, slowly rotate the probe in the
horizontal direction, and select the point where the air velocity reading is maximum.
2. Using the Omni-directional Probe (Model 0964-01/02, 0965-00, 0965-01/03/04/07/08)
These probes have uniform sensitivity 360 degrees horizontally. They only need to be set vertical to the
airflow direction for measurement, regardless of the orientation in the horizontal direction.
<Caution>
The probe employs a set of air velocity sensor and temperature compensation sensor to compensate the air
velocity change corresponding to the air temperature change.
In order to obtain this compensation effect, it is required that both the air velocity sensor and the
temperature compensation sensor are exposed to the airflow to be measured under the same temperature
condition. (Refer to the dimensional drawings of probes shown on page 16, 17 to locate the air velocity
sensor and the temperature compensation sensor on each probe.)
