Description
KESTREL 5500 FIRE WEATHER METER PRO
What's new with the Kestrel 5500FW over the Standard Kestrel 5500:
You'll get all the features and benefits of the lightweight waterless 5500 meter with a few added benefits:
-
PIG Screen (Probability of Ignition)
-
FDFM Screen (Fine Dead Fuel Moisture)
Advantage over the Kestrel 3000 & Kestrel 3500FW models: You won't need to calibrate this meter! Kestrel AU will stand by this and other 5000 series models to hold calibration within drift for 5 years. Kestrel AU will repair, recalibrate or replace any defective product within the warranty period. Defective‚ includes measurements outside of our accuracy spec plus stated drift.
RH (Relative Humidity):
-
Accuracy: +/-†2%RH
-
Sensors: 10 to 90% 25C non-condensing
-
Calibration Drift: Typically less than +/- 0.25% per year!
To achieve stated accuracy, unit must be permitted to equilibrate to external temperature when exposed to large, rapid temperature changes and be kept out of direct sunlight.
Kestrel Bluetooth LiNK
This model includes Bluetooth LINK allowing for weather data to be transferred to your IOS or Android devise.
Rotating Vane Mount and Carry Case
This precision engineered accessory securely mounts any Kestrel 5 Series meter to any standard tripod. Once mounted, the Kestrel 5 Series becomes a full-featured weather station with a large wind vane and precision pivot that keeps the Kestrel oriented into the wind for continuous measurement and logging of wind speed, wind direction, and all other key weather parameters. The Kestrel 5 Series Vane Mount offers many improvements over the Kestrel 4 Series Vane Mount including a sturdier one-piece boom, easier assembly, more secure retention of the Kestrel meter, and the convenience of being able to also use the Kestrel mounting clip as a fixed bracket, allowing use of an extension pole for taking wind or air flow readings.
