Thermo-Anemometer (Product Code: SLE/LI/27) is a handheld digital meter used to measure air velocity, such as wind speed or airflow from fans and vents, in science classrooms, field studies and laboratories. Physics, geography and environmental science teachers use it because it reads from 0.4 to 30 m/s in five selectable units on a large backlit colour LCD. This pocket-sized member of our digital measuring instruments range is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

In lessons on weather and climate, students hold the meter into the wind at different heights or locations around the school and compare readings, then convert between m/s, km/h and knots to link their data to weather reports. Indoors, the same meter shows how air speed changes across a fan, at an air-conditioning vent or at the opening of a fume cupboard, which makes airflow and ventilation topics measurable rather than abstract.
The MAX/MIN record captures gusts that are too brief to read by eye, and data hold freezes a value so it can be written down. Face the sensing end squarely into the airflow, hold it still for a few seconds while the 300 ms updates settle, and take several readings to average. Turn auto power off back on after long logging sessions to save the batteries.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, supplies this compact air velocity meter to schools, colleges, environmental science departments and dealers in India and international markets. It can be added to a wider order of classroom and laboratory instruments so that one quotation covers the whole list. Read more on the ScienceLab company profile.
Airflow and weather measurements are often taken alongside temperature and humidity readings, or in wind-tunnel practicals. These products complement the meter:

What does the Thermo-Anemometer measure?
The Thermo-Anemometer measures air velocity from 0.4 to 30 m/s and shows it in m/s, ft/min, km/h, MPH or knots. Its name indicates a temperature function, but the listing gives no temperature range, so please ask us to confirm this before ordering.
How accurate is the Thermo-Anemometer?
The Thermo-Anemometer has a stated air velocity accuracy of ± 3% or 0.3 m/s, with a resolution of 0.1 m/s and a display update every 300 ms. Equivalent accuracy figures are listed for km/h, MPH, knots and ft/min.
What batteries does the Thermo-Anemometer use?
The Thermo-Anemometer runs on three AAA batteries, which are included, with an average life of about 60 hours of continuous use. A low battery indicator warns when replacements are needed, and auto power off after 15 idle minutes can be enabled or disabled.
Can the Thermo-Anemometer be used outdoors?
Yes, the Thermo-Anemometer is rated for operation from -20 to +60 °C at 10 to 90% relative humidity, which covers most outdoor field work. Store it at 10 to 75% relative humidity and keep it dry between sessions.
How big and heavy is the Thermo-Anemometer?
The Thermo-Anemometer measures 178.5 × 56 × 30.5 mm and weighs 114.5 g with its batteries fitted, so students can carry it easily on field trips. Its 30 × 28 mm colour LCD is backlit for reading in shade or low light.
Who supplies the Thermo-Anemometer?
The Thermo-Anemometer is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana. Schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets can request a quotation directly from the company for single meters or class sets.
