PCE-VA 20 ANEMOMETER

What is the PCE-VA 20 Anemometer and why choose it?

The PCE-VA 20 anemometer from PCE INSTRUMENTS is a versatile vane anemometer designed to measure air velocity, air flow, air temperature, relative humidity, dew point and wet bulb temperature. With optional flow hoods, it can also determine volumetric air flow. Its compact size, low weight and integrated functions such as extreme value measurement, data hold, automatic backlight and auto power-off make it a comfortable instrument for mobile use.
