Application
Application of 8996 AZ Pocket Air Flow Measuring Devices with Compass:
The pocket size 8996 AZ Air flow Meter has the Swiss knife shape, which could be opened with 90 degree on the tripod, or 180 degree fully opened to handle easily.The pocket-knife design makes it convenient and portable, easy to use and to get a precision reading.
The 8996 AZ wind speed meter can measure the Wind Speed, Windchill, Temp., Humidity, Dew point and Wet bulb temperature.
The Windchill temperature is referred to as the “feels like” temperature. It is based on the rate of heat loss from exposed skin caused by the effects of wind and cold. As the wind increases, the body is cooled at a faster rate causing the skin temperature to drop. Wind Chill does not impact inanimate objects like car radiators and exposed water pipes, because these objects cannot cool below the actual air temperature.
The 8996 AZ Windchill Anemometer is the best choice as the wind speed monitoring device in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning), industrial related application, Agriculture.
The 8996 AZ Anemometer also has the compass function which could be met with Outdoor Activities usage, ex: golf, surf, hang gliding…etc.
The 8996 AZ Anemometer was being designed and manufactured by AZ Instrument, a well experienced manufacturer of Air Flow Meter.

FAQ: AZ 8996 Compass Anemometer
Q1: Why is the AZ 8996 better for sailing and shooting than regular meters?
A1: The AZ 8996 stands out by integrating a Digital Compass with wind sensing. Most mini anemometers require a separate compass to find wind direction; the 8996 allows you to determine precise wind orientation and velocity simultaneously, all within its unique foldable protective housing.
Q2: Why choose the AZ 8996 over fixed-head anemometers?
A2: Its unique foldable "Swiss-knife" design protects the impeller from dust and impact when closed. Combined with an IP65 waterproof rating, it offers superior durability in harsh conditions compared to standard meters.
Q3: What if the fan gets damaged or stuck?
A3: Unlike disposable alternatives, the AZ 8996 features a user-replaceable impeller. You can simply swap the fan component rather than replacing the entire device. This modular design extends product lifespan and ensures long-term accuracy, making it a cost-effective and sustainable choice for professionals.
