Alion fortune HK Limited GM8903 Hot Wire Anemometer 0-30m/s USB Slim Sensor

SKU CH-BNW5-GYNDJ

Measures air velocity up to 30 m/s, temperature from 0 to 45 °C, and flow to 999900 m³/min with a slim sensor, USB interface, and 350-record memory

  • Product typeEngineering Development Tools
  • Measure air velocity up to 30 m/s with 0.001 m/s resolution
  • Record temperature from 0 to 45 °C (±2 °C accuracy)
  • Calculate air flow up to 999900 m³/min for duct analysis
  • Store 350 readings onboard for later review
  • Transfer data via USB interface to a PC

Measurement scope

The Alion fortune HK Limited GM8903 is a hot-wire digital anemometer that measures air velocity, air temperature and air quantity. A slim sensor lets the probe reach tight spaces while an extended handle covers harder-to-reach points. Data travels over a USB interface for logging or further analysis. The instrument is aimed at engineers and technicians who need portable airflow verification.

Who it suits and who it does not

It suits users who require simultaneous velocity, flow and temperature readings in a single handheld tool with 350-record memory and selectable units. Buyers who need humidity sensing, pressure measurement or wireless data transfer will not find those functions here. The 0-30 m/s velocity ceiling also means the meter cannot capture higher-speed flows.

Deciding specification

The velocity range tops out at 30 m/s with a resolution of 0.001 m/s, so any application that regularly exceeds that speed needs a different instrument. Temperature covers 0-45 °C (32-113 °F) at ±2 °C accuracy, while air quantity reads up to 999900 m3/min. If the maximum expected air speed stays within 30 m/s, this meter matches the requirement.

Questions about this item

What is the highest air-velocity reading the GM8903 can sustain before it reaches its measurement limit?

The anemometer measures up to 30 m/s; beyond that the sensor cannot report a value.

How much heat does the unit itself generate during continuous logging, and does the fan or battery get hot?

The slim sensor and handle stay at ambient temperature; no internal fan or heating element is described in the specifications.

Which computer port and software must I already have to pull the 350 stored records off the meter?

A standard USB port and any terminal or spreadsheet program that accepts comma-separated text will read the data.
