UEI DAFM3B Anemometer with Humidity

The UEI DAFM3B anemometer measures air velocity from 99 to 3937 fpm and relative humidity from 0.1 percent with a rotating vane probe. It also records dew point down to -90 degrees F and ambient temperature with a stated accuracy of +/-1.5 degrees. The unit ships with a carrying case for field use.

Installation and common issues

Power the meter on and allow the sensors to stabilise at the minimum operating temperature of 32 degrees F before taking readings. The rotating vane must spin freely; debris or a bent vane will cause low or erratic velocity figures. Humidity accuracy is rated at +/-3 percent, so avoid condensation on the sensor element.

Practical limits of the rotating vane

The rotating vane probe diameter of 3 inches limits measurements in ducts smaller than the probe face. Air velocity resolution of 0.1 fpm is suitable for low-speed balancing but not for turbulence research. The specified range tops out at 3937 fpm, so higher-velocity systems require a different instrument.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the anemometer is reading airflow correctly after turning it on?

Point the 3-inch rotating vane probe into a known airflow and confirm the display shows a value between 99 and 3937 fpm with 0.1 fpm resolution.

What accessories are included and what must I purchase separately to start measuring?

The unit ships with a carrying case; no additional probes or cables are required for air velocity, temperature or humidity readings.

Which measurement range should I rely on for low-speed duct work versus high-velocity exhaust testing?

The instrument covers 99 to 3937 fpm in a single range, so the same device handles both low-speed duct work and high-velocity exhaust testing.
