Below -15°C [-4°F], accurate readings may be taken by keepingthe unit warmer than -15°C [4°F] and exposing it for the minimum timenecessary to take a reading (less than one minute).Auto Shutdown: 30 minutes after last key press.EnvironmentalButtons: Two sealed tactile rubber buttons control all functions.Battery: User-replaceable CR2032 coin cell. Typical life, 800 hrs.Sealing: Electronics enclosure IP67 – water resistant to 1 m. [3 ft.]. Floats.Shock: Drop tested to 2 m. [6 ft.].Storage Temperature: Prolonged exposure to temperatures below -20°C[-4°F] or above 80°C [176°F] may cause permanent damage.PhysicalImpeller: 25 mm. [1 in.] diameter, sapphire bearings, light weight. User-replaceable impeller/housing assembly.Temperature Sensor: Hermetically sealed precision thermistor.Case: Slip-on case prevents damage to display and moving parts.Dimensions: 122 x 42 x 14 mm. [4.8 x 1.7 x 0.6 in.]; case, 117 x 46 x 19 mm.[4.6 x 1.8 x 0.7 in.]; lanyard, 0.5 m. [10 in.].Weight: Unit, 43 g. [1.5 oz.]; case, 23 g. [0.8 oz.].5) Measure wind speed, max andaverage: Simply point the unit intothe air flow you wish to measure.Measure tempe rature and windchill: The Kestrel’s temperature sensoris located in the right opening belowthe impeller. Because it is external tothe case, you can take fast and accuratemeasurements by simply waving the unit rapidly back and forth ORholding it into an air flow of at least 1 M/S [2 KT, 4 KM/H, 2 MPH or 197FPM] and reading the display immediately. (The air flow ensures thatthe temperature sensor measures the temperature of the air, not thecase.) Alternatively, you can take accurate readings with no air flowby allowing the case to reach the same temperature as the surroundingair. (If the case is much warmer or cooler than the air, this can take upto 30 minutes.)KTKnotsM/SMeters perSecondMPHMiles perHourKM/HKilometersper HourFPMFeet perMinute(x10)BBeaufortForce°CDegreesCentrigrade°FDegreesFahrenheit***NOTE***Select temperature orwind chill mode tochange degrees.The Kestrel turns itself offautomatically after 30 minutesof no button presses.Scale Range ResolutionKT, M/S, KM/HMPH, °C & °F 0.0-199.9 0.1FPM 0-1,999 12,000-19,990 10% 0-100 1Kestrel ® 2000 Pocket ThermoWind Meter Wind Speed, Maximum and AverageWind Speed, Temperature and Wind ChillOPOPOPOPOPERERERERERAAAAATIONTIONTIONTIONTION1) Slide off Cover. 2) Turn On: Press [ON] to turn onunit.®WWWWWARRARRARRARRARRANTANTANTANTANTY REGISTRY REGISTRY REGISTRY REGISTRY REGISTRAAAAATION ON RETION ON RETION ON RETION ON RETION ON REVERSEVERSEVERSEVERSEVERSEPLEASE CLIP AND MAILPLEASE CLIP AND MAILPLEASE CLIP AND MAILPLEASE CLIP AND MAILPLEASE CLIP AND MAIL
