This document introduces the characteristics of the 8906 thermo-anemometer, including a one-handed integrated rotary vane sensor, simultaneous display of air velocity and temperature, up to 2 hours of continuous moving air velocity averaging measurement, display of minimum/maximum/average velocity and temperature values, multi-point averaging up to 8 points, calculate average velocity values in seconds, and selectable wind mode.
This manual explains how to operate the Reed Instruments 8906 thermo-anemometer, including single-point and multi-point air velocity measurements, continuous averaging, and unit selection. It also covers RS232 output configuration and battery replacement. The device features a rotary vane sensor, LCD display, and auto power-off after 20 minutes.
