With a Kestrel anemometer how do you correctly measure vacuum air flow? What face do you use?

Hello,

In order to maintain that the wind speed readings will be within spec, you should face the front of the unit towards the vacuum. You won't be able to see the screen though, so i would probably suggest using our Min/Max/Avg page for the readings. You can press start for Min/Max/Avg, take the reading and press stop for Min/Max/Avg and turn the screen around to see the results.

Regards,
