Extech AN300 Large Vane Thermo-Anemometer
The Extech AN300 Large Vane Thermo-Anemometer is built for quick and accurate airflow checks in HVAC systems, process lines and ventilation work. Its large 100 mm vane helps reduce turbulence effects and gives stable readings in wide ducts. At the same time, the built-in thermometer lets users check air temperature without changing instruments.
Designed for field work, the meter measures air velocity from very low air movement through to fast airflow applications. It also calculates airflow volume in both CFM and CMM, helping engineers balance systems and complete reports faster. A clear dual-line display shows values in real time and keeps important data easy to read.
Fast Airflow Measurements
Because the Extech AN300 Large Vane Thermo-Anemometer combines several functions in one handheld unit, technicians can move from one test point to another with less effort. MIN, MAX and AVG modes make it easy to monitor changing conditions. In addition, the hold function keeps readings on screen for later recording.
The instrument uses four standard AAA batteries and includes automatic power-off to extend operating life. Its light 200 g design reduces fatigue during long inspections and fits easily into a tool bag. The included hard case also protects the meter during transport between jobs.
Built for HVAC Professionals
Extech AN300 Large Vane Thermo-Anemometer is suitable for commissioning, maintenance and research applications where dependable airflow data is required. The fast response sensor reacts in seconds, allowing engineers to identify comfort issues and heat loss quickly. Switching between metric and imperial units is also simple with a single button press.
Two different set types are available within the range. The AN310 model adds humidity, wet bulb and dew point measurement, while the AN320 model includes the same functions plus carbon dioxide monitoring. This makes the range suitable for a wide variety of environmental testing tasks.
