Wind Speed
Units of Measure:	mph \| kt \| B \| m/s \| ft/min / km/h
Specification Range:	0.6 to 40.0 m/s 118 to 7,874 ft/min 2.2 to 144.0 km/h 1.3 to 89.5 mph 1.2 to 77.8 knots 0 to 12 B* 2-131.2 F/S*
Operational Range:	0.6 to 60.0 m/s 118 to 11,811 ft/min 2.2 to 216.0 km/h 1.3 to 134.2 mph 1.2 to 116.6 knots 0 to 12 B* 2-196.9 F/S*
Resolution:	0.1 m/s 1 ft/min 0.1 km/h 0.1 mph 0.1 knots 1 B
Accuracy (+/-):	Larger of 3% of reading, least significant digit or 20 ft/min
Notes:	1 inch\|25 mm diameter impeller with precision axle and low-friction Zytel® bearings. Startup speed stated as lower limit, readings may be taken down to 0.4 m/s \| 79 ft/min \| 1.5 km/h \| .9 mph \| .8 kt after impeller startup. Off-axis accuracy -1% @ 5º off-axis; -2% @ 10º; -3% @ 15º. Calibration drift < 1% after 100 hours use at 16 MPH \| 7 m/s. Replacement impeller (PN-0801) field installs without tools (US Patent 5,783,753). Wind speed calibration and testing should be done with triangle on impeller located at the top front face of the Kestrel. *F/S only in Ballistics units. Beaufort not available in Ballistics units.
Ambient Temperature
Units of Measure:	Fahrenheit, Celsius
Specification Range:	-20.0 to 158.0 °F -29.0 to 70.0 °C
Operational Range:	14.0.0 to 131.0 °F -10.0 to 55.0 °C
Resolution:	0.1 °F 0.1 °C
Accuracy (+/-):	0.9 °F 0.5 °C
Notes:	Hermetically sealed, precision thermistor mounted externally and thermally isolated (US Patent 5,939,645) for rapid response. Airflow of 2.2 mph\|1 m/s or greater provides fastest response and reduction of insolation effect. Calibration drift negligible. Thermistor may also be used to measure temperature of water or snow by submerging thermistor portion into material -- remove impeller prior to taking submerged measurements and ensure humidity sensor membrane is free of liquid water prior to taking humidity-based measurements after submersion.
Pressure
Units of Measure:	inHg, hPA, mb
Specification Range:	25°C/ 77°F 750-1100 hPa\|mbar 22.15-32.48 inHg 10.88-15.95 PS
Operational Range:	0.30 to 48.87 inHg 10.0 to 1654.7 hPa\|mbar 0.14 to 24.00 PSI 14.0 to 131.0 °F -10.0 to 55.0 °C
Resolution:	0.1 hPa\|mbar 0.01 inHg 0.01 PSI
Accuracy (+/-):	1.5 hPa\|mbar 0.044 inHg 0.022 PSI
Notes:	Monolithic silicon piezo-resistive pressure sensor with second-order temperature correction. Between 1100–1600 mbar, unit will operate with reduced accuracy. Sensor may not operate above 1600 mbar and can be damaged above 6,000 mbar or below 10 mbar. Calibration drift is negligible for the life of the product.
Relative Humidity
Units of Measure:	%
Specification Range:	5 to 95% 25°C non-condensing
Operational Range:	0 to 100%
Resolution:	0.1 %RH
Accuracy (+/-):	3%RH
Notes:	To achieve stated accuracy, unit must be permitted to equilibrate to external temperature when exposed to large, rapid temperature changes and be kept out of direct sunlight. Calibration drift is typically less than ±0.25% per year.

Description

Measuring conditions quickly and accurately is essential in the field, making reliable data vital.

Quickly changing weather conditions require constant, immediate updates. Measure wind speed, temperature, relative humidity, dew point and wet bulb temperature with the Kestrel 3500NV.

Many Kestrel users need to know everything that the weather is doing, but don’t need to log the data. At the press of a button, get all the relevant conditions you need to enable yourself to shift strategies, reduce risk and ensure safety.

While the weather can dictate the comfort level of individuals working or playing outside, it plays an even bigger part in many professionals’ jobs. Irrigation professionals use the Kestrel 3500 to ensure they are irrigating efficiently and the water they are dispersing is actually hitting their intended target, and not evaporating or blowing away. On construction sites Kestrel users are preventing plastic shrinkage cracks and curing concrete more effectively with their Kestrel 3500.

Night Vision Preserving Backlight:

The Kestrel 3500NV in Olive Drab with NV has a night-vision preserving backlight which helps users to sustain natural night vision. The NV's backlight incorporates an optical filter to reduce overall brightness and minimize blue and green spectrum light to preserve night vision. Additionally, NV backlights are also much dimmer than a standard backlight, making it more difficult to detect with the naked eye in night operations. This backlight appears soft greyish pink, not red, and is still in the visible spectrum, so is not compatible with night-vision equipment.

It takes 30 to 45 minutes for the average eye to adapt to darkness and maximize night vision. Even a short burst of white, yellow, green or blue light “bleaches out” the rod cell photoreceptors in the eye and causes night blindness until the entire adaptation process can take place again. Light in the red spectrum does not cause this “bleaching out”, preventing night blindness and night vision fatigue.
