Review & Description
The Kestrel 3500 Delta T wind meter takes all the great features of the Kestrel 3500 and adds in an additional useful reading- Delta T. The delta T is the spread between the wet bulb temperature (in degrees C). Delta T offers a quick guide to determining acceptable spraying conditions. For example, it is not recommended to apply pesticides when Delta T is above 10- a range of 2-8 is ideal. With the Kestrel 3500 Delta T, the calculation is done for you, accurately and simply. The unit incorporates barometric pressure correction in its wet bulb temperature calculation, ensuring accuracy even on low pressure days, at high altitudes, and in the very dry weather when Delta T monitoring is important. No other pocket weather meter offers this feature with this level of accuracy.Designed specifically for agricultural professionals, the Kestrel 3500 Delta T provides Delta T readings, which is the spread between the wet bulb temperature and the dry bulb temperature, offering a quick guide to determining acceptable spraying conditions. In addition to calculating Delta T, the Kestrel 3500 Delta T also provides the same critical data available on the Kestrel 3500 Wind Meter, though subtracting wind chill and heat stress index.
In addition to the Kestrel 3500 Delta T's unique agricultural calculations, it also has the advantage of altitude and barometric pressure measurement. With these features on hand at any time, the Kestrel 3500 Delta T becomes an ideal weather instrument.
The Kestrel 3500 Delta T's easy to use menu system scrolls through each of its environmental measurement conditions. It has an external temperature sensor with a waterproof casing that allows you to gauge the temperature of water, snow, and the open air. The sensitive and user-replaceable impeller technology provides accurate wind speed info, and a hard slide-on case, lanyard, and battery are included. It accurately measures:
- Air, Water and Snow Temperature
- Altitude
- Average Wind Speed
- Barometric Pressure
- 3-hour pressure trends
- Current Wind Speed
- Delta T
- Dewpoint
- Maximum Wind Gust
- Relative Humidity
- Wet Bulb Temperature
Note that the Kestrel 3500 provides a complete range of weather measurements, but does not log accumulated data like the more high-tech weather meters of the Kestrel 4000 series.
