For
those of you who like to know just how cold and
windy it really is, the Kestrel 2000 Pocket Wind
Meter is your reality check. Whether contemplating
which wet suit the cold water warrants, or checking
to see how low the wind chill can go in the blind,
the Kestrel 2000 is the easy-to-use tool you need.
Winter sports enthusiasts around the world love
Kestrel Meters. Thanks to the patented external
temperature sensor, the Kestrel 2000 can take accurate
water and snow temperature readings, and since it
is isolated from the case, you can be sure that
the temperature the Kestrel Meter is reading is
accurate and not influenced by your hand warming
the unit. Kestrel Meters kept riders and spectators
abreast of the weather conditions at the 2006 ESPN
X Games in Aspen, Colorado, and were used by the
2006 US Biathlon Olympic Team in Turin to measure
air and snow temperature to aid in ski-wax selection
decisions and measure the wind downrange.
Certified and Guaranteed Accuracy
Every
single Kestrel manufactured at Nielsen-Kellerman
is calibrated for every single value, either directly
against NIST-traceable standards or against an intermediary
standard that is calibrated daily. Every unit is
shipped with a FREE Certificate of Conformity that
states what calibrations were performed, and the
certified performance specifications.
What does that mean for the customer?
They can be absolutely sure that their weather readings
are accurate to the stated specifications. Some
competing weather instruments claim the same specifications
as Kestrel, but only Kestrel certifies their accuracy.

inch diameter impeller with precision axle and sapphire
bearings.  Off-axis accuracy -1% @ 5º off-axis;
-2% @ 10º; -3% @ 15º.  Calibration drift < 1% after 100 hours use at 16 MPH / 7 m/s.  Sustained operation above 60 MPH / 27 m/s will wear impeller rapidly and may cause destruction of impeller.  Replacement impeller (NK PN-0801) may be field-installed without tools (US Patent 5,783,753).
