The Mid-High temperature anemometer for the precise measurements of airflow in extreme conditions
The Model 6162, is a unique anemometer designed for specialized, high-temperature testing. Some of the primary applications of a mid-high temperature anemometer include:
Drying Process Control: Consists of the removal of water or another liquid via evaporation. In most cases, an air flow applies the heat by convection and then carries away the released water vapor (humidity). The process is often used in food processing industries to dry the product prior to packaging.
Why it’s so important: Improper airflow or heating can result in undesirable outcomes. Some materials will be rendered useless if the drying process is not done precisely. This is true for everything from dehydrated/dried fruits, nuts, meat, ramen, etc., to non-food industries such as film, pharmaceutical applications, and LED panel manufacturing. Even slight variations in food products can render them unsalable or even harmful to consumer health, and can cause warping or other distortion in other products resulting waste due to damage.
Forming Process Control: Like drying, but maintaining a smooth, evenly distributed airflow is critical. Any significant deviations in the air flow or temperature can result in warps, cracks and other imperfections in the finished product. When producing precision products in which imperfections are unacceptable, errors in the forming process will result in significant manufacturing losses.

Our anemometers are hot-wire (thermal) anemometers. Basically, it measures the air speed by calculating how fast the sensor is being cooled by the air.
The principles behind all hot-wire anemometers may be the same, but the quality varies. Simply put, with our temperature compensation sensor, our Climomaster is the most accurate with an accuracy of +/- 2%.
This is due to several factors:
Annual calibration is recommended to ensure accuracy. However, this can vary based on how often the anemometer is used and the environments it’s used in. Also, some companies have an SOP in place that specifies how often the instrument will need to be serviced. More specifically, regulatory compliances may dictate the calibration interval.
You can measure clean air between 32 and 752°F (please see the specifications for exact details as each probe is different) in an environment with no visible condensation. (NOTE: the high temperature probes can measure temperature up to 932°F, but air flow can only be measured up to 752°F.)
No, these are thermal anemometers that generate heat when in operation; if you expose them to a flammable gas it could cause a fire or explosion. Corrosive or caustic gases, such a chlorine, will damage the sensor on contact. While it is possible to use the instrument in a non-flammable, non-caustic gases the instrument is not calibrated for these gases and it will not measure airflow accurately.
We offer three different probes. 0203 is our mid-temperature probe, it’s rated for temperatures between 32 and 392°F. Probes 0204 and 0205 are high-temperature probes that can measure air flow between 32 and 752°F. The 0204 probe is 1000mm long, while 0205 is 500mm long. All the probes come with a case, cable to attach it to the 6162 and a NIST certificate.
No, the probes (0203, 0204 and 0205) can only be used with model 6162. You need to order both 6162 and at least one of the probes: 0203, 0204 & 0205.
No. Unfortunately these options are built into the main unit and must be ordered with the unit. They cannot be added later.
