Metrix+ AVM 05 Digital Anemometer 0.4-45m/s Air Velocity Meter

A. Product Overview

The Metrix Plus AVM 05 is a handheld digital anemometer used for measuring air movement and airflow conditions in ventilation, HVAC and industrial systems.

It uses a separate air velocity sensor and provides multiple measurement functions in one portable instrument.

The AVM 05 can measure:

• Air velocity from 0.4 to 45.0 m/s
• Air velocity in m/s
• Air velocity in km/h
• Air velocity in ft/min
• Air velocity in knots
• Airflow in CMM
• Airflow in CFM
• Air temperature from 0 to 60 degree Celsius
• Beaufort scale
• Wave height

Important functions include:

• Digital air velocity measurement
• Airflow measurement
• Temperature measurement
• Multiple velocity units
• CMM airflow calculation
• CFM airflow calculation
• Data hold function
• Maximum value function
• Storage for up to 24 groups of measurements
• RS 232C communication interface
• Separate air velocity sensor
• Portable handheld design
• Four AAA battery operation

These functions make the AVM 05 suitable for technicians who need to evaluate air movement, ventilation performance and airflow conditions.

B. Working Principle

The Metrix Plus AVM 05 measures air velocity using an air movement sensor.

When air passes through the sensor, the movement of the air is detected and converted into an electrical signal.

The internal electronics process this signal and calculate the corresponding air velocity.

The result can be displayed in different units such as:

• Meters per second
• Kilometers per hour
• Feet per minute
• Knots

For airflow measurement, the instrument uses the measured air velocity together with the entered or selected area information to calculate volumetric airflow.

The airflow result can then be displayed in:

• CMM, cubic meters per minute
• CFM, cubic feet per minute

The instrument also measures air temperature, allowing the technician to check both airflow and temperature during the same inspection.

The meter can store up to 24 groups of readings and also provides an RS 232C interface for data communication.

C. Why It Is Used

The Metrix Plus AVM 05 is used when air velocity or airflow needs to be measured in ventilation, air conditioning or industrial systems.

Correct airflow is important for HVAC system efficiency, indoor comfort, ventilation performance and proper operation of air handling equipment.

A digital anemometer allows technicians to measure actual air movement instead of estimating airflow manually.

The AVM 05 can be used for:

• HVAC system inspection
• Air conditioning maintenance
• Ventilation system testing
• Air duct velocity measurement
• Airflow balancing
• Air outlet testing
• Air inlet testing
• AHU inspection
• Exhaust system testing
• Fan performance checking
• Industrial ventilation testing
• Building maintenance
• Cleanroom airflow checking
• Laboratory ventilation inspection
• Preventive maintenance
• Facility management
• Environmental testing
• Wind speed measurement
• Air temperature measurement

The CFM and CMM functions are especially useful for technicians who need volumetric airflow values rather than only air velocity.

D. Suitable Buyers

The Metrix Plus AVM 05 is suitable for professionals and organizations involved in air conditioning, ventilation, airflow testing and industrial maintenance.

Typical buyers include:

• HVAC technicians
• HVAC contractors
• Air conditioning service engineers
• Ventilation contractors
• Facility management companies
• Building maintenance teams
• Mechanical engineers
• Industrial maintenance engineers
• AHU manufacturers
• Fan manufacturers
• Air conditioning equipment manufacturers
• Cleanroom professionals
• Pharmaceutical facilities
• Laboratories
• Manufacturing plants
• Environmental testing professionals
• Service engineers
• Commissioning engineers
• Quality control departments
• Industrial contractors

It is particularly suitable for users who need air velocity, CFM, CMM and temperature measurement in one portable meter.
