Please note: These units will come with a "Certificate of Conformance" from Kestrel, however, in general this does not constitute a formal calibration certificate.
The Kestrel 5500 is a handheld, compact and robust environmental meter and data logger that has distinct monitoring functions for wind direction using a digital compass. The addition of the vane mount allows the Kestrel 5500 to measure crosswind and headwind/tailwind. Also comes installed with Kestrel's Link software.
This model is installed with Kestrel's Link software. It is designed to quickly and easily configure your data transmission frequency, download logged data, graph data and transfer data to other applications. It is no longer necessary to purchase an interface separately, the new Kestrel Meters with Bluetooth include the software necessary to communicate wirelessly at a range of up to 100 feet with a clear line of site.
A dongle is required to use all of the features of this model (sold separately under related accessories).
