    3. About the instrument With this air speed meter (or anemometer) you have acquired a preci- sion instrument of exceptional quality. You also obtain the benefit of our many years’ experience in measuring physical data on running paper machine clothing. All probes have been calibrated in a wind tunnel and are checked to conform to the required tolerances.

    3.2 Working principle The Feltest AirSpeed/2 works with a vane or propeller anemometer as the propeller has proofed to be more accurate and durable than a ther- mal anemometer in the harsh environment of a paper machine. The propeller speed, directly corresponding to the flow rate, is sensed electronically without inducing any reaction force and is transmitted to the read out unit.
