Introduction WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU Law on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment According to the European WEEE Directive, electronic equipment may not be disposed of in domestic waste. Their components must be recycled or disposed of separately, because toxic and hazardous components can cause lasting damage to the environment if not disposed of properly.
Introduction 1 Introduction Description The Hydromette® BL LG 17 is a high-precision air velocity measuring device (anemometer) for measuring even the smallest air flows for many areas of application, e.g. living space monitoring, air conditioning technology, blower-door test, laminar-flow control etc.
Introduction Display Symbols Pressure setting Manual / Automatic Measurement menu symbols Battery symbol Air velocity in m / s Absolute air pressure in mbar Compensation temperature in °C Measured value is retained; ready for measurement Hydromette BL LG 17 ®...
Basic Functions 2 Basic Functions Switching on the Device / Standby Mode The device is switched on by pressing the "On" button. The following is shown on the display if no air velocity sensor is connected: “No sensor”. The device does not function without connected air velocity sensor.
Basic Functions Display in Measuring Mode Measured value in m/s or ft/min Measured / manual pressure in mbar Compensation temperature in °C "Hold" symbol signals readiness to make a measurement A measurement process is started by pressing the "M" button. The "Hold"...
Basic Functions Menu Guidance Pressing the "Up" or "Down" button in standby mode takes you to the main menu. Use the "Up" button and the "Down" button to navigate through the menu. The selection of a menu item is performed by pressing the measurement button.
Basic Functions 2.3.1 Measurement Menu The last measurement with the note "Hold" is shown here. A new measurement can be started in this menu by pressing the "M" button. During the measuring process, the "Hold" symbol disappears from the display. After releasing the "M" button, the measured value is saved.
Basic Functions 2.3.3 Flow Rate Main menu Settings ( ) Surface ( ) maximum value display A diameter or two edge lengths of an air duct can be entered for the calculation of the flow rate. flow rate measurement deactivated in this menu (selection option "none"), the air velocity is displayed again.
Basic Functions 2.3.5 Units Setting Main menu Settings ( ) Units ( The units system can be changed from metric ("m/s") to Imperial ("ft/min") in this menu. 2.3.6 Languages Setting Main menu Settings ( ) Language ( Language selection options: ...
Basic Functions 2.3.7 Brightness Setting Main menu Settings ( ) Brightness ( The brightness of the display can be adjusted in steps. It must be noted that the current consumption increases with higher brightness and thus the operating time reduces. 2.3.8 Alarms Limit Value Main menu ...
Basic Functions 2.3.9 Compensation Temperature Main menu Settings ( ) C.Temp. ( factory setting compensation temperature for the air velocity is 20 °C. Under this menu item, the temperature setting for the compensation of the air velocity can be manually adapted to the actual local conditions.
Basic Functions 2.3.11 Minimum / Maximum Value Display Main menu Data ( ) Min / Max ( The minimum and maximum measured air velocity values of a measurement series are displayed in this menu. The display of the minimum value and maximum value is only possible for the air velocity value.
Basic Functions 2.3.13 Measurement Mode Display Main menu Data ( ) Graph ( The air velocity is displayed either as graphs or as bars. This allows the measured variable to be recognised more quickly. 2.3.14 Graph Measurement Mode Main menu ...
Basic Functions 2.3.15 Bar Measurement Mode Main menu Bar ( ) Start ( The bar display of the air velocity measured value enables fast visual feedback for the measured value. The bar measurement is started and stopped by pressing the measurement button.
Basic Functions Other Functions 2.4.1 Automatic Switch-off If no button is pressed within approx. 5 minutes, the device switches off automatically. The current values are retained and are displayed again after the device is switched on again. 2.4.2 Battery Monitoring The battery must be replaced If the battery symbol is shown empty ) on the display.
