Fieldpiece STA2 Hot Wire Anemometer
Fieldpiece STA2 Hot Wire Anemometer
The Fieldpiece STA2 Hot Wire Anemometer is a high-precision in-duct airflow diagnostic instrument designed for HVACR professionals performing air balancing, duct traversing, and ventilation performance testing. It calculates air velocity, temperature, and volumetric airflow without requiring a bulky capture hood by allowing technicians to enter duct dimensions directly into the meter. The 950 mm telescoping probe features depth markings and flat alignment edges for accurate positioning inside ductwork, while the sensitive micro-glass bead thermistor helps deliver stable readings in variable air streams. With a dual display, compact handheld design, and rugged protective case, it is ideal for commissioning, troubleshooting, and system verification.

KEY FEATURES
- Professional in-duct hot-wire anemometer engineered for dynamic HVACR air balancing work
- Calculates volumetric flow rates directly in litres per second (L/s) based on user-defined duct area data
- Extended 950 mm telescoping probe simplifies internal multi-point duct traversing parameters
- Laser-etched depth rulings and flattened side edges ensure perfect probe alignment within air streams
- Highly sensitive micro-glass bead thermistor module suppresses erratic air turbulence reading effects
- Bright, easy-to-read dual display isolates combos of velocity, volume flow, or air temperature
- Supplied complete with a heavy-duty, blow-molded plastic hard case for optimal tool protection
The Fieldpiece STA2 Hot Wire Anemometer delivers streamlined efficiency during systematic velocity traversing operations inside commercial and residential air distribution networks. By bypassing standard, cumbersome capture hoods, technicians can instantly determine real-time delivery capacities simply by punching physical duct metrics directly into the intelligent onboard processing interface. The slim profile of the premium sensor tip enters through minor drill holes easily, making this diagnostic system an invaluable asset for certifying system performance, commissioning balanced air loops, and locating structural delivery restrictions.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
- Hands-free testing design increases technician safety when working on elevated ladder frames
- Ultra-fine velocity resolutions down to 0.01 m/s (1 fpm) pick up minor air stream movements
- Integrated temperature thermistor sensor tracks thermal process conditions concurrently from -20°C to 60°C
- Smart Auto Power Off (APO) function preserves battery cells after 15 minutes of device inactivity
- Visual over-range notifications quickly flag extreme air velocity spikes using clear "OL" displays
- Precision factory calibration yields dependable field performance across variable climate conditions
- Ergonomic, lightweight handheld configuration slips comfortably into standard tool bags
