MEASUREMENT NOTES

MEASUREMENTS

Barometric Pressure Trend

   : indicates pressure is rising quickly (> 

+0.18 inHg) in 3 hours

 : indicates pressure is rising (0.06 

and +0.18 inHg)

 : indicates pressure is stable (remains 

between -0.06 and +0.06 inHg)

 : indicates pressure is dropping (within 

-0.06 and -0.18 inHg)

  : indicates pressure is falling quickly (> 

-0.18 inHg)

Water and Snow Temperature

The Kestrel Meter may also be used 
to measure the temperature of water 
and snow. Submerge the thermistor 
portion (curly exposed wire in window 
next to impeller) in water or snow 
to get an accurate reading. Kestrel 
Meters are completely waterproof 
and can be safely submerged in water 
according to IP-67 standards (up to 1 

meter for a maximum of 30 minutes).

Backlight

•  Press   to activate the backlight for 10 

seconds.

•  Press   again to manually deactivate 

the backlight before 10 seconds expire.

 

Compass Accuracy

The accuracy of the compass can be 
affected by:

•  Compass calibration: Refer to 

calibration instructions.

•  Local magnetic fields: Metal 

objects and devices emitting 
electric signals may influence the 
compass accuracy.

•  Rapid Movements

Confirm that the accuracy of the compass 
in the measurement environment is suitable 
for your purposes.
