Dimensions
Specifications – Installation and Operating Instructions
The Model 471B Digital Thermo Anemometer is a versatile dual function instrument that quickly and easily measures air velocity or volumetric flow plus air temperature in imperial or metric units. High contrast LCD display shows both selected readings simultaneously. Convenient backlight provides perfect visibility in low light conditions. Light automatically shuts off after 2-1/2 minutes to prolong battery life. Low battery warning is included. Stainless steel probe with comfortable hand grip is etched with insertion depth marks from 0 to 8 inches and 0 to 20 cm. Extruded aluminum housing fully protects electronics, yet is lightweight and comfortable to hold even when taking multiple readings as part of duct traverses. Up to 99 readings may be stored for later retrieval. An integral sliding cover protects sensors when not in use. Items included with the 471B are 9 V alkaline battery, sensing probe, wrist strap and custom carrying case.
Battery Installation
The unit is shipped with a separate 9 volt alkaline battery which must be installed before operation. Remove the two screws holding the bottom endcap in place and remove it. Connect the battery to the enclosed battery clip, observing correct polarity. Be careful not to trap the wires between the case or foam pad which retains the battery. This could make it difficult to install the battery or remove it later for replacement. Be sure the rubber gasket is properly seated in the gasket channel and replace the endcap. Note that the endcap will only fit one way because the holes are slightly offcenter. Place the “Z” shaped wrist strap clip in one of the screw recesses and replace the screws. Do not overtighten. Attach the wrist strap to the clip.
When battery replacement becomes necessary, use only 9 volt alkaline type batteries such as a Duracell® MN1604, or Eveready® 522 or equivalent. Zinc- carbon types, often labeled Heavy-Duty, are not recommended because of their shorter life and an increased potential for leakage. Alkaline batteries are a better value because they last typically up to three times longer in this device.
Low Battery Indicator
A weak battery may cause improper operation or inaccurate measurements. A low battery indicator ( ) is provided on the display to show when the battery needs to be replaced. Although the unit may appear to function and read properly, the accuracy of the readings cannot be guaranteed when the ( ) indicator is empty of power segments. Replace the battery with a fresh one. Do not leave an exhausted battery in the unit due to potential battery leakage.

clear MAX, MIN, or MEM in their respective menus.
MEMORY/UP
A singles press will retrieve stored data points in the memory. Each
successive press will scroll to the next saved memory location ST01, ST02,
etc. While in the menu, it becomes the UP button.
STORE/DOWN
A single press will store the current reading on the screen. ST01, ST02, etc.
shows in the display to indicate the memory location where the reading was
saved. While in the menu, it becomes the DOWN button.
HOLD
HOLD will appear on the home screen when the HOLD button is pressed,
indicating the process reading has been frozen.
Memory Storage and Retrieval
From the home screen, push MEMORY/UP to view all previously stored values.
