Portable Anemometers.<br />

These instruments are extensively used in<br />

studying and controlling the ventilation of<br />

dwellings, public buildings, factories, mines,<br />

etc.<br />

The velocity of the air current is measured<br />

by means of a very light fan wheel, whose<br />

revolutions are recorded on a dial.<br />

This fan wheel is very delicate, the vanes<br />

being made of aluminum, and the axis of hard<br />

steel runs in j^wel bearings.<br />

The counting mechanism is enclosed in a<br />

dust-pro~f case, and can readily be thrown<br />

into or out of action by a disconnecting lever.<br />

The instrument is provided with a thumb-<br />

serew for attaching it to a rod for use in measuring<br />

the velocity of air currents at any point<br />

on the surface of the earth, mine shafts, in<br />

pipes, conduits or narrow channels. In this<br />

case the c -anting mechanism is thrown in or<br />

out of gear by pulling on cords of different<br />

colors.<br />

This A nemometer is carefully rated and supplied<br />
