1.<br />

1. Anemometer<br />

Get a direct reading of wind speed without the need to count revolutions with<br />

this uniquely designed, handheld or permanently fixed anemometer. As the wind<br />

blows harder, the arms move, lifting the reading bar. Grades K-8. Sh. wt. 0.29 kgs.<br />

SB25130M — $39.00<br />

2. Anemometer<br />

Demonstrates the operating principle of cup anemometers. An electric fan may be<br />

used to show speed changes with air velocity changes. This extra-sensitive, highquality<br />

model responds to wind velocities of 2 mph. Sh. wt. 0.68 kgs.<br />

SB16581M — $15.30<br />

SciQuest ® Weather Kit<br />

By Carl Pfeiffer. An inquiry-based, idea-centered, hands-on kit dealing with weather<br />

phenomena, along with the measurement and interpretation of weather data.<br />

Includes: equipment and <strong>materials</strong> needed to conduct 70 different investigations/activities,<br />

unique equipment specifically designed to permit “hands-on” investigations of ideas<br />

traditionally just talked about, durable, space-saving storage chest, replacement parts<br />

available at reasonable cost, and specific weather instrument kits available as separate<br />

items. Teacher’s guide consists of: teaching/learning guides that focus on specific ideas to<br />

be developed, illustrated instructional procedures for each investigation, blackline masters<br />

for preparing student data, activity, and evaluation sheets, and answer keys. Middle<br />

school level. Sh. wt. 4.42 kgs.<br />

SB22636M — $237.45<br />

Teacher’s Guide Only. Sh. wt. 0.57 kgs.<br />

SB23174M — $25.95<br />

Anemometer SD Card Logger<br />

Reads air velocity and temperature like a type K or J thermometer,<br />

then records the data onto standard SD cards or<br />

streams it directly to a computer. The removable SD card is<br />

easy to transport and insert into a computer’s memory card<br />

slot or SD card adapter. Uploads pre-formatted data to Excel<br />

without the need for additional software and cables. Each<br />

extremely accurate data set includes air speed, air temperature,<br />

time, and date. Features min/max, auto power off, low<br />

battery indicator, hold function, large backlit LCD display,<br />

and fast response times. Includes a fold-out tripod, carrying<br />

case, detachable probe, six “AA” batteries, instruction manual,<br />

and 2GB SD card. One-year warranty. Sh. wt. 2.25 lbs.<br />

SB48389M — $451.35<br />

Kestrel ® 1000 Pocket Wind Meter<br />

Accurate, tough, and affordable. Requires no setup — just hold<br />

it up to measure wind speed whenever and wherever needed.<br />

It can track maximum and average wind speeds along with<br />

current readings and allows you to choose the measurement<br />

units which suit your applications. Auto shutdown 30 minutes<br />

after last key press. The slip-on hard case protects the impeller,<br />

buttons, and display from damage in your pocket or toolbox.<br />

Completely waterproof and it floats. Replaceable CR2032<br />

coin cell battery (included) provides 400 hours of use. Oneyear<br />

warranty. Sh. wt. 0.11 kgs.<br />

SB31342M — $118.95<br />

Density Flow Model<br />

Bring the earth sciences to life with the illuminated density flow model. Engage your students<br />

with dramatic simulations of many of the earth’s dynamic natural processes. Students<br />

utilize scientific inquiry techniques to explore concepts related to geology, meteorology,<br />

and fresh and saltwater systems. The flow of brightly-colored fluids helps students visualize<br />

important density concepts as they relate to plate tectonics, sea floor spreading, air masses,<br />

fronts, air pressure, winds, ocean currents, thermoclines, haloclines, upwelling, El Niño, and<br />

more. The model comes with a 75-page manual which includes setup instructions, student<br />

activity masters, and answer keys. Designed to complement earth science, general science,<br />

physical science, or integrated science curriculums. Measures 44" L x 6" H x 3.75" W.<br />

Sh. wt. 11.34 kgs.<br />

Z19342M — $457.90<br />

Dwyer Wind Meter<br />

A completely reliable, precise, and practical instrument. Pocket-size, yet<br />

offers lifetime accuracy. Accuracy is ±<br />

1 ⁄2 mph on the low scale and ±3<br />

mph on the high scale. The only delicate part is the moving ball, but<br />

this is so well-protected, care need be exercised only if the instrument<br />

is disassembled. To use, just hold in hand facing the wind direction. Low<br />

scale reads to 10 mph. High scale reads to 65 mph. Sh. wt. 0.11 kgs.<br />

C09163M — $29.20<br />

Wind Vane<br />

This weather vane provides an easy way to<br />

determine wind direction for weather studies.<br />

The heavy-cast base and sturdy post support a<br />

sensitive cone bearing assembly that responds to<br />

the slightest wind. Place the “N” in the northern<br />

position and read off the direction shown by<br />

the pointer. Large red letters identify directions.<br />

Measures 6" W x 6" L x 8" H. Grades K-12.<br />

Sh. wt. 1.63 lbs.<br />

SB43543M — $23.75<br />
