Supco EM20 Thermo-Anemometer is a compact, trade-tough airflow & temperature meter for HVAC pros. Ideal for quick checks at grilles and diffusers, it helps you diagnose airflow issues faster and cut call-backs. Built for Aussie job sites—no dramas.

• Velocity range 80–4000 fpm (≈0.4–20 m/s) — covers typical supply/return outlets so you can verify design airflows on the spot.
• Temperature range −10 °C to 50 °C — capture temp alongside velocity to explain hot/cold complaints in one pass.
• Multiple units (fpm, m/s, mph, km/h, knots, Beaufort) — match site specs and client reports without fiddly conversions.
• Backlit LCD + Data Hold — grab stable readings in roof spaces and plantrooms; no torch juggling.
• Auto power-off — saves batteries on long service runs.
• Hard carry case included — protects your meter in the van between jobs.

Why This Product Matters

Ever been on a summer call-out where the client swears the new split “just isn’t pushing air”? You hop up, it’s nudging 40 °C on the roof, and you need a quick, fair dinkum check at the outlet. The EM20 gives you instant velocity and temperature so you can show the numbers, adjust dampers if needed, and be on your way.

Pro Tip

For more reliable results at grilles, take multiple readings across the face and average them. That’s in line with Australian balancing practice, which recommends a series of readings because duct/terminal airflow is non-uniform. Too easy.

Compatibility & System Info

• Use at diffusers, registers, and return grilles on residential & light commercial systems.
• Great for commissioning checks, maintenance, and fault-finding.
• If you need in-duct traverses and L/s auto-calc, consider a dedicated hot-wire anemometer like Fieldpiece STA2 (linked below).

Local note: Whether you’re balancing an office in Sydney humidity or chasing airflow on a Brisbane roof in the arvo sun, the EM20’s backlight and data-hold make life easier—she’ll be right.

FAQs

Does the EM20 calculate L/s or CFM automatically?
It reads air speed and temperature. To estimate volume flow, measure outlet free area and multiply by average velocity, or use a model with built-in L/s calc/hot-wire probe (see Fieldpiece STA2 below).

Is it suitable for balancing?
For quick checks at grilles—yes. For full TAB, follow multi-point methods and consider hot-wire or pitot traverses per Australian practice.

Can I use it outdoors?
It’s designed for HVAC tasks; protect the instrument from rain and heavy condensation to maintain sensor accuracy.
