The Elcometer 410 Anemometer (part number G410-1) is a portable, pocket size instrument for taking accurate readings of wind speed. A lightweight impeller running on high precision jewel bearings gives accurate airflow measurement even at low speeds, and the impeller can be replaced in the field without returning the unit to Elcometer.
Wind speed is one of the climatic conditions that determines whether outdoor coating, spraying or surface preparation work can proceed: applying paint in the wrong wind can cause overspray, contamination and a failed finish, so a reliable on-site reading informs the decision to go ahead or wait. The Elcometer 410 Anemometer measures over an operating range of 0.4 to 60m/s, with a specification range of 0.4 to 40m/s and on-axis accuracy of ±3% of the reading or the least significant digit, whichever is greater. Readings can be shown in knots, metres per second, kilometres per hour, miles per hour, feet per minute or Beaufort Force, and display modes cover current 3 second average speed, average since power on and the maximum 3 second gust.
The Elcometer 410 Anemometer is made from high impact injection moulded plastic and corrosion resistant materials, is waterproof to IP67 with fully sealed electronics, and will float if dropped. The clear LCD uses large 9mm digits, the Elcometer 410 Anemometer runs on a CR2032 lithium coin cell, and at 65g it is easily carried on site. Used by coatings inspectors and applicators working outdoors, the Elcometer 410 Anemometer is supplied by BAMR, South Africa's authorised distributor.

When to use the Elcometer 410 Anemometer
Inspectors use the 410 to confirm wind speed before coating, spraying or other outdoor work where conditions affect the result. It is a pocket instrument for a quick, accurate reading on site rather than a fixed weather station.
- 1Survives outdoor site useWaterproof to IP67 with sealed electronics and a body that floats if dropped, so it keeps working in the wet conditions where wind checks matter.
- 2Accurate at low speedsThe jewel bearing impeller gives accurate airflow readings even at low speeds, which matters when you need to confirm conditions are within limits before starting.
- 3Reads in the units you needKnots, m/s, km/h, mph, ft/min and Beaufort Force are all selectable, so the figure can be matched to whatever the job spec calls for.
- 4Field serviceable impellerThe impeller can be replaced on site without returning the unit to Elcometer, avoiding lost inspection time.

Frequently asked questions
What wind speed range does the Elcometer 410 measure?
The operating range is 0.4 m/s to 60 m/s. The specification range, within which the stated accuracy applies, is 0.4 m/s to 40 m/s. Readings can be displayed in knots, m/s, km/h, mph, ft/min, or Beaufort Force (0 to 12).
What accuracy can I expect from the Elcometer 410?
On-axis accuracy is plus or minus 3% of reading or the least significant digit, whichever is greater. Off-axis response introduces additional error: -1% at 5 degrees, -2% at 10 degrees, and -3% at 15 degrees. Calibration drift is less than 1% after 100 hours of operation at 7 m/s.
What measurement modes does the Elcometer 410 provide?
The instrument displays current wind speed as a 3-second average, the average speed since power-on (AVG), and the maximum 3-second gust since power-on (MAX). A data hold function is also included.
How long does the battery last and what type does it use?
The Elcometer 410 is powered by a single CR2032 lithium coin cell. The instrument switches off automatically approximately 300 hours after power on, or 45 minutes after the last key press.
What are the operating temperature limits of the Elcometer 410?
The instrument operates between -10 degrees C and +55 degrees C. Storage temperature range is -30 degrees C to +60 degrees C.
