Cup Anemometer with Analog Display
Product Code : LSK-PMP-11167
Cup Anemometer with Analog Display (SKU LSK-PMP-11167) is a portable instrument that gives a direct reading of wind speed on a moving analog meter. Three plastic cups on a vertical spindle turn on a ball bearing, and the meter needle follows the speed of rotation. It serves school weather stations, geography fieldwork and science classes. Science Lab Supplies is the manufacturer, producing it at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and dealing directly with schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Key construction points of the analog cup anemometer are laid out in the table. In short, it is a portable unit in which three plastic cups on a vertical spindle rotate on a ball bearing, and wind speed is read directly from a moving-needle analog meter rather than counted or calculated.

Applications and Experiments for the Cup Anemometer with Analog Display
In open air the cups spin with the wind and the meter needle swings to the corresponding speed. Watching the needle rise and fall in gusts helps students see how variable wind is, while steady readings can be logged at fixed times for a school weather record or a geography field study.
- School geography and science: measuring wind speed in weather lessons and outdoor fieldwork.
- School weather stations: logging speed with direction shown by a Wind Vane that rotates with minimum friction.
- Weather records: noting wind speed together with air pressure on a Metal Barometer.
- Physics demonstrations: showing how the meter responds as a fan's airflow is increased or reduced.
Hold or mount the instrument away from walls that shelter it, protect the meter from knocks, and keep it dry.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Cup Anemometer with Analog Display is supplied as one portable instrument, comprising the three plastic cups on their vertical spindle and ball bearing together with the analog meter, as described above. Optional mounting parts or accessories are listed on the quotation if you ask for them.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotes are prepared for one anemometer or several for a class or field team, setting out packing, delivery time and price for exactly that quantity. Other weather instruments, such as a wind vane or barometer, can be included on the same quotation.
Thanks to its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies is able to ship to buyers in Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Malaysia. Prices can be requested through the contact page or by adding products to the enquiry cart; the lab tender page explains how tender enquiries are handled.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is wind speed read on this anemometer?
It gives a direct reading on a moving analog meter. The three plastic cups turn the spindle on its ball bearing, and the needle shows wind speed without any revolution counting or calculation by the student.
Why choose an analog meter over a digital display?
A moving needle shows changes in wind speed as a continuous sweep, which makes gusts easy to see in a lesson. A cup anemometer with a digital display is also available for those who prefer numerical readings.
Can it be taken outdoors for fieldwork?
Yes. It is a portable cup anemometer, so it can be carried to playgrounds, rooftops or field sites. Keep it dry and protect the meter from knocks while it is being moved.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
Science Lab Supplies makes the analog anemometer at its Saha, Ambala premises, so the firm that quotes the instrument is the same firm that produces it. There is no wholesaler or agent in the chain.
