SENSOR CALIBRATION Impeller The Kestrel impeller calibration drift is less than 1% after 100 hours of use at 16 MPH | 7 m/s. Drift increases with higher-speed use. For most users, the impeller will provide accurate wind speed/air flow readings for years if not physically damaged. However, if your application requires extremely high precision or if you perform frequent high-speed readings, we recommend you replace your impeller at one-year intervals.
