Handheld Meters

 

Portable, Reliable Measurements

Handheld meters make measurements portable and reliable.
Handheld meters make it convenient to log and spot check data using reliable Apogee sensors.
E-Paper Screen
The display utilizes e-paper technology, which mimics the experience of reading physical print by reflecting ambient light instead of emitting its own light. This allows the screen to be readable in bright lighting and at a wide viewing angle. E-paper also allows for a long battery life as it only uses power when the image changes.
 
Onboard Storage
The meter can store up to 100 samples at a time, which is ideal for spot-checking or field work. It also can store up to a month’s worth of 5-minute averages in data logging mode. The meter will continue collecting data according to the selected logging settings while in sleep mode.
 
Customizable Settings
Customize the screen timeout length, calibration settings, active modes, and the averaging interval. The various meters are also built with settings and information specific to the sensor type (such as DLI data or calculating the barometric pressure based on elevation).
 
Standard USB-C Port
One cable can be used to recharge the battery, download the stored data logs, and update the firmware yourself. Simply plug the meter into a computer and access its files through the built-in USB navigation—no additional software needed.
 
Intuitive User Interface
On-screen explanations and straightforward menus keep navigation simple. Info like battery percentage and icons showing current meter modes are displayed at the top of the screen.
