Description
A portable meter is a type of measuring instrument that is designed to be easily transported and used in different locations. It typically operates on batteries or another portable power source, and may be small and lightweight for easy handling.
Portable meters can measure a wide range of physical quantities, such as temperature, pressure, humidity, and flow rate, depending on the type of meter. They are commonly used in fieldwork, industrial settings, and research environments where measurements need to be taken at different locations or in hard-to-reach areas.
Examples of portable meters include digital thermometers, handheld anemometers for measuring wind speed, portable gas detectors for detecting hazardous gases, and portable pH meters for measuring the acidity or alkalinity of a liquid. Portable meters may have built-in displays for reading measurements or may transmit data to a separate display or computer for analysis.
