Introduction
WCaution
To extend sensor life, keep the sensor’s
protective shutter closed whenever the meter is
not in use.
The Fluke Model 971 (hereafter referred to as “the Meter” is
a battery powered meter that measures relative humidity and
temperature. Through a few easy to use controls, the Meter
displays three different temperature points of the air
surrounding the meter’s sensor: ambient, wet bulb, and dew
point.

Operation
Note
When moving from one temperature/humidity
extreme to another, allow time for the Meter to
stabilize.
After opening the sensor’s protective shutter, press Oto turn
on the Meter and start taking measurements.
Temperature readings are displayed in either the
Celcius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F) scale. To switch between °C
and °F, remove the battery compartment door and position
the temperature scale switch to the desired scale. See
Figure 1.
Dew Point and Wet Bulb Temperature
The Meter displays ambient temperature when first turned
on. To display dew point (DP) temperature, press Wonce.
Press Wagain to switch to wet bulb (WB) temperature.
Pressing Wa third time returns the Meter to ambient
temperature. The display indicates when dew point and wet
bulb temperatures are selected.
HOLD
Pressing Icauses the meter to freeze the displayed
readings. It also causes the meter to stop taking
measurements. His displayed when HOLD is enabled.
To continue taking measurements, press Iagain.

Min Max Record
When enabled, Min Max Record stores a new measurement
when it is either higher or lower than a previously stored
maximum or minimum measurement. Press Nto start Min
Max Record. Mappears in the display to indicate Min
Max Record mode is enabled.
Note
The temperature scale switch (°C/°F), Save, Recall,
and Hold buttons, as well as the Automatic Power
Off (APO) switch are all disabled when Min Max
Record is enabled.
To view the stored Minimum, Maximum and Average
readings, press Nrepeatedly to cycle through all three
stored sets of measurements. You must select wet bulb, dew
point, or ambient before reading their respective Min Max
Avg values. The display indicates which stored set of
readings is displayed. Pressing Na fourth time displays the
present measurement.
To exit Min Max Record mode and resume normal operation,
press and hold Nfor two seconds.
Saving and Recalling Measurements
The Meter stores up to 99 readings for later recall. Each
memory location stores relative humidity as well as ambient,
dew point and wet bulb temperatures.

Pressing Ssaves the present readings to a memory
location. Land the memory location number appear in
the display to indicate the readings have been stored. Press
Wto return the display to the present reading. After all 99
memory locations are filled, each subsequent save
overwrites a memory location starting with the first.
To recall the readings from memory, press R. If the
memory location you are looking for is not already displayed,
press ▲or ▼until the desired memory location is displayed.
To return the Meter to normal operation, press Rfor two
seconds.
By default, relative humidity and ambient temperature are
displayed when a memory location is recalled. Pressing W
cycles through the Wet Bulb, Dew Point, and Ambient
temperatures stored in the memory location displayed.
To erase all 99 memory locations, simultaneously press S
and Rfor five seconds.
Automatic Power Off
To save battery life, the Automatic Power Off (APO) feature
can be used to turn the meter off after 20 minutes of no
activity. To enable or disable the APO feature, remove the
battery cover and position the APO switch to the desired
position. See Figure 1.
