Plastic Wind Speed Sensor with Analog Output
The Plastic Wind Speed Sensor, also known as an anemometer, is an essential component of a weather station. Its function is to measure wind speed and convert it into an electrical signal in m/s.
This sensor is designed to measure horizontal wind speed independently of its direction. Its measurement system is based on a reed switch, activated by a rotating magnet connected to the anemometer cups.
The Plastic Wind Speed Sensor with Analog Output is compatible with all dataloggers, gateways, and PLCs that have an analog input. It is supplied with a mounting system and a cable for easy installation.
Additionally, a heating option is available for use in locations where there is a risk of ice formation.
