Ultrasonic anemometers are the high tech
alternative to mechanical cup and vane sensors
for measuring wind speed and direction
All ultrasonic
anemometers provide the following advantages over mechanical sensors:
- no moving parts
- no maintenance requirements
- excellent error accuracy
- easy interface / connection to existing systems
(digital and analogue outputs available)
- automatic, averaged or polled data output
In addition the 2-axis
Wind Horizon and the 3-axis Wind Professional / Wind
Research sensors are unique amongst ultrasonic anemometers in that they have a
combination of eight extra exciting characteristics which provide real
benefits over traditional ultrasonic anemometers:
1. the sensors perform
real-time data quality checks
which means that you can have the utmost confidence in your
measurements because the validity of each ...... read more
2. the
data output from these sensors is time and date stamped
which means that you do not need to have any
additional data loggers
or other expensive equipment .......read more
3. the
sensors have a field calibration kit (optional for 2-axis models)
so you can do your own calibration checks to reassure .......read more
4. the
sensors have protected transducers housed
within the stainless
steel body so they cannot be damaged by animals or .....read more
5. the
sensors use improved, innovative heating technology
which means that the sensor can be effectively heated using
relatively
low power.......read more
6. the
sensors are extremely robust which means they
are suitable for
use in harsh conditions due to their immensely rugged
stainless steel
construction.....read more
7. the
sensors output sonic (virtual temperature). Sonic temperature is
the ambient temperature minus the impact of .....read more
8. the
3-axis sensors can be customized to suit your requirements
which
means that you can have an anemometer built for your application
without paying for features which you do not need .....read more
