Pacemaker Energy Wind Speed & Direction Sensor
A sensor designed to measure both wind speed and wind direction with high precision. Suitable for applications in wind energy, meteorology, and environmental monitoring.
- Measurement Range:
- Wind Speed: Typically ranges from 0 to 60 m/s (meters per second) or 0 to 130 mph (miles per hour).
- Wind Direction: Measures from 0° to 360° with high accuracy.
- Accuracy:
- Wind Speed: ±1% of reading or better.
- Wind Direction: ±3° or better.
- Response Time: Fast response to changes in wind speed and direction, typically within milliseconds to seconds.
- Output Signals:
- Analog Outputs: Standard voltage or current signals (e.g., 0-10V, 4-20mA).
- Digital Outputs: RS485, Modbus RTU, or other communication protocols for integration with SCADA systems.
- Operating Temperature Range: Designed to function reliably in a wide range of temperatures, typically -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F).
- Durability: Built to withstand harsh weather conditions, including high winds, rain, and extreme temperatures.
- Mounting Options: Includes options for pole or mast mounting, with adjustable brackets for precise alignment.
