WindCom - Compact Anemometer
The wind sensor measures and transmits the horizontal wind speed. The measured values are available at the output as digital signal to control for instance wind power plant. However, with the resp. design, it can be used as input signal for data loqqers or alike.
An electronically-regulated heating system has been installed for wintertime use, in order to prevent the ball bearing and the external rotation parts from freezing. Power for the heating system could be provided for instance by our Power Supply.
When using fastening adapters (angle, traverses etc.) please notice that turbulences could possibly influence the characteristic curve.
Construction and mode of operation
The wind velocity is recorded by means of a low-inertia plastic cup star the ballbearing axis of which is connected to a slotted disk or cup wheel. The external parts of the instruments are made of corrosion-resistance material (plastic) resp. the aluminium housing is additionally protected by means of an anodic coat. Labyrinth sealing protect sensitive parts inside the instrument against humidity.
