Wind Speed And Direction Sensor

Product catalog summary
Overview: The McCrometer CONNECT 200-02 Wind Speed and Direction Sensor is designed for durability and cost-effectiveness, suitable for harsh environmental conditions. It is compatible with McCrometer CONNECT field monitoring stations.
Specifications:
  • Wind Speed Sensor: Measures speeds up to 99 mph with an accuracy of better than 3%. Utilizes a reed switch, 3x per revolution, with a measurement range of 0.8 to 99 mph (1.3 to 159 km/h).
  • Wind Direction Sensor: Measures 0 to 360 degrees with an accuracy of better than 3%. Utilizes a 20k Ohm potentiometer, single wiper, with a vane threshold of 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h).
  • Output Signal: Both sensors output 0 to 2.5V DC.
  • Power Supply: Voltage requirement is 6 to 12V with a current of 100 to 800uA (sleep) and approximately 20mA (wake-up) for the wind speed sensor, and 125uA for the wind direction sensor.
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40° to +140°F (-40° to +60°C), non-icing conditions.
  • Accuracy: Wind speed sensor has ± 3% of full scale, and wind direction sensor has ± 3° azimuth.
  • Connections: Cable length is 89 inches (2.26 m) with PUR jacket material and 7-pin M9 Binder male termination.
  • Construction: Made from injection molded thermoplastic, anodized aluminum, and stainless steel.
  • Dimensions: Sensor dimensions are 12.1 in. x 8.5 in. dia. x 15.1 in., with a mounting arm of 16 x 1 x 3 in.
  • Mounting: Suitable for 1.57 to 2.36 in. dia. mast (40 to 60 mm).
  • Weight: 2.5 lbs. (1.13 kg).
Ordering Information: Model 250.733.001 includes the wind speed and direction sensor with mounting arm. Optional accessories include extension cables of various lengths.
