Description
The WindSonic 75 is a robust versatile wind speed and direction sensor with a wind speed range of 0-75m/s. Requiring very little maintenance and with no moving parts, or cups that can easily be damage, the WindSonic 75 Ultrasonic anemometer can be position in less accessible areas to take wind readings clear of obstructions. The RS485 Modbus RTU output option allows the output to be connected with other RS485 Modbus sensors on a single site. This can be especially useful for building management systems were lots of different environmental parameters maybe collected from all over the building. This can include air temperature and humidity sensors, both inside and outside the building, heating and air conditioning systems or renewable energy systems.
