The WindUltra series represents a specialised class of ultra-compact, solid-state meteorological instruments engineered to calculate precise two-dimensional horizontal wind speed and direction. By executing acoustic time-of-flight calculations down to precise picosecond differentials across fixed internal orthogonal pathways, these sensors deliver instant velocity updates without the bearing wear, mechanical inertia, or aerodynamic lag of traditional cup-and-vane hardware.
The WindUltra mirrors the top-down reflective signal bounce geometry of the WIndSonic, but features an integrated thermostatically controlled heater, as standard. Ensuring the transducers are ice free, even down to -40°C. What truly isolates the WindUltra from alternatives like the WindSonic or WindObserver is its revolutionary mechanical mounting architecture: the entire low-profile sensor unit can be quickly detached from its separate mounting adaptors. This quick-release engineering allows for seamless, tool-less swaps during servicing or transit, while still maintaining an expansive 0–75 m/s measurement range and IP66/IP68/IP69K sealing.
This specific engineering profile makes the WindUltra the definitive choice for critical infrastructure where size, weight, and extreme structural durability are non-negotiable. It is routinely deployed on mobile meteorological masts, tactical military tripods, unmanned aerial or surface vehicles (UAVs/USVs), and high-exposure coastal perimeter tracking arrays.
Omni Instruments delivers WindUltra systems tailored to your project requirements. Sensors are available for direct commercial purchase or pre-configured, field-ready instruments built into complete environmental monitoring stations.
The WindUltra is a compact ultrasonic anemometer providing wind speed and direction data into a serial RS485, Modbus, NMEA and SDI-12 output.The WindUltra is a small, lightweight (0.27kg) sensor and covers a wind speed range up to 75m/s. The WindUltra sensor locks into a 1" or 2" Pole Mounting adaptor, allowing for a quick and easy installation. WindUltra has a robust design, accurate measurement capability, and is easy to install and use.
