Description
The WindSonic 60 is a robust, versatile wind speed and direction sensor. With no moving parts, or cups that can easily be damage, the WindSonic anemometer can be position in the grating over the mounting pit protecting a rain bucket, or where birds have previously damaged the more delicate cup anemometer. Providing consistent, useful wind data with minimal disruption or downtime.
