7.6 Mounting the 03301 vane
The 03301 wind vane has three mounting options:
l
No Mounting (option –NM) is used when the 03301 will be replacing an existing 03301
within a Wind Sentry Set.
l
Pipe Offset Mount (option –P) is used when the 03301 will be deployed on its own next to
an anemometer that already has its own mount. With this option, the 03301 mounts to a
crossarm using the CM220 mount or 3/4 x 1 inch Nu-Rail fitting.
l
03101 Conversion Kit (option –SM) is used when the 03301 will be mounted next to a
previously purchased 03101 Anemometer (Wind Sentry Anemometer). This conversion kit
includes the crossarm and other hardware to mount both sensors to a common crossarm
as if they had been purchased originally as a complete Wind Sentry Set.
8. Sensor maintenance
Every month do a visual/audio inspection of the anemometer at low wind speeds. Verify that the
propeller and wind vane bearing rotate freely. Inspect the sensor for physical damage.
