CSAT3B Three-Dimensional Sonic Anemometer

applications that require correction for a moving measurement platform (on a
buoy or ship, for example), a separate fast-response inclinometer, gyrometer,
and accelerometer sensor should be used and sampled at the same rate as the
CSAT3B wind measurements.
The outputs of the CSAT3B integrated inclinometer can be viewed by
connecting the USB data cable (pn 30179) to the CSAT3B and a computer
computer running Campbell Scientific’s
Device Configuration Utility
. It can
also be output using the CRBasic instruction CSAT3BMonitor. See Section
, for more information about setting this
instruction.

positive rotations of pitch and roll angles
7.5 Additional Fast-response Sensors
7.5.1 Fine-Wire Thermocouple
A fine-wire thermocouple (model FW05 with a FWC-L cable, TC cover, and
TC cover backplate) can be mounted to the side of the anemometer block to
measure temperature fluctuations.
First, attach the thermocouple (TC) cover backplate to the CSAT3B with the
screw that was included. Next, attach the female connector from the FWC-L to
