Description

The 

Wind Sensor P04i-W

 records the wind-speed. The sensor is connected to the

control system WS1 or (KNX) WS1000 Color Style Connect via the P04i data recor-
der. 

Functions:

Wind measurement

: The wind strength is measured electronically and thus 

noiselessly and reliably, even during hail, snow and sub-zero temperatures. 
Even turbulent air and rising winds in the vicinity of the device are recorded

Suitable for: WS1 Color, WS1 Style, WS1000 Color, WS1000 Style,
KNX WS1000 Color, KNX WS1000 Style (each from software version 1.8) and 
WS1000 Connect. Connection via P04i data collector

Installation and commissioning

2.1. Installation notes

Installation, testing, operational start-up and troubleshooting should 
only be performed by an electrician.

CAUTION!
Live voltage! 

There are unprotected live components inside the device.

National legal regulations are to be followed.

Ensure that all lines to be assembled are free of voltage and take
precautions against accidental switching on.

Do not use the device if it is damaged. 

Take the device or system out of service and secure it against
unintentional use, if it can be assumed, that risk-free operation is
no longer guaranteed.

The device is only to be used for the intended purpose described in this manual. Any
improper modification or failure to follow the operating instructions voids any and
all warranty and guarantee claims.

After unpacking the device, check it immediately for possible mechanical damage.
If it has been damaged in transport, inform the supplier immediately.

The device may only be used as a fixed-site installation; that means only when as-
sembled and after conclusion of all installation and operational start-up tasks and
only in the surroundings designated for it.

Elsner Elektronik is not liable for any changes in norms and standards which may
occur after publication of these operating instructions.

2.1.1. Installation location

Select an installation position on the building where the sensor can measure wind
without hindrance. Please ensure that the extended awning does not cast shade on
the unit, protects it against the wind.

At least 60 cm of clearance must be left around the device. This facilitates correct
wind speed measurement without eddies. This also prevents birds from biting it.
The wind sensor must not come into contact with water.

The installation position should prevent the wind sensor from being touched by
people.

2.1.2. Sensor position

ATTENTION!

Sensitive wind sensor.

Remove the protective transport sticker after installation.

Do not touch the sensor on the wind measuring element 
(on bottom, recessed).

2.1.3. Attach mount

First, assemble the mount for wall/pole mounting. Release the screw joint of the
mount with a cross-headed screwdriver.

There must be at least 60 cm clearance 
to other elements (structures, cons-

The device must be attached to a ver-
tical wall (or a pole).

Place the supply line in a loop before 
leading it into the wall or junction box. 
This will allow rain to drip off and not 
drain into the wall or box.
