Wind Speed Sensor
The sensor is delivered with a bracket support that allows the sensor to stay perpendicular to the
ground through the boom angle range.
CONTACT CRANE MANUFACTURER FOR WELDING INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO WELDING
ON BOOM.
The mounting pole is affixed to the boom tip at your discretion so that the anemometer sensor is
mounted approximately a foot higher than the boom sheaves and will not interfere or be damaged by
hoist lines or extension mounting or movement. Affix the mounting pole to the boom tip or possibly the
length cable anchor pin so the pipe supports the sensor. It must be installed so that no part of the
crane can disrupt the measurement of wind.
