Wind Speed And Wind Direction Sensor
consists of three glass-coated PT100 shifted in an angle of 120
°
, which are heatet to
50-60
°
C and cooled by wind. A microprocessor calculates the wind speed on the drop
of temperature and due to the different position of the three PT100, the wind
direction as well.
Range of wind speed: in km/h from 0 to 150 km/h with a measuring accuracy of
±
2km/
h, (display also in m/s, miles/h, Knot or Beaufort), starting speed 0.6 m/s.
As we have a very comfortable, 3-fold way of measuring wind speed with current
wind speed (WG), average wind speed (WD) and wind peaks (WS), you can conform
your wind measurement to your very needs.
Please note that dependent on the current winds, the 3 different methods of
measuring wind speed can result in very differing graphs: When measuring WG,
only a current value is written in the selected measuring interval, when measuring
WD and WS, there is continuous evaluation and the whole measuring period is
monitored.
Wind direction is given in
°
, with 90
°
being East, 180
°
being South, 270
°
being West
and 0
°
being North.
Range: in 360
°
, measuring accuracy 5
°
with a starting speed by 0.6 m/s.
There is also current wind speed (WR) and a sliding average for the prevailing wind
direction (WV).
Rain/Precipitation Sensor (Option)
A self-emptying see-saw is tilted by the collected rain. All the water that has been
collected on the normed area of 200 cm
2
is led through a funnel to the see-saw. The
see-saw tilts whenever a certain quantity of water has been collected. The tilting
creates pulses which are counted. The software takes the pulses to calculate the rain
that has fallen per m
2
. The current intensity of rain is also found and displayed.
Range: from 0 to 50 mm/m
2
, measuring accuracy
±
0.1 mm/m

UV-Sensor (Option)
measures ultraviolet radiation in the range of 210-380 nm. Maximum sensitivity is
about 275nm (UV-B). What is most particular about this sensor is how it gathers
measured values. Not only does it cover radiation from above but also the lateral
radiation.
Light Intensity Sensor (Lux-Sensor) (Option)
measures light intensity in Lux. Measuring range is from 300 nm to 720 nm.
