The
ALGE
WINDSPEED (WS2) functions with a colorimetric mass flow sensor. This
enables fast and exact wind measurement.
The miniaturzed colorimetric mass flow sensor features an exceptionally dynamic.
Based on the light involved masses of the sensors and the thermical influenced sur-
rounding, for the measurements needed, time constant will be achieved in a range of
under 1ms in dependance of the used media.
The ideal design of the wind pickup sensor and the fast reaction time for a measure-
ment guarantee that no change of wind will appear between the measurings. Viz in a
measuring for athletics, the time will be measured for 10 seconds. The more measur-
ings will follow in this time, the more exactely the average value for this period will be.
Due to the fact that no mechanical parts are used, the WS2 should never be calibrat-
ed. The calibration happens one time before delivery to the customer, after that the
device will retain its features forever. Annoyance influences through humidity or
thermal fluctuations are not excisting.
The WS2 is also supremely robust. Even a drop to the floor of the measuring unit
shouldn’t cause any functions annoyances.
It is very important, that the air supply through the tubes is always ensured in the
same way, that means that the tubes must not be plugged.
