FT702LT/D Flat Front Wind Sensor Manual
Poor quality electrical connections
Lightning exposure
Problematic environmental conditions or combination of conditions
Typically higher levels of wind speed and wind direction data availability are achieved through the use of an
additional FT sensor or an additional mechanical or ultrasonic sensor. Control strategies or controller
algorithms, which compensate in whole or in part, for any temporary interruption of data from individual sensors,
should also be applied. The choice and implementation of such methods is entirely the Purchaser’s
responsibility.
1.5 Disclaimer
There are no warranties, representations or conditions, expressed or implied of any kind given in this manual for
any particular design application. The Purchaser should independently undertake sufficient testing to confirm
validity and suitability of any design. The Purchaser assumes all risks and liability in conjunction with the use of
the information given.
Any warranty given by FT Technologies in respect of the Equipment is conditional upon the sensor being
handled, installed, integrated and operated in accordance within the guidelines given in this manual.
FT Technologies can take no responsibility for the effectiveness of any sensor lightning protection scheme
implemented. The wind sensor has passed a wide range of EMC tests but FT Technologies does not warrant
the sensor to survive direct lightning strikes.
