Windsonic 4 Anemometer - Black
Overview
A lightweight unit, the WindSonic Ultrasonic Anemometer, manufactured by Gill Instruments, is of a robust, high strength construction. Without the need for expensive on-site calibration or maintenance, and with a corrosion free exterior, WindSonic is a true fit and forget unit.
Providing accurate results in all weather conditions, WindSonic exhibits a number of distinct advantages:
- Consistent performance throughout life (no accuracy degradation due to wear of moving parts)
- Corrosion free, UV resistant material
- Low start speed (0.01 m/s, 0.09 knots)
- Maintenance free
- No calibration required
- Robust construction
- Software configurable
- Status code output
- True 0-359° operation (no dead band on direction output)
- Wind speed and direction from a single unit
