Cup wind sensor WSS100

compactRS-485

WSS100 Wind Speed Sensor adopts a rotating chopper disc, which cuts the infrared sensor 45 times per one rotation, measuring resolution up to 0.1m/s, the maximum tolerance  ±0.5m/s, and the output signal can be directly connected to the data acquisition system through RS485 or photoelectric isolation pulses. It can be widely used in meteorology, ocean, environment, airport, port, agriculture, transportation and other fields. WSS100 is compact and exquisite in shape, featured with robust wind cups, an unique aero-cone design and efficient heating method, suitable for all kinds of harsh environments. Measuring range: 0.5m/s~65m/s Starting threshold: < 0.5 m/s Characteristic transfer function: U=0.031×R+0.3(U=wind speed[m/s], R=output pulse frequency [Hz],scale factor 0.031 and background value 0.3 can be modified by command) Accuracy: ±0.5m/s Resolution: ±0.031m/s Outer diameter of the mounting pole mast: 50mm/52mm Operating power: Vin=5~24VDC 20mA (typical value) Heating power: 12VDC 1A (nominal value) Output: RS485, Photoelectric isolation pulse Output level: high state≈Vin low state≈0 V Operating temperature when heating: -50~55℃（-58~131°F） Storage temperature: -60~70℃（-76~158°F） Material: Housing: Aluminum alloy Wind cup: Black glass fiber nylon Dimensions: 240 (H) × 182 (Ø) mm Swept radius of wind cup: 64mm Wind cup diameter: 54mm Weight: 500g
