The VENTUS-X features an additional transducer heater for the most extreme environmental conditions! The anemometer measures wind speed and direction according to WMO guidelines and provides barometric pressure.
Unlike conventional anemometers, the ultrasonic measuring principle works without wear-prone mechanical parts. Serial or analog data output is available as instantaneous values, average values (arithmetic or vector), or minimum/maximum values with a variable sampling rate. The device is automatically heated if necessary at critical ambient temperatures. The heating capacity ensures reliable operation even in cold climates. The device is particularly suitable for wind turbines, shipping, meteorology, and building automation. The following outputs/protocols are available: NMEA, UMB-ASCII, UMB-Binary, MODBUS (ASCII, RTU), SDI-12, 4...20mA, 0...10V, 0...20mA, 2...10V, analog frequency.
