HOBO Wind Speed / Direction Smart Sensor
The combination Wind Speed/Direction Smart Sensor provides
average wind speed, highest three second wind gust and
average wind direction in the measurement interval.
Designed with a large surface area for high sensitivity,
the Wind Speed/Direction Smart Sensor offers high accuracy
at an affordable price. The Wind Speed/Direction Smart
Sensor is designed to work with the HOBO
Micro Station Data Logger or HOBO
Weather Station Data Logger.
Specifications:
Measurement parameters: average wind speed, highest three second wind gust, average wind direction (unit vector average)
Construction: A combination of fiberglass reinforced injection
molded thermoplastic, anodized aluminum, and stainless
steel parts contribute to reliable operation in adverse
environments.
