Output: 4-20 mA
Range: 0-360° (352° electrical, 8° open)
Sensitivity: 1 m/s (2.2 mph)
Accuracy: 1% of full scale
Operating Voltage: 10-36 VDC
Current Draw: Same as sensor output
Warm Up Time: 3 seconds minimum
Operating Temp: -40° to +131°F (-40° to +55°C)
Sensor Size: 8 1/2 inch diameter x 10 1/2 inch (21.5 cm dia. x 26.7 cm)

Weather Sensors Installation
|
|
Proper siting for weather sensors is important to ensure accurate readings. For example, wind sensors should not be installed
too close to a building, as turbulence created by the building can interfere with readings. The Solar Radiation sensor should
be installed in direct sunlight on a level surface (bubble level and leveling screws are included with purchase).
Purchase of both the Wind Direction and Wind Speed sensors includes a T-mounting bar with a 1" stainless steel coupling unit and
allen wrench for easy allen set screw instalation. Individual wind sensors or solar radiation sensors include 1 inch stainless
steel elbow couplers and an allen wrench. The Solar Shield (with a stainless steel elbow coupler) can be used for protection
and easy installation of the Temperature and Humidity sensors. The Barometric Pressure sensor can be mounted with straps for a
variety of applications (including inside a datalogger or to a display for hand-held use).
