Wind Gauges WNZ, WN, WMSC

new: Wind gauge NOWA --> NOWA

new: Wind gauge WNZ37 --> WNZ37

The WNZ Windgauge has been replaced by the new WNZ37 windgauge.
WNZ and ONZ is still available for replacement in older systems, also the servicable parts will remain available until end of 2013

Triple component wind gauge WNZ	Dual component wind gauge WN	Cup anemometer WMSC

Description

Our wind gauges WN and WNZ measure the east/west and north/south wind components thus allowing the most important horizontal wind velocity to be determined. The WNZ model measures the vertical component as well. WMSC is a high-quality cup anemometer suitable for applications where only the wind speed and not its direction is of interest. As the propellers or cups revolve, the rate of rotation is measured using high frequency initiators which allow operation without direct contact, free from feedback effects. As a result, the sensors react very well to the slightest air movements.

The bearings and the sensor electronics are heated to prevent condensation and freezing of the mechanism. Both the mechanical and the electronic plug-in units can be assembled with ease. This is especially advantageous when the sensors are used in exposed locations. All the components are constructed from stainless steel or plastic.

Both sensors are mounted on an approx. 1.2 m high tubular mast. The connection box is mounted at the base of the mast. This box contains the electronics, the heater control (thermostat) and the lightning protection circuits.

The wind gauges are protected against the effects of lightning and power surges.

The output signal connected with a watertight plug.

Data Processing and Interface to Data Collecting Unit (PC)

This series of wind gauges includes a microprocessor, which processes the pulses of the sensor electronic and calculates wind speed and direction.

Depending from the type of calculation, the wind gauges stores up to 4000 data sets.

The wind gauges can be controlled and configured over the serial interface (RS232 or RS485). It is possible to build a multipoint connection between several wind gauges, other meteolabor sensors and one data collecting unit (PC).
