Wind direction sensor for Airports, Ports Weather Stations Output Modbus/RS485/Analog/0-5V/4-20mA

The wind direction sensor is a type of wind direction information from the wind direction arrow, feeling the external wind direction information, and transmits it to the coaxial code disk, and at the same time outputs a physical device with the corresponding value of the wind direction.

The wind direction sensor can measure the near -ground wind direction in the outdoor environment. According to the working principle, it can be divided into photoelectric, voltage, and compass types. Usually used with wind speed sensor.

The wind direction sensor is composed of wind cups, sensor main body, circuit module, transmission cable and other devices.

The wind cup of the wind direction sensor is usually manufactured by high weather, high strength, corrosion and waterproof metal;

The subject of the sensor uses aluminum-magnesium alloy forming, and the internal circuit is sprayed with three-proof paint treatment to adapt to the harsh environment; the circuit module has extremely reliable anti-electromagnetic interference capabilities and high and low voltage protection capabilities, which can ensure that the host is at -20 ° C to 60 ° C, humidity 10% to 95% of the environment work normally.

What are the applications of wind speed sensors?

1. Wind speed sensor for agriculture

In the field of agriculture, wind direction and wind speed play a very important role, from plant growth and development to pollination, playing a key role, including the spread of pests and diseases in farmland, also related to wind speed and direction.

If the wind speed is too high, it will also cause physical damage to agricultural products, such as crops falling to the ground, trees tilting, and fruits falling off. This will affect the final yield of the crop. Monitoring wind direction and wind speed in agriculture can prevent sand dunes from moving and damaging farmland, and prevent excessive wind speed from causing huge losses to crops.

2, the wind speed sensor for meteorological monitoring

Ground wind monitoring: In some special areas, such as deserts and plateaus, people will always pay attention to the changes in wind speed and direction to predict the upcoming weather, so as to make corresponding plans. This is when the wind speed sensor comes in handy, an important part of the weather station is the instrument with wind speed and wind direction sensor.

3, wind speed sensor for marine meteorology

The weather in the ocean is complex and changeable. Experienced personnel will judge the weather by observing the change of cloud cover and fluctuation of sea water over the ocean. Now with wind speed sensors, more accurate data can be detected.

In the field of marine meteorology, wind speed and direction sensors are generally not used alone; a combination of indicators is needed to judge the weather. Therefore, a series of monitoring devices such as temperature sensors, relative humidity sensors and barometric pressure sensors will be used to predict weather conditions in an integrated manner.

Wind speed sensors can be widely used in meteorology, marine, airports, environmental monitoring, airports, ports, laboratories, industry and agriculture.
