Wind Speed Smart Sensor(S-WSB-M003)

Overview

Measure wind speed from 0 to 76 m/s (0 to 170 mph). This smart sensor provides data reporting average wind speed and highest 3 second gust for each logging interval. The starting threshold is 1 m/s (2.2 mph); sensor survives through 170 mph. This model comes with a 3m cable.

NOTE: an M-CAA Full Cross Arm or a M-CAB Half Cross Arm is required for mounting.

Interested in wireless sensors? The wireless Wind Speed and Direction sensor is available for use with the HOBOnet Field Monitoring System.
