ANTC - V3.1 RS485 MODBUS

Wind sensor with cups

Anenometer cups with RS485 MODBUS output for industrial applications ACCREDIA certificate

ANTC - V3.1 RS485 MODBUS

The series ANTC has been designed and built for industrial applications, in particular:

  • Measurements for wind turbines
  • Historical analysis of data logger
  • Control thresholds for wind and solar sails solar trackers

Applications

Applications
  • Cranes and Mobile Cranes
  • Buildings and general structures
  • Photovoltaic solar trackers
  • Wind turbines
  • Weather Stations
  • Irrigation systems
  • Automated greenhouses
  • Cable cars for ski plants
  • Cannons snow
  • Telescopic cranes
  • Platforms self-mounting
  • Structures for playgrounds
  • Ornamental fountains
  • Pressostatic structures
  • Highway tunnels and viaducts


However, it is used in any area where they are necessary features of reliable, robust and accurate. The body of the rotor is machined aluminum. The head rotates on ball bearings. The cups are made of nylon shock-absorbent and easily interchangeable.

It also has a connector for convenient connection. The generation of pulses is via optical transducer, a digital encoder with 12 pulses per revolution.

Each transducer is tested in a wind tunnel equipped with a calibration certificate.

It runs on request, a periodic calibration and calibration product.


Thanks to the MODBUS protocol, installation and data display is even easier, in particular:

  • Immediate integration into various supervisory, control and automation systems
  • Open specifications that do not require hardware constraints
  • Reliable communication between automation devices
  • Interoperability between devices from different manufacturers

  • Storage temperature from -30°C to +80°C
  • Nylon Cups interchangeable reinforced by the hail, resistant from -40 ° to + 120 ° - Diam. 30mm

Electrical Features

  • Power supply from 12 to 24 Vdc
  • Output signal: MODBUS digital
  • Current max consumption 15 mA
  • Measuring range of mechanical minimum 0km/h, maximum 200km/h
