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
