One unit device for industrial application
Ultra sonic sensor for wind speed and direction
WUS4423 measures the wind movement by using ultrasonic transducers to detect speed and direction in one unit. Using this principle avoids wear and tear. It generates RS485 MODBUS signal.
WUS4423 has been designed to be used in industrial applications. It measures the wind speed and direction and normally is connected to PLCs or similar devices, examples:
- Irrigation control system
- automation in greenhouses
- solar trackers
- ropeways at ski resorts
- cranes
- wind turbines
- weather stations
- all those applications that contribute to a greater control and greater security.
Operation
Wind speed measurement up to 160 km/h
Survival speed: 200 km/h of wind speed.
It gives a RS485 MODBUS signal output. (see modbus section).
The WUS4423 must be oriented to north as shown in the mounting section to obtain a correct output.
The unit must be fixed on a vertical position
