Wind Direction Transmitter ”First Class“

Part number: 4.3151.00.401

  • Description

    4.3151.xx.xxx
    The wind transmitter is designed for the acquisition of the horizontal component of the wind direction in the field of meteorology and environmental measuring technology, evaluation
    of location, and measurement of capacity characteristics of wind power systems.

    • Digital output RS 485 /­ Modbus RTU
    • With integrated heating
    Special characters are a defined and optimised, dynamic behaviour as well as:
    • High measurement accuracy and resolution
    • High damping with small distance constant
    • Low starting value
    • Low power consumption
    • Simple mounting

    The measuring value is available at the output as digital signal. The output signal can be transmitted to display instruments, recording instruments, data loggers as well as to process control systems.

    Characteristic:
    The WD transmitter can acquire the WS signals of 4.335x.x.000, and add the parameter wind speed to its serial data telegram

    Geovane

    4.3190.00.900

    Geovane


    The product set combines the precise wind vanes from Thies CLIMA with the advanced Geovane from Kintech Engineering. The Geovane uses GPS and the sun position to automatically determine the exact north direction 1° accurate. This combination ensures the highest accuracy of wind direction against the geographic north point as a reference.

    • Geovane for automatic north correction
    • 1° precise wind vanes from Thies CLIMA
    • Wind vane and geovane are preconfigured
    • Ideal e.g. for site surveys, power curve monitoring and meteorology
