Ultrasonic Anemometer 2D Compact Plus

The Ultrasonic Anemometer compact serves for the 2-dimensional acquisition of
the horizontal components of the wind velocity, the wind direction, the air pressure and the acoustic-virtual temperature.

• Ultrasonic level adjustment for stable measurements under the most extreme weather conditions (heavy rain,typhoon...)
• Trouble-free operation even with high electromagnetic interference
• Extended self-diagnosis functions and predictive maintenance
• Icing resistance according to MIL-STD-810G Meth 521.3 2008/­10 with 48V supply

Heated components:
• base plate
• cover plate
• sensor receiving sockets
• ultrasonic transducers
 
The Ultrasonic 2D Compact Plus is a powerful wind sensor specially designed for use in extreme weather conditions. It offers general icing resistance in accordance with MIL standard 810G, making it ideal for use in areas with a high risk of icing. ideal for harsh environments.

Thanks to the adaptive ultrasonic level adjustment, this sensor delivers precise measurement results even under extreme conditions such as heavy rain and typhoons. The improved electromagnetic compatibility ensures interference-free operation even in environments with high electromagnetic interference fields. The sensor also supports advanced self-diagnostic functions for predictive maintenance to maximize operational reliability.

The following measured values are available:
• Orthogonal wind speed vectors (X and Y distance)
• Scalar /­ vectorial wind speed, wind direction
• Acoustic virtual temperature
• Air pressure (option)


The device is particularly suitable for use in
• Wind energy
• Industrial automation
• Wind warning systems, building construction and building security
• Traffic engineering, aviation and shipping
• Meteorology
• Climatology

Compared to the classic anemometer, the measuring principle allows inertia-free measurement of rapidly changing variables with maximum precision and accuracy.

Data output
• Digital in ASCII THIES format
• Binary MODBUS RTU protocol
