The T24-WSS constantly monitors average wind speed and uses a low power mode between transmission which provides exceptional battery life in excess of 12 months in the field. It has a wireless range of up to 800 m (2,600 ft) and is supplied pre-calibrated for ease of use.
The wireless wind speed transmitter (anemometer) features a high quality 3-cup rotor in a rugged enclosure, providing rolling average wind speeds between 5 mph to 125 mph. It will also measure gusts at user defined periods of 1, 3, 5 or 10 sec. Wind speed measurement is available in m/s, fps, mph, km/h or kn.
The output value of the anemometer comes pre-calibrated and can be configured to the user’s requirements and measures over the range 5 to 125 mph.
Accuracy:
• 0.5 mph from 5 to 10 mph
• ± 4% from 10 to 125 mph
The T24-WSS is powered either from internal batteries or an external supply. For applications which require high sampling rates for long periods Mantracourt’s Power Pack1 and Solar Panel1 (PP1 & SP1) offers an ideal solution.
*Check operating temperature of D Cells intended for use.
**Maximum range achieved in open field site with the T24 acquisition module at a height of 3 metres (9.8 feet) above ground and T24-HS held at chest height pointing towards the acquisition module. Specification at 3V supply at 25°C
