The 010C Wind Speed Sensor provides accurate and detailed information on horizontal wind

speed. The lightweight three-cup anemometer is used in virtually all applications where fast

response and low starting threshold are of paramount importance.

The 020C Wind Direction Sensor provides azimuth data for use in micrometeorological

measurements related to operational studies and research. The lightweight airfoil vane is

directly coupled to a single precision potentiometer. These sensors are especially useful

when a low starting threshold, a high damping ratio, or a short delay distance is required.

Both wind speed and wind direction sensors are used in environments ranging from Antarctic

cold to arid desert. The 010C, 010C-1 and 020C instruments meet USEPA and NRC specifications

for critical measurement applications. See ‘ALTERNATE WIND SENSORS’ under specifications.

Reliability

The 010C and 020C are made of stainless steel and

anodized aluminum components and are functionally

more reliable than any other sensors of their kind:

reduces problems associated with static fields,

near-miss lightning hits and poor grounding

systems

(AC use only) provides positive clean aspiration

through the bearings, thereby greatly increasing

sensor bearing life

applications where freezing rain, ice and low

wind speeds may be encountered
