Economic to use, WindSonic is ideal for accurate wind measurement in applications such as agriculture, HVAC, pollution control, yachting, portable and roadside weather stations and tunnels.

WindSonic is based on an existing highly successful, ultrasonic technology. Ideal for applications that demand economic wind sensing, WindSonic is suitable for land-based and marine environments.

A lightweight unit, WindSonic is of a robust, high strength construction, designed to withstand installation and use with no fear of the damage commonly experienced with the more fragile cups, vanes or propellers. Without the need for expensive on-site calibration or maintenance and with a corrosion free exterior, WindSonic is a true fit and forget unit.

The flexible design enables you to easily configure WindSonic to deliver the information you require. By using the software provided it is possible to select the output rate and chose the units of measurement that suit your application. Ensuring accuracy and reliability, WindSonic automatically transmits an anemometer status code to indicate its operating status.

Available in three options, providing a number of different digital and analogue outputs, WindSonic is supplied with NMEA and RS232 digital output as standard.

Maintenance free, quick and easy to install, WindSonic is designed to be mounted using a standard pole fitting and comes complete with all screw fittings, a mating marine grade connector and comprehensive user manual.
