Technical Specification: USA 2

 Ordering information

 

Ultrasonic wind sensor USA-2 is designed for simultaneous measurement of horizontal wind speed and wind direction parameters as well as the acoustic temperature, without use of any moving parts. This is why there is no mechanical wear to be considered, thus reducing maintenance to a minimum. Its construction features a wide range of applications in meteorology and environment protection, e.g. with automatic weather stations, airports, research vessels, industrial plants, mobile systems etc. Thanks to its robust design and its optional heating, the USA-2 is suitable particularly for heavy duty tasks, such as wind energy measurement or measurement under extreme climatic conditions. Various simultaneously available outputs enable a high degree of flexibility in use.

The Ultrasonic Anemometer USA-2 is a two dimensional Ultrasonic Anemometer for applications where just the horizontal wind is required. The system offers the data output on serial data line RS232 or RS422.An analogue data output
and a sensor head heating is optional available.
