Rugged Wide Operating Range
Overview
The Met-One 013A Heavy Duty Wind Speed Sensor has been specifically designed to accurately and reliably measure wind velocity under the most adverse environmental conditions. Read MoreImages
Detailed Description
The sensor has a range of 0-150 mph with an accuracy of 2% and a starting threshold of 1.0 mph. A unique feature of the Model 013A is a built-in ice skirt which allows sensor operation with a 2" ice load. The sensor is supplied with an extremely robust aluminum cup assembly which has a distance constant of less than 15 feet.
Maximum operational reliability is ensured by the use of a sealed magnetic reed switchwhich produces a series of contact closures at a rate proportional to wind speed. The pulsed output of the sensor lends itself to applications involving both digital and analog measurement systems.
