SUW1A Ultrasonic Wind Speed And Direction Sensor (for Micropower WxStn)

Description

The ultrasonic wind sensor SUW1AE has been designed for constant use in harsh weather conditions, with the MicroPower Weather Station.

The corrosion resistant anodized aluminum housing and no moving parts design, make the sensor ideal for long-term measurements with no maintenance required. Good performance in high winds as well as short response time to slight air movements provides accurate wind speed and direction measurements.
