El 05106 Wind Monitor es un instrumento ligero y robusto que mide la velocidad y dirección del viento en duras condiciones ambientales, diseñado para uso "offshore" en condiciones marinas. Fabricado por R. M. Young, este sensor de viento se integra fácilmente con nuestros dataloggers Campbell Scientific.
Leer másThe 05106 Wind Monitor-MA is made out of rigid UV-stabilized thermoplastic with stainless steel and anodized aluminum fittings. The thermoplastic material resists corrosion from sea air environments and atmospheric pollutants. It uses stainless-steel precision-grade ball bearings for the propeller shaft and vertical shaft bearings.
To make it more durable in offshore and marine applications, the 05106 has waterproof bearing lubricant and a sealed, heavy-duty cable pigtail instead of the standard junction box.
The 05106 measures wind speed with a helicoid-shaped, four-blade propeller. Rotation of the propeller produces an ac sine wave that has a frequency directly proportional to wind speed. The ac signal is induced in a transducer coil by a six-pole magnet mounted on the propeller shaft. The coil resides on the non-rotating central portion of the main mounting assembly, eliminating the need for slip rings and brushes.
Wind direction is sensed by the orientation of the fuselage-shaped sensor body, which is connected to an internal potentiometer. The datalogger applies a known precision excitation voltage to the potentiometer element. The output is an analog voltage signal directly proportional to the azimuth angle.

The measurement instructions will likely remain the same. However, in addition to the multiplier and offset, the type of pulse may change for the wind speed, and the excitation voltage may change for the wind direction. For an explanation of how the datalogger needs to be programmed, see the instruction manual.
This depends on what is broken. Typically, Campbell Scientific can repair the unit, and the user does not have to purchase a new one.
The information included on a calibration sheet differs with each sensor. For some sensors, the sheet contains coefficients necessary to program a datalogger. For other sensors, the calibration sheet is a pass/fail report.
To incorporate a sensor that is compatible with wireless sensor interfaces into a wireless network, a CWS900-series wireless sensor interface is needed, as well as an A205 CWS-to-PC interface to configure it.
