How the sensor works and how an anemometer works
Anemometers can provide the most original recorded wind speed and direction data in hydrographic stations, environmental protection, agriculture, forestry, power plants, islands, transportation, mines and other industries.
The anemometer sensor adopts a traditional two-cup rotating frame structure. It converts the wind speed into the rotational speed of the rotating frame.
In order to reduce the starting wind speed, a lightweight wind cup made of special materials and a jewel bearing support are used. After being detected by the sensor, the device fixed on the rotating frame transmits the signal to the host for measurement.
The microcontroller in the anemometer samples, corrects, and calculates the output signal of the wind sensor;
Finally, the instrument outputs five parameters: instantaneous wind speed/one-minute average wind speed/instantaneous wind level/one-minute average wind level/wave height corresponding to the average wind level.
The measured parameters are directly displayed digitally on the LCD display of the instrument.
In order to reduce the power consumption of the instrument, the sensors and microcontrollers in the instrument have taken a series of special measures to reduce power consumption.
In order to ensure the reliability of the data, when the power supply voltage is too low, the battery mark at the bottom of the display shows lack of power, prompting the user that the power supply voltage is too low and the data is no longer reliable, and the battery needs to be replaced in time.
6 Precautions for Using Anemometer
1. The anemometer is prohibited from being used in flammable gas environments as it may cause fire or even explosion.
2. Please read the instructions for use before use and use the anemometer strictly in accordance with the instructions.
3. During use, if the anemometer emits abnormal smell, sound or smoke, or if liquid flows into the anemometer, please stop using it and remove the battery.
4. Do not touch the sensor part inside the probe during use.
5. Do not use volatile liquids to wipe the anemometer.
6. If the battery is not used for a long time, the battery should be removed and stored correctly. Do not press it heavily.
