Industrial process application
Wind sensors and weather stations for environmental monitoring at chemical plants
Accurate air quality monitoring
With increasingly stringent legislative limits on air pollutants released from chemical plants, accurate air quality monitoring is essential. Wind speed and direction information is a vital part of this process.
Emergency response planning
An emergency situation can arise at a factory not just from a chemical leak or spillage but also from a sudden release of pollutants into the atmosphere via a smoke stack due to an internal processing problem. Under these circumstances accurate real-time wind speed and direction data is vital for plume modelling, etc. so that an appropriate emergency response plan can be implemented.
Recommended wind sensors for chemical air quality
Gill WindSonic is a low-cost 2-axis ultrasonic anemometer, providing wind speed and direction data in a robust housing. This anemometer has no moving parts, which removes a common source of mechanical wear in a wide range of applications.
MetConnect is a compact multi-sensor professional weather station providing wind speed and direction, barometric pressure, temperature, humidity and dew point measurements, with capability to connect auxiliary sensors and combine all inputs into one serial data output.
