3-AXIS ULTRASONIC ANEMOMETER
WindMaster HS
Horizontal head, stainless steel, 32 Hz.
WindMaster HS combines a horizontal head with a stainless steel build at a fixed 32 Hz. The horizontal head is specified where the vertical component has to be measured with the least possible flow distortion from the instrument itself.
Horizontal head
For vertical-flow accuracy
Stainless steel, IP65
Rated -40°C to +70°C
RS232 and analogue
12-bit, 14-bit option
32 Hz output rate
Wind speed 0 to 45 m/s
WHERE IT SITS
WindMaster HS in the WindMaster range
Within the WindMaster family the models differ by measurement range, output rate, build and approvals rather than by measurement principle.

BEFORE YOU SPECIFY
Is the WindMaster HS the correct configuration?
Before specifying, confirm:
- the wind speed range the site actually sees
- the output rate the receiving system needs
- the operating temperature and whether heating is required
- any approval or certification the installation demands
- the mounting arrangement and cable or connector choice
- the interface and output the receiving system expects
If those match, the WindMaster HS provides that configuration.
