WindObserver with Modbus support.
Easier integration into SCADA, PLC and wider industrial control environments. Same proven ultrasonic wind measurement. Available on new units from late June.
Modbus communication support, now available for WindObserver.
WindObserver has been trusted across marine, offshore, infrastructure and industrial environments for decades. From late June, the WO65 and WO75 will be available with Modbus communication support, making it easier to integrate directly into the industrial and environmental control architectures where Modbus is the standard.
Simplified integration
Connects directly into Modbus-based control systems without additional protocol conversion hardware.
Reduced integration complexity
Removes the need for gateways and intermediary devices in Modbus-native environments.
Same proven platform
Ultrasonic wind measurement with no moving parts, stainless steel construction, and optional heating.
Where Modbus integration matters most.
Modbus is the established protocol across a wide range of industrial and environmental sectors. WindObserver with Modbus support is designed for environments where native protocol compatibility is a specification requirement, not an afterthought.
Direct integration into control systems
Where Modbus is the default protocol across a site's control infrastructure, WindObserver now integrates without gateway hardware. Suitable for plant monitoring, process control and industrial automation environments.
Vessel and platform monitoring
WindObserver is already trusted on vessels, platforms and offshore structures. Modbus support extends compatibility with marine SCADA and vessel management systems where Modbus is standard.
Monitoring networks and data acquisition
Environmental monitoring deployments increasingly use standardised communication architectures. Modbus support simplifies wind data acquisition into existing telemetry and data logging infrastructure.
Roads, railways and ports
Transport infrastructure projects frequently specify Modbus for wind measurement integration into broader site management systems. WindObserver with Modbus support meets that requirement directly.
Grid, generation and distribution sites
Power generation and utility infrastructure rely on Modbus across substations, generation sites and distribution networks. WindObserver now speaks directly into those environments.
Embedded and integrated solutions
OEMs and system integrators specifying wind measurement for Modbus-native platforms can now include WindObserver without additional protocol translation. Reduces bill of materials and integration time.
Important: new units only
Modbus communication support is available on new WO65 and WO75 units ordered from late June 2026. Existing WindObserver units cannot be retrofitted or upgraded to add Modbus capability. If you are planning a new specification or replacement purchase and require Modbus, please register your interest below and our team will be in touch with availability, ordering information and lead times.
Built for where conditions are demanding.
Forty years of ultrasonic engineering, designed and manufactured in the UK. No moving parts, proven solid-state performance, and a build quality matched to the environments it operates in. Marine, offshore, infrastructure, industrial. Now with Modbus communication support for the architectures that expect it.
