Sunmeter Pro Wind - Irradiance, Temperature and Wind Speed Sensor

Sunmeter Pro Wind – Irradiance, Temperature and Wind Speed Sensor

Anemometers, Products, Pyranometers

SUNMETER PRO WIND is a high performance digital solarimeter based on Sunmeter PRO that also gives wind readings thanks to a direct connection to a pulse output anemometer via RS485 Modbus.

A 3-in-1 irradiance, temperature and wind speed sensor

Thanks to its firmware and hardware implementations, SUNMETER PRO WIND measures the irradiance, temperature and wind speed through a direct connection to a PT100 and a pulse anemometer.

The anemometer can be connected thanks to a 3-way IP67 connector. The single device, reduces wiring and a reading of temperature and wind speed values is ensured by reading all these parameters in sequence through a RS485 Modbus.

Note: the terms solarimeter, irradiance sensor, pyranometer and calibrated cell are interchangeable. On this site we will use irradiance sensor. To learn more click here.
