Overview

The WindSonic4 is a two-dimensional ultrasonic anemometer for measuring wind direction and speed. It provides an alternative to traditional mechanical cup and vane or propeller and vane anemometers. This sonic wind sensor outputs an SDI-12 signal that can be read a a compatible Campbell Scientific data logger. (See theCompatibility section

The WindSonic4 is not recommended for conditions where rime, ice, or horizontal snow will occur. This sensor is not heated. Please contact Campbell Scientific for information on a heated 2-D sonic anemometer that will work in these conditions.

Note:越来越多equipment supplied with this sensor may vary depending on which Campbell Scientific regional office the sensor is ordered from.

Detailed Description

The WindSonic4 uses two pairs of orthogonally oriented transducers to sense the horizontal wind. The transducers bounce the ultrasonic signal from a hood, thus minimizing the effects of transducer shadowing and flow distortion.

Unlike mechanical anemometers, the WindSonic4 has no moving parts to be periodically replaced—minimizing routine maintenance costs.

其他兼容性信息

Mounting

The WindSonic4 is shipped with the 17387 mounting kit. This mounting kit is used to attach the sensor to a CM202, CM204, or CM206 crossarm. The crossarm is then mounted to a tripod or tower.

Data Logger Considerations

WindSonic4是连接到一个有限公司ntrol port, +12 Vdc, and ground. Up to ten WindSonic4s (each with a unique address) can be connected to one data logger control port.

Programming

The SDI12 instruction is used to collect data from the WindSonic4.


Frequently Asked Questions

Number of FAQs related toWINDSONIC4-L:9

展开全部全部收缩

  1. All WindSonics (option 1 or option 4) are shipped from Campbell Scientific with an interface cable. If the cable has been lost, order a replacement. Order model WINDSONIC1CBL-Lxx for an option 1 or WINDSONIC4CBL-Lxx for an option 4, where xx is the cable length. The maximum cable length is 50 feet for option 1. The maximum cable on the SDI-1 bus is 200 feet.

  2. The fastest output frequency is 4 Hz for the WindSonic1 and 1 Hz for the WindSonic4.

  3. Yes, as long as these two conditions are met:

    1. 测量量没有障碍物。
    2. The temperature is between -35 to +70 degrees Celsius.
  4. There are no user-serviceable parts on the WindSonic1 and WindSonic4. Should the WindSonic require service, it will start setting diagnostic flags. Campbell Scientific recommends that all data logger programs record the total number of times the flags are set in an output period.For details,see theWindsonic指令手册.

  5. Most Campbell Scientific sensors are available as an –L, which indicates a user-specified cable length. If a sensor is listed as an –LX model (where “X” is some other character), that sensor’s cable has a user-specified length, but it terminates with a specific connector for a unique system:

    • An –LC model has a user-specified cable length for connection to an ET107, CS110, or retired Metdata1.
    • An –LQ model has a user-specified cable length for connection to a RAWS-P weather station.

    If a sensor does not have an –L or other –LX designation after the main model number, the sensor has a set cable length. The cable length is listed at the end of the Description field in the product’s Ordering information. For example, the 034B-ET model has a description of “Met One Wind Set for ET Station, 67 inch Cable.” Products with a set cable length terminate, as a default, with pigtails.

    如果电缆用特殊的连接器终止于独特系统,则型号的末端指定了哪个系统。例如,034B-ET模型将传感器指定为ET107系统的034B。

    • –ET models terminate with the connector for an ET107 weather station.
    • –ETM models terminate with the connector for an ET107 weather station, but they also include a special system mounting, which is often convenient when purchasing a replacement part.
    • –QD models terminate with the connector for a RAWS-F Quick Deployment Station.
    • –PW models terminate with the connector for a PWENC or pre-wired system.
  6. 并非每个传感器都有不同的电缆终止选项。可以通过在传感器产品页面的订购信息区域的两个地方查看特定传感器的选项:

    • Model number
    • 电缆终止选项列表

    如果在–ET,–ETM,–LC,–LQ或–QD版本中提供传感器,则该选项的可用性反映在传感器型号中。例如,034b以034b-et,034b-etm,034b-lc,034b-LQ和034b-qD提供。

    如果有的话,所有其他电缆终止选项均在传感器产品页面的“电缆终止选项”下的“订购信息”页面上列出。例如,如034B-L产品页面的订购信息区域所示,使用–CWS,–PT和–PW选项提供034B-L风集。

    Note:As newer products are added to our inventory, typically, we will list multiple cable termination options under a single sensor model rather than creating multiple model numbers. For example, the HC2S3-L has a –C cable termination option for connecting it to a CS110 instead of offering an HC2S3-LC model.

  7. The fundamental measurement frequency of the WindSonic is 40 Hz (40 measurements per second). These measurements are then averaged to give an output at some slower output frequency. For a WindSonic programmed to produce 1 Hz data, all 40 measurements are averaged. (This is called a block average.) For a WindSonic that is programmed to produce 4 Hz data, each output is the block average of 10 fundamental measurements.

  8. The WindSonic is not suitable for measuring the vertical wind component. The WindSonic measures the wind that passes through its measurement volume. It does not care what the orientation is. If the WindSonic is turned on its side, the reflecting top and body of the sensor will cause massive flow distortion of the wind vector, specifically for the horizontal component that is perpendicular to the reflective top. This flow distortion will most likely result in erroneous vertical wind measurements.

  9. Many Campbell Scientific sensors are available with different cable termination options. These options include the following:

    • –pt(–pt w/tinned电线)选项是默认选项,并且不会像其他选项一样在产品线上显示。电缆终止于直接连接到数据记录器的辫子。
    • In the –C (–C w/ET/CS110 Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a CS110 Electric Field Meter or an ET-series weather station.
    • In the –CWS (–CWS w/CWS900 Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a CWS900-series interface. Connection to a CWS900-series interface allows the sensor to be used in a wireless sensor network.
    • In the –PW (–PW w/Pre-Wire Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a prewired enclosure.
    • 在–RQ(–RQ W/RAWS连接器)选项中,该电缆终止在连接器的连接器中,该连接器连接到RAWS-P永久远程自动气象站。

    Note:The availability of cable termination options varies by sensor. For example, sensors may have none, two, or several options to choose from. If a desired option is not listed for a specific sensor, contact Campbell Scientific for assistance.
