WindSonic 2-axis wind sensors now easier to integrate

Automation

Gill Instruments has announced an update to its WindSonic 2-axis wind sensors, WindSonic and WindSonic 75 both now have Modbus output alongside existing output options.

The WindSonic 2-axis anemometers are used extensively in applications that require integration into larger management and control systems across industries such as construction, renewable energy, manufacturing, and environmental monitoring.

These applications include:

•             Building and infrastructure management including bridges, tunnels and skyscrapers - including the world's tallest, the Burj Khalifa;

•             Large renewable energy installations, including solar and wind farms, requiring connected networks for monitoring, system management and maintenance;

•             Industrial automation, using PLCs and SCADA systems;

•             Environmental monitoring systems, integrating with other sensors to provide comprehensive weather and environmental data including World Meteorological Organisation (WMO)-compliant gust measurement – a parameter increasingly required to inform and control systems in extreme weather conditions.
 

WindSonic wind sensors are selected across the world for applications requiring:

•             Well proven accuracy and reliability;

•             Low maintenance for low total cost of ownership;

•             Models and outputs to suit most applications.
