Etesian Anemometer, 3-Cup Wired, Reed Switch Signal- ET-3250
Couldn't load pickup availability
Anemometer using a three-cup design. Designed for reliable operation and long life. The reinforced injection molded cups can withstand high speed wind gusts. The rotor shaft is beryllium copper which provides corrosion resistance and excellent operating temperature range with low friction, long life Rulon bearings. The anemometer enclosure is comprised of injection molded polycarbonate resin with embedded brass assembly hardware to provide IP65 rated weather resistance.
Applications
- Wind resource assessment instrumentation
