Description
The Environmental Meter is primarily used to measure and monitor the wind load on cranes or wind turbines. Furthermore, the wind situation can be measured and analysed before commissioning a wind turbine.
Thanks to the Environmental Meter's high measurement range of up to 50 m/s, even stormy gusts can be monitored. The radio range of the Environmental Meter is up to 750 m in the open field in the free frequency band of 2.4 GHz. When installing the display of the Environmental Meter indoors, a range of up to 60 m to the wind sensor can be achieved. Thanks to the integrated 4 ... 20 mA analogue output of the wind warning system display, the measurement data can also be transferred to other control systems for evaluation.
If the wind speed values are higher than the preset values, a pre-alarm is switched on before the alarm is issued. Both alarms are signalled visually and acoustically on the Environmental Meter with data logger. If the pre-alarm is activated, a yellow LED will flash on the front of the device and a beeper will emit a periodic warning sound. If the normal alarm needs to be activated, the red LED will flash and the device will beep continuously.
In general, the anemometer is used wherever wind monitoring is required. This is often the case in factories, mines, wind turbines and the like. In addition to the low wind speeds, the Environmental Meter is characterised by its high reliability and high accuracy.
