Monitor Wind Speeds Up To 170 MPH with Our Smart Sensor

Measure wind speed from 0 to 76 m/sec (0 to 170  mph). This smart sensor provides data reporting average wind speed and highest 3 second gust for each logging interval. The starting threshold is 1 m/s (2.2 mph); sensor survives 76 m/sec (170 mph). This model comes with a 3m cable.

The wind speed smart sensor is designed to work with HOBO® stations. The smart sensor has a plug-in modular connector that allows it to be added easily to a HOBO station. All sensor parameters are stored inside the smart sensor, which automatically communicates configuration information to the logger without the need for any programming or extensive user setup.

Note: An M-CAA Full Cross Arm or a M-CAB Half Cross Arm is required for mounting.
