3-Axis Ultrasonic Anemometer
The Gill WindMaster Pro (MTI.AWS.GL.PRO) is a precision anemometer offering three-axis wind measurement data. This instrument will monitor wind speeds of 0-65m/s and provides sonic temperature, speed of sound and U, V & W vector outputs at 32Hz as standard. The unit also features improved vertical (W) resolution and speed of sound accuracy and less distortion due to wind loading. Each WindMaster Pro can be calibrated with an optional Gill wind tunnel test to provide optimum performance. Optional analogue inputs and outputs plus a PRT are available with 14 bit resolution.
This anemometer is of stainless steel external construction and is particularly suitable for precision wind measurement applications requiring 3-axis data involving high wind speeds.
