KBQ-WindSonic2 Ultrasonic Anemometer
KBQ-WindSonic2 Ultrasonic 2D Anemometer is a compact ultrasonic
wind speed and wind direction sensor. It is designed to simultaneously
measure the 2-dimensional horizontal components of the wind speed
and direction. Using ASA shell, Weight is lighter and Structure is robust.
Build-in own intelligent heating module, It can normally work under the
cold and freezing weather.
Working Principle
Measure the transmission time of ultrasonic sensors from sensor N to sensor S, and compare
with the transmission time of sensor S to sensor N. Similarly, compare the time of W to E and
E to W time. (N = north, S = south, E = east, W = west)
For example, if the wind blew from the north, time of ultrasonic from N to S will be shorter than
from S to N, and transmission time of it from W to E and E to W is the same. Through
calculating the time difference of ultrasonic transmission between two points, the wind speed
and direction can be calculated. This calculation method has nothing to do with other factors
such as temperature.
