Precision Wind Sensor
# 81 01 05
Precision Wind Sensor

Cobwebs could eventually block an anemometer wheel during calm periods. However, the Tecnautic Wind Sensor has a little motor inside, that will free it automatically, every time power is turned on.
During normal operation, the motor is delivering just enough torque, to compensate for the bearing friction, thus effectively eliminating any drag.
The wind angle is sensed with a wedge shaped vane, providing higher accuracy than a single vane. The resulting data are so accurate, that the angle can be measured with a resolution of 0,3 degrees.

The Sensor has ball bearings for wind speed and wind angle and has virtually no wear.

# 810300
Ultrasonic Wind Sensor
Without moving parts!

Option:

The AirmarŽ PB200 Ultrasonic Wind Sensor has no moving parts and comes together with a built in GPS receiver, a Heading-Sensor, an Inclinometer and an air pressure and temperature sensor, all in the same housing. Data are transmitted by the sensor in NMEA format and are shown on the Cockpit displays or - with the included "WeatherCaster" software - on a PC screen. 
The sensor also suits the autopilot perfectly well, by substituting the standard Fluxgate with its built in compass and GPS.

Mast Angle Sensor

(for rotating mast)
# 81 01 40
In case of a rotating mast, the mast angle has to be taken into account, when measuring the wind direction. This is a fully automatic feature on the TECNAUTIC Wind-6. Only a mast angle sensor has to be installed at the mast foot and be connected to a Cockpit Display with an unused sensor input.
