2 Application
The wind transmitter is used for t he r egistration of the horizontal component of the wind velocity.
The measuring value will be placed at the output as analogue signal. The signal can be given to
display instruments, recording instrum ent s, datalogger as well as process wise systems. The wind
transmitter is equipped with an electronically regulated heating system in order to prevent ice and
frost from t he ball bearings and the outer rotation parts.
Power supply unit, Order no. 9.3388.00.000 provides the transm it t er and the heating system with
current. It is advisable to attach Light ning rod, Order no. 4.3100.99.000 in ar eas with considerable
lightning activity.
3 Set-up of the instrument
A low-inertia light metallic cup star is set into rotation by the wind. Through the opto-electronic
rotating freq uency-sc anning the resulting pulse frequency is converted thr ough an integrated
measuring transducer into an analogue signal. The measuring transducer is nor m ally provided with
voltage from the heating system. The instrument can also be used without the heating system. In
this case the measuring transducer has t o be provided with a separate voltage supply. Input and
outputs have to be protected from overload by Tr ans zorb diodes.
The outer parts of t he inst r um ent are made of corrosion-resist ant anodised aluminium. The
sensitive parts inside of the instrument ar e pr ot ec t ed from precipitation throug h labyrinth seals and
o-rings. The instrument is des ig ned to be mounted to a mast, the electrical connection is located in
the stem of the transmitter.
It consists of the following parts: 1 Case
1 Cup star
1 Connection plug
4 Recommendation Site Selection / Standard Installation
According to international regulations, the surface wind should be measured at a height of 10 m
above flat, open terrain, in order to achieve comparable values. An open terrain is defined as
terrain where the distance between the wind-measuring instrument and the next obstacle is at least
ten times the height of t his obstacle (see VDI 3786, Part 2). I f the reg ulation cannot be adhered to,
the measuring instr ument should be installed at a height at which the measurem ent values are not
influenced by any local obstacles. In any case, the measuring instruments are to be installed at a
height of 6 to 10 m above the mean heig ht of t he buildings or trees in the vicinity. If it is necessary
to install the instrument on a roof , it should be installed in the centre of the roof in order to avoid
any preferential directions.

5 Installation
Attention:
Storing, mounting and operation under weather conditions is
permissible only in vertical position, as otherwise water can get into
the instrument.
Remark:
When using fastening adapters (angle, tr av er ses , et c.) please take a possible
effect by turbulences into consideration.
5.1 Mounting of the cup s t a r
Unscrew the cap nut (SW 8) from the wind velocity sensor case and remove the disk. Keep the
rubber sealing washer in the protection cap. Set the cup star into position in such a way that the
dowel pin in the cup star catches in the nut of t he protective cap. Replace the disk and re-screw the
cap nut. Hold the transmitter on the protective cap not on the cup.

5.3 Mounting of the Wi nd Transmitter
Mount the transmitter to a short piece of pipe of R 1½“ (Ø 48 mm) and a length of 50 mm. The
short piece of pipe must have an internal diameter of at least 36 mm as the wind transmitter m ust
be connected electrically with a plug from below. Once the electrical connect ion has been car r ied
out, set the wind transmitter onto t he short piece and fasten it to the shaft with the two hexagonal
screws.
6 Maintenance
After proper mounting t he inst r ument works maintenance free.
Heavy pollution can clog up the slit between the rotating and the stationary parts of the wind
transmitter. This slit must be kept clean.
Remark:
Please use only original packing for transporting the instrument.
