1. Introduction

The 05103, 05103-45, 05106, and 05305 Wind Monitor sensors are used to measure horizontal wind speed and direction. The 05305 is a high performance version of the 05103 designed to meet PSD specifications for air quality applications. The 05103-45 is an alpine version that discourages ice buildup. The 05106 is recommended for marine applications.
Before installing the Wind Monitor, please study
Section 2, Cautionary Statements
Section 3, Initial Inspection
Section 4, Quickstart

2. Cautionary Statements

The Wind Monitor is a precision instrument. Please handle it with care.
If the Wind Monitor is to be installed at heights over 6 feet, be familiar
with tower safety and follow safe tower climbing procedures.
Danger — Use extreme care when working near overhead electrical wires.
Check for overhead wires before mounting the Wind Monitor or before raising a tower.
The black outer jacket of the cable is Santoprene® rubber. This compound
was chosen for its resistance to temperature extremes, moisture, and UV degradation. However, this jacket will support combustion in air. It is rated as slow burning when tested according to U.L. 94 H.B. and will pass FMVSS302. Local fire codes may preclude its use inside buildings.

3. Initial Inspection

Upon receipt of the Wind Monitor, inspect the packaging and contents for
damage. File damage claims with the shipping company. Immediately check package contents against the shipping documentation (see Section
3.1, Ships With). Contact Campbell Scientific about any discrepancies.
The model number and cable length are printed on a label at the
connection end of the cable. Check this information against the shipping documents to ensure the expected product and cable length are received.

3.1 Ships With

The Wind Monitors ship with:
(1) Allen wrench from manufacturer (1) Bearing spacer from manufacturer (1) Calibration sheet (1) Instruction manual (1) 3659 mounting pipe

4. Quickstart

4.1 Step 1 — Mount the Sensor

FIGURE 4-1 shows a 05103 installed with a 17953 Nurail®*. Please review Section 7, Installation, for siting and other guidelines.
Install the 05103 using:
3659 12 inch aluminum pipe
CM220 Right-Angle Mounting Kit, or
17953 1 x 1 inch Nurail® Crossover Fitting
1. Secure the propeller to its shaft using the nut provided with the sensor.
2. Mount a CM202, CM204, or CM206 crossarm to a tripod or tower.
3. Orient the crossarm North-South, with the 17953 Nurail® on the north
end. Appendix A contains detailed information on determining true north using a compass and the magnetic declination for the site.
4. Secure the 3659 12 inch aluminum pipe to the 17953 Nurail®. The 3659
aluminum pipe is shipped with the Wind Monitor.
5. Place the orientation ring, followed by the Wind Monitor on the aluminum
pipe.
6. Orient the junction box to the south, and tighten the band clamps on the
orientation ring and aluminum pipe. Final sensor orientation is done after the datalogger has been programmed to measure wind direction as described in Appendix A.
7. Use the torpedo level to ensure that the Wind Monitor is level.
8. Route the sensor cable along the underside of the crossarm to the tripod or
tower, and to the instrument enclosure.
9. Secure the cable to the crossarm and tripod or tower using cable ties.

4.2 Step 2 — Use SCWin Short Cut to Program Datalogger and Generate Wiring Diagram

The simplest method for programming the datalogger to measure the Wind Monitor is to use Campbell Scientific’s SCWin Short Cut Program Generator.
1. Open Short Cut and click on New Program.
