Information about 4-20mA Current Loops
This page Wind & Weather Stations - incl. ice free - Vaisala
The
Vaisala WINDCAP® Ultrasonic Wind Sensor WS425 F/G is a premium, ice-free
sensor for measuring surface wind speed and direction.
The sensor has no moving parts and it is resistant to contamination,
salt, dust, and corrosion. Thus, the WS425 F/G requires no on-demand or periodic
maintenance. The sensor has a heating feature with a total heating power of
150 W.
Wind speed can be measured up to 165 knots with the sensor.
The WS425 F/G uses ultrasound to determine horizontal wind speed and direction.
The measurement is based on transit time, the time it takes for the ultrasound
to travel from one transducer to another.
The transit time is measured in both directions for each pair of the transducer
heads. The wind measurements are calculated in a way that completely elimates
the effects of altitude, temperature, and humidity.
The WS425 F/G is especially suitable for use in harsh, arctic or antarctic conditions.
The United States National Weather Service has chosen to replace the mechanical
sensors used in the Automated Surface Observing System with the WS425 F/G.

Measure rainfall precipitation with the WXT520.
The measurement is based on the unique Vaisala RAINCAP® Sensor, which detects
the impact of individual rain drops.
The signals exerting from the impacts are proportional to the volume of the
drops.
Hence, the signal from each drop can be converted directly to the accumulated
rainfall.
The Vaisala RAINCAP® Sensor is the only maintenance-free precipitation sensor
on the market.
