Description
CDF-11A Wind Direction Sensor | Wind Vane Sensor For Meteorological Monitoring
Product Overview
CDF-11A is a high-precision ABS plastic wind direction sensor, professional outdoor IP65 wind vane transducer with stable 360° omnidirectional measurement. Adopting classic tail vane wind direction structure, this RS485 wind direction transmitter features sensitive response, accurate angle output and excellent long-term operation stability. The high-strength ABS plastic shell is anti-aging, corrosion-resistant, waterproof and dustproof, perfectly adapting to complex harsh outdoor environments. It matches standard RS485 Modbus-RTU signal, easy to install and maintain, widely used in meteorological stations, agricultural monitoring, photovoltaic power stations and industrial wind environment observation systems.
• Working Principle Of Wind Direction Vane Sensor
The wind vane automatically follows the wind direction to rotate, accurately converting real-time wind azimuth angle into stable RS485 digital signal output, realizing full-angle dead-angle-free wind direction monitoring in all outdoor weather conditions.
