MeteoWind 2 (MTI.AWS.BR.MW2). Simplify your wind logging with the most compact 1st Class anemometer and wind vane Elliptic cups create more torque & high linearity for improved data consistency vs. conical cups over a wide range of weather conditions. Very low start speeds, fast response and accurate long-term wind data are their inherent benefits. Elliptical cups offer a larger wind blown area than circular cups for higher torque and low start speeds. They are also flatter than conical cups for superb off-axis response and reduces effects of rain and snow on anemometer linearity. These benefits of elliptic cups also offer superb linearity, not before possible in such a compact anemometer.
• Very low starting wind speed for such a compact anemometer
• Excellent linearity and accuracy exceeding MEASNET requirements
• Excellent off-axis response. Low distance constant
• Flat elliptic cups are more resistant to snow buildup
