WINDCAP Ultrasonic Wind Sensor WMT700

The WINDCAP® Ultrasonic Wind Sensor WMT700 is a robust, reliable ultrasonic anemometer that provides surface wind direction and wind speed measurement that is WMO, CIMO, and ICAO compliant.

Ultrasonic wind sensor technology in the WMT700 delivers highly accurate wind speed and direction information ranging from barely perceptible winds to extremely high gusts.

It is also highly accurate in conditions where mechanical instruments fail, including heavy precipitation, severe icing, strong winds, heavy sand and dust, and offshore maritime installations. Optional heaters in the transducer, arm, and/or body prevent build-up of freezing precipitation.
