Remote integration context
Representative site context. Sensors, interfaces, enclosure, power and mounting are confirmed against the actual project before quotation.
Select one range, output and supply combination
The reviewed manual covers one integrated cup-and-vane sensor family with several mutually exclusive electrical configurations.
- Choose a 0–30, 0–50 or 0–60 m/s wind-speed range. Do not assume the 0–60 m/s range when the lower range is needed.
- Choose one output: RS485 Modbus RTU, 4–20 mA, 0–2 V, 0–5 V or 0–10 V. Pulse output is not part of the reviewed configuration.
- The reviewed wind-speed accuracy is ±(0.3 + 0.03V) m/s, where V is the measured wind speed; wind-direction accuracy is ±1°.

How to choose
- State whether the project needs wind speed, direction or both, plus the normal and maximum wind range and starting threshold.
- Choose cup, vane or ultrasonic sensing from icing, salt, dust, maintenance and low-wind response requirements.
- Confirm output, heater power, mast geometry, boom orientation, cable length and logger compatibility before quotation.
Compatible with
- RS485 Modbus RTU masters using the selected 9600 baud, 8N1 configuration
- Analog inputs accepting one selected 0–2 V, 0–5 V, 0–10 V or 4–20 mA signal configuration
- Weather loggers, PLCs and field RTUs that can scale separate wind-speed and direction values
- Pole or mast installations with a reviewed boom, cable route, grounding and surge-protection plan
Typical package
- Integrated cup anemometer and wind vane
- One selected wind-speed range and one selected electrical output
- Project-confirmed DC supply, with optional heater power where required
- Standard 2.4 m cable or an approved project length
- Mast boom, junction protection, grounding, surge protection and the connected logger or RTU
Applications
Use this integrated mechanical sensor when one mast position must provide both wind speed and 0–360° direction to a logger, PLC or RTU. Select one wind-speed range, one output type and the matching DC supply before quotation; the analog and RS485 variants are alternatives, not simultaneous outputs.
- Irrigation, greenhouse and farm weather monitoring where wind affects spraying or field work
- Solar, water and utility sites that need local wind data alongside other environmental measurements
- Weather loggers and remote RTUs that accept RS485 Modbus RTU or a selected analog input
- Fixed non-hazardous mast installations where moving parts can be inspected and maintained
What to include in your quote request
- Wind speed / direction requirement and range
- Low-wind threshold and icing / salt / dust conditions
- Output and connected logger / RTU
- Mast height, boom, orientation and cable length
- Heater power, quantity and project stage

Frequently asked questions
Are RS485, 4–20 mA and voltage outputs available at the same time?
No. The reviewed manual describes alternative output configurations. Select one of RS485 Modbus RTU, 4–20 mA, 0–2 V, 0–5 V or 0–10 V when the product is quoted.
Which wind-speed ranges are available?
The reviewed range options are 0–30, 0–50 and 0–60 m/s. One range is selected for the ordered configuration. The reviewed starting wind speed is no more than 0.3 m/s.
What power supply is required?
RS485 and 0–2 V configurations use 5–24 VDC. The reviewed 0–5 V, 0–10 V and 4–20 mA configurations use 12–24 VDC. An optional heater requires a separate 12–24 VDC supply budget of 15 W average and 18 W peak.
What must be confirmed for mast installation?
Provide mast height, boom geometry, orientation, cable route, nearby obstructions, grounding, surge protection and icing or salt exposure. These details affect placement, maintenance and whether the optional heater is appropriate.
What should I provide when requesting a quote for the Integrated Wind Speed & Direction Sensor?
Wind speed / direction requirement and range; Low-wind threshold and icing / salt / dust conditions; Output and connected logger / RTU; Mast height, boom, orientation and cable length
Where can I compare available model options?
Open the Agriculture & Weather Hardware Catalog linked on this page. It lists audited SG-coded selections; the ordered configuration is confirmed in the quotation.
Will it work with my existing system?
Compatibility is reviewed against your field signals, protocols and upstream platform. Typical pairings include RS485 Modbus RTU masters using the selected 9600 baud, 8N1 configuration, Analog inputs accepting one selected 0–2 V, 0–5 V, 0–10 V or 4–20 mA signal configuration, Weather loggers, PLCs and field RTUs that can scale separate wind-speed and direction values.
