R.M Young 81000RE ULTRASONIC ANEMOMETER - 3 AXIS w/EXTENDED MAST

The Young Model 81000RE measures three dimensional wind velocity and speed of sound based on the transit time of ultrasonic acoustic signals. Sonic temperature is derived from speed of sound which is corrected for crosswind effects. Measurement data are available as serial output using RS-232 or RS-485 connections. A  variety of serial output formats are available including a custom format which is easily set by the user. Four voltage output channels representing sonic temperature and wind in either Cartesian or Polar coordinates are also provided. Operating parameters may be edited via simpli¿ ed menus using an ordinary serial communication program like HyperTerm. All parameters are stored in non-volatile memory. Superior environmental resistance is achieved by using UV stabilized thermoplastic, stainless steel, and anodized aluminum components. Electrical connections are made via an easily accessible junction box. The unit mounts on standard 1 inch pipe, outside diameter 34mm (1.34?).
