When it comes to measuring wind,
trade-offs have always been involved. Cup anemometers can’t measure both
wind speed and wind direction (or low wind speeds, for that matter).
They’re also prone to malfunction since they all contain moving parts.
Meanwhile, sonic anemometers have always been too costly. Until now.
The best of both worlds
The
wind-tunnel-tested ATMOS 22 ultrasonic anemometer delivers the best of
both worlds. It’s accurate at any wind speed because there aren’t any
moving parts that cause friction or fail. And it’s inexpensive,
especially when you consider the low-energy design. Accuracy.
Dependability. Affordability. You get all three with the ATMOS 22.
Accuracy that will blow you away
If
you want accurate wind profiling, a sonic anemometer is the obvious
choice. Designed with canopies in mind, the ATMOS 22 registers even the
lowest thresholds of wind speed (0 m/s) with the added ability to detect
fine-scale variations within 0.01 m/s resolution. We even installed
spikes on flat surfaces to dissipate raindrop energy so transducer
signals don’t get obstructed.
Contrast
the ATMOS 22’s advanced technology to a cup or propeller wind
anemometer. Neither will spin if wind speed is too low. Cup anemometers
also don’t indicate wind direction, unless you combine them with a wind
vane. And both are prone to additional inaccuracies due to worn out
moving parts. But with the ATMOS 22, you can accurately measure wind
speed anywhere, every time, with total confidence.
Wind measurement is now a breeze
The
ATMOS 22 was designed without moving parts, meaning there’s never any
mechanical wear. No oiling or replacing bearings. And no recalibration
required. Just reliability you can continue to count on.
Not
only does its ultra-low power consumption make it ideal for long-term,
remote installations, but its compact size makes it small enough to
deploy inside canopies. And instead of having to make field visits to
collect data and check sensor and system functions, you can monitor
information in real-time and download data using any internet-connected
device by connecting the ATMOS 22 to an EM60G data logger. Which not only saves you time, but provides worry-free operation and peace of mind.
A low-cost sonic anemometer. Yes, you heard right.
The
ATMOS 22 is not only far more affordable than other sonic anemometers
but also uses 100 to 1,000 times less power. Running on less than 100
uA, the ATMOS 22 frees you to make wind measurements in multiple
locations without having to constantly change batteries.
Sounds like a smarter way to measure wind. Because it is.
The
precise accuracy, yet low-maintenance of sonic measurement. The
low-cost of a regular anemometer, plus even lower power consumption. The
ATMOS 22 was engineered to offer a wide range of advantages across the
widest range of wind speed, all for an affordable price.
