Observator OMC-116 Full metal Ultrasonic wind sensor

Marine meteorological observations require devices designed to withstand the hardest environmental conditions such like heavy vibrations, sea spray, extreme colds, chemical particles etc. With a major track record the Marine and offshore market is the home market for the Observator meteorological product line. The OMC-116 is a ultrasonic wind sensor based on the time of flight theory. The unit is provided with industrial standard NMEA0183 output and can optionally be provided with 4.20 mA signals. The robust design in sea worthy alu and stainless steel as well the standard available heating makes this unit ideal for the hardest environments. The standard bracket with integrated junction box makes this unit easy to install. The OMC-116M Ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor comes standard with an industrial mounting bracket provided with 2 U-bolts suitable for mast mounting (max 65 mm dia.). An integrated junction box allows easy connection of sensor signal and power supply using standard cabling. The internal heater should be powered separately if used. The sensor can be congured to enable or disable the heater. In applications where heating is not required (and hence disabled), the OMC-116 can be powered directly from an Obsermet display or data logger. In cases where the heater is to be used (advised in cases where temperatures below zero may be expected) an external 24 Vdc power supply should be used with a capacity of not less that 250 watts. The unit comes complete with a calibration certicate at no extra cost. Although the unit is maintenance free and does not need re-calibration, it is possible to return the sensor for a re-calibration if required.
