Anemometer THIES First Class Advantech
The Anemometer THIES First Class Advantech offers outstanding performance.
It is the only anemometer on the market that complies with all the requirements of IEC 61400-12-1 (2005-12), Class S 0.5.
Its performance ratings have even improved on the previous Thies First Class anemometer, which was rated the best of its kind according to the CLASSCUP / ACCUWIND Study, (Risø-R-1563-EN, Table 4-4).
This anemometer gives optimal dynamic performance with the following characteristics:
- > High accuracy
- > Minimal deviation from cosine line
- > Excellent behaviour to turbulences
- > Minimum overspeeding
- > Small distance constant
- > Low start up value
- > Low power consumption
- > Digital output
The main tasks of this instrument are power curves measurement and site assessment reports.
The patented design is the result of a long testing in the wind gallery.
The sensor is designed for measuring the horizontal component of wind velocity in the fields of meteorology, climate measuring technology, site assessment, and the measurement of capacity characteristics of wind power systems (power curves).
For winter operation this instrument is equipped with electronically regulated heating to guarantee smooth running of the ball bearings and prevent the shaft and slot from ice build up.
