Heavy Duty
Wind Monitor-HD-Alpine
Model 05108-45
The Wind Monitor-HD-Alpine utilizes extremely long wearing, oversize ceramic bearings to increase the service life many times longer than standard stainless steel bearings. In addition to being more wear resistant, ceramic bearings are resistant to corrosion in environments that are hostile to steel bearings.
The Wind Monitor HD-Alpine also has an oversized propeller shaft, high pitch propeller and locking propeller nut, all features that will further enhance the long term reliability of the sensor.
All external housing surfaces are coated with a specially formulated, ice resistant coating to improve performance in harsh Alpine conditions. The all-black color scheme further enhances the ice shedding performance of the sensor.
The instrument mounts on standard 1 inch pipe.
