Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating principle of the NU200E12TR-1T sensor?

The NU200E12TR-1T is a piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer. It operates at 200kHz, generating sound waves and measuring the time-of-flight or frequency shift of the echo to calculate wind speed. The integrated element acts as both transmitter and receiver.

What is the maximum voltage I can apply to this ultrasonic transducer?

The maximum input voltage (peak-to-peak) for the NU200E12TR-1T is 500Vp-p. It is crucial to drive the sensor within this limit using a compatible ultrasonic driver circuit to ensure proper operation and avoid damaging the piezoelectric element.

Is this sensor suitable for permanent outdoor installation?

Yes, the sensor's IP68 rating and stainless steel housing make it highly suitable for permanent outdoor installation. It is fully protected against dust ingress and prolonged immersion in water, and can operate reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +80°C.

What is the beam angle, and why is it important for wind measurement?

The sensor has a beam angle of 30° (±2°) at the -3dB point. This focused cone defines the sensing area and directionality, which is critical for accurate wind speed measurement as it minimizes interference from surrounding objects and ensures consistent signal reflection from the target airflow.
