Description

The SN-3000-FXJT-V05-360 wind direction transmitter utilizes a precision potentiometer coupled to a low-friction, high-performance bearing system. As the vane rotates with wind direction, the internal mechanism generates a proportional voltage signal across the 0-5V range, providing a continuous, high-resolution reading of wind azimuth from 0 to 359.9 degrees.

Engineered for harsh environmental conditions, its polycarbonate composite housing provides excellent resistance to UV exposure, corrosion, and mechanical impact. The sensor’s electrical design incorporates protection against reverse connection, overvoltage, and electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable signal integrity. It supports both three-wire and four-wire connection schemes for flexible system integration in fixed installations or portable monitoring stations.

Key Features

  • High-Accuracy Sensing: Delivers precise wind direction data with a typical accuracy of ±1° across the full 360° range.
  • Durable Outdoor Construction: Polycarbonate shell ensures long-term reliability with high hardness, corrosion resistance, and UV stability.
  • Optimized Mechanical Response: Low moment of inertia design with smooth internal bearings provides sensitive and accurate real-time direction tracking.
  • Robust Electrical Protection: Integrated reverse polarity and overvoltage protection safeguards the sensor and connected systems.
  • Low Power Operation: Consumes a maximum of 0.12W, making it suitable for solar-powered or battery-operated remote stations.
  • Flexible Wiring: Compatible with both three-wire (power, ground, signal) and four-wire connection methodologies.
  • Anti-EMI Design: Circuitry is treated to minimize errors from electromagnetic interference, ensuring clean signal output.

Applications

  • Precision meteorological monitoring for professional and amateur weather stations.
  • Environmental data collection systems for agricultural and greenhouse climate control.
  • Wind resource assessment and site studies for renewable energy installations.
  • Marine and coastal monitoring on ships, buoys, and dock facilities.
  • Integrated environmental sensing for aquaculture, livestock, and breeding facility management.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output signal of this wind direction sensor and how do I interface with it?

This sensor provides a 0-5V DC analog output voltage that varies linearly with wind direction from 0 to 360 degrees. To read it, connect the sensor's power (5V) and ground wires to your system's supply, and connect the signal output wire to an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) input on a microcontroller (like Arduino), data logger, or PLC. The voltage reading can then be scaled to obtain the wind direction in degrees.

Can this sensor operate in extreme outdoor conditions?

Yes, the SN-3000-FXJT-V05-360 is designed for continuous outdoor use. Its polycarbonate composite shell offers high impact strength and resistance to corrosion, UV exposure, and erosion. With an operating temperature range of -20°C to +60°C, it is suitable for most temperate and harsh climatic environments. The internal electrical components are also protected against electromagnetic interference.

What are the power requirements and wiring options for this sensor?

The sensor requires a single 5V DC power supply and consumes a maximum of 0.12W. It includes built-in reverse polarity and overvoltage protection. It supports flexible wiring: you can use a standard three-wire configuration (VCC, GND, Signal) or a four-wire setup depending on your system's requirements. Always refer to the product documentation for the specific pinout diagram.
