3-Axis Ultrasonic Anemometer – AEOLUS 3

Advanced 3D Wind Speed & Direction Monitoring for Weather Stations, Wind Farms & Industrial Applications

The AEOLUS 3 (WUS30F Series) is a high-performance 3-axis ultrasonic anemometer designed for precise wind monitoring in demanding environmental and industrial applications. Unlike traditional mechanical anemometers, AEOLUS 3 uses advanced ultrasonic technology with no moving parts, ensuring maintenance-free operation, higher reliability, and long-term performance. It accurately measures wind speed, wind direction, U-V-W Cartesian wind components, wind gusts, sonic temperature, barometric pressure, and tilt angles, making it ideal for professional weather monitoring systems. Built with a rugged AISI 316 stainless steel housing, AEOLUS 3 is specially designed for harsh outdoor and marine environments. Its integrated heating system prevents snow and ice accumulation, ensuring accurate performance even under extreme weather conditions. The sensor is widely used in wind farms, automatic weather stations (AWS), bridges, ports, airports, heliports, and railway tunnels, where precise wind data is critical for safety and operations.

Key Features:

  • 🌬️ High-Precision 3D Wind Measurement

    Measures wind speed from 0 to 85 m/s with 0.01 m/s resolution and wind direction from 0° to 360° azimuth plus ±60° elevation, providing highly accurate 3-axis wind monitoring.

  • 📡 Multiple Output & Communication Options

    Supports RS232, RS485, RS422, SDI-12, along with NMEA, Modbus-RTU, and ASCII proprietary protocols, plus 3 isolated analog outputs for flexible system integration.

Key Features:

  • ❄️ Integrated Heating for All-Weather Performance

    Built-in heating prevents snow and ice buildup on sensors and supports, ensuring stable measurements in freezing and severe weather conditions.

  • 🛡️ Rugged Marine-Grade AISI 316 Housing

    Corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction with IP67 protection makes it suitable for aggressive atmospheres, coastal installations, and industrial environments.
