The air quality is a lightweight, high-performance wind-speed and wind-direction sensor designed specifically for your air-quality measurements. It is more responsive but less rugged than the other wind monitors. It provides a lower starting threshold, faster response, and higher accuracy than the other wind monitors. The wind monitor’s design emphasizes simplicity and lightweight construction. It is made out of rigid, UV-stabilized thermoplastic, with stainless-steel and anodized-aluminum fittings. The thermoplastic material resists corrosion from sea-air environments and atmospheric pollutants. The wind monitor uses stainless-steel, precision-grade ball bearings for the propeller shaft and vertical shaft bearings.
Benefits and Features
