Skip to the content Accurate wind speed and direction instruments are an important factor in the operational stability of equipment and integrated sensor systems across many industries. From building automation systems to environmental monitoring and essential safety applications, high-quality and accurate commercial wind measuring instruments like sensors and transmitters are required. Comptus manufacturers accurate durable and reliable wind speed instrument and wind direction indicator measuring devices.
Integrating sensors, wind speed and direction indicator devices, wind speed meters and transmitters into system controls allows for automatic control, and conditions notifications. Automatic response to conditions outside normal parameters helps prevent premature system failures or hazardous operational conditions.
Did you know? The average lifespan of a quality commercial grade wind direction instrument, such as an anemometer, under normal conditions is from 40-60,000,000 revolutions, or approximately 3 – 5 years.
Our wind speed instruments and wind direction instruments are built for durability and precision, making them ideal for:
Our wind measuring instruments are trusted across multiple sectors:
We offer various wind measuring device types to meet your specific needs:
Each instrument is engineered for durability, precision, and ease of integration into your systems.

A high-quality wind measuring instrument ensures that your equipment and systems respond accurately to changing wind conditions. Our products are:
Now you can buy instruments used to measure wind direction and speed, such as Comptus wind speed and direction devices online from our E-store.
Yes. Our instruments are designed to handle extreme temperatures, high winds, and harsh environmental conditions.
They are factory-calibrated but can be recalibrated periodically for maximum accuracy.
A wind vane measures wind direction, while an anemometer measures wind speed. Some wind measuring devices combine both functions for complete wind monitoring.
Wind speed is typically measured in meters per second (m/s), kilometers per hour (km/h), or miles per hour (mph). Wind direction is expressed in degrees or compass points.
Yes, most professional-grade wind measuring instruments are weather-resistant or waterproof to handle outdoor conditions year-round.
Wind measuring devices should be mounted in an open area away from obstructions, ideally at a standard height of 10 meters above ground, to ensure accurate readings.
Yes. Many Comptus wind measuring devices are compatible with automation systems, data loggers, and remote monitoring platforms.
Under normal conditions, a high-quality wind measuring instrument lasts 3–5 years or more, depending on the environment and maintenance.
Some devices are mechanical and require no power, while others (like ultrasonic models) need electricity or battery power for operation.
Yes, many are designed for extreme cold and include features to prevent ice buildup.
It’s best to inspect and clean the device every 6–12 months to remove debris and ensure smooth operation.
Yes, there are handheld wind speed instruments for field use, but for continuous monitoring, a fixed, mounted device is recommended.
Comptus is a leading producer of quality wind and industrial environmental sensors, transmitters and controls.
