Wind Measuring Devices

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.
